Tee up to play on the magnificent David Frost signature golf course which is the first 27-hole golf course layout in the Western Cape of South Africa. From the Boschenmeer golf course in Paarl, beautiful views of the the majestic Paarl Franschhoek mountain range can be enjoyed.  Mature trees, artfully conceived water features, and the scenic Berg River complement the challenging game of golf on this course. 

Boschenmeer blends the experience of natural beauty with playability in a way that is set to achieve world renown. The golf course designer David Frost has created a golf course in the Cape Wineland of true championship standard. At the same time he has achieved a first class golfing experience that will both challenge the low handicap and scratch golfer, yet not be too daunting for the less experienced golfer. The 27-hole golf course layout lends itself to championship play, with more simultaneous rounds possible. 

Pro-golfer David Frost grew up in the Paarl and Franschhoek region of South Africa and has become an integral part of the Paarl Golf Club, where he first played as a school member. This top professional golfer has brought his years of skill, knowledge and international experience of playing various golf courses, and incorporated his knowledge with the golf course design team to create this magnificent 27-hole golf course which consists of the "Berg River Nine" (1-9), the "Paarl Nine" (10-18), and the new "Boschenmeer Nine" (19-27).

Boschenmeer also offers a high-tech golf academy and driving range, as well as a state-of-the-art club house. Other estate facilities include a swimming pool, floodlit tennis courts, and playroom for children.
 

De Zalze Winelands Golf Estate, Stellenbosch (Cape Winelands, South Africa)

The name ‘De Zalze’ originates from the early wine farmers who produced wines on the three adjoining farms, namely Kleine Zalze, Groote Zalze and De Vleie, in the Cape Winelands region of South Africa. The historical buildings on the De Zalze Winelands Golf Estate date back to 1838.

De Zalze Golf Course opened in November 2000 under the name Spier Country Club. It was only in December 2003 with the opening of the new clubhouse that it changed its name to be De Zalze Golf Club, in line with the De Zalze Winelands Golf Estate development. Spier, together with Kleine Zalze, have redesigned the estate to make it one of the most sought after golf real estate properties in the Cape Winelands and South Africa.
