Victoria Country Club

ABOUT US

Less than fifteen minutes from the CBD of Pietermaritzburg, the Victoria Country Club is superbly located in the scenic parklands adjoining the Queen Elizabeth Nature Reserve, and above all, boasts one of South Africa’s most picturesque golfing venues.

The course meanders attractively through rolling terrain combining parkland and grassland habitats saturated with scenic beauty. Spectacular views of the surrounding escarpments and verdant valleys provide for an uplifting and rewarding golfing experience.

The recently upgraded course is a true test of golf, and contains some of the prettiest holes in the Province.

A prolific wildlife community including Crowned Eagles, African Goshawks, Black Sparrow hawks, nesting Thick billed weavers and Duiker and Bushbuck enhance the club’s magnificent views.

Victoria Country Club provides world-class conference, function and dining facilities, up-market accommodation, a champion golf course, squash, tennis and swimming.

“The Victoria Country Club is the “jewel” of the Midlands, quite simply, the place to be. You will experience the excitement of our superb facilities, our service excellence, and the sought-after-world-class golf course, within the Club’s safe and tranquil surroundings.

Whether gathering with friends and family, or networking business opportunities, we are the ideal destination.”

Golf:

The Golf Course is a par 71 course measuring 6156 meters. The course was reopened after an upgrade in April 2007, having been remodelled by Golf Data, one of South Africa's leading golf course design and construction companies. The upgrade included the total reshaping and reconstruction, to USGA specification, of all the greens which were planted with Bent grass Penn A1. Extensive storage dams were added creating, impressive and attractive waterholes. A fully automated irrigation system was installed. The course is now rated in the Top 10 in KZN and in the top 60 in South Africa and is able to offer a world-class golfing experience all year round.
