Fancourt is positioned on 613 hectares in the magnificent Garden Route, just outside George, Fancourt is South Africa’s premier lifestyle estate with mountains, indigenous forests and the warm Indian Ocean in close proximity.
The Links at Fancourt was added in 2000, an awe-inspiring example of magnificent design and golf-course construction in true Scottish golfing tradition.
The Links at Fancourt is without doubt the most impressive piece of golf design and construction ever in South Africa.
Fancourt owner Dr Hasso Plattner, who took a very hands-on approach in the creation thereof, commissioned a golf course, which would not only be a thorough test for every golfer, but would also rank among the top courses in the world.
Designed by Gary Player; Player’s design team spent months studying the classic links courses of Scotland and Ireland and then, armed with inspiration from the best that those countries had to offer, embarked on the ambitious task of recreating some of their finest holes to make a genuine links test on what was once an airfield.
