About Fancourt — Montagu Course Golf Course

The Montagu Course at Fancourt Hotel and Country Club Estate is the original championship layout at South Africa's most celebrated resort destination, predating the more famous Links by three years and providing a contrasting parkland character on the same George estate. Designed by Gary Player and opened in 1997, Montagu winds through mature trees and across the Malgas River, with hole after hole of beautifully framed parkland golf in the foothills above the Garden Route town of George. The Outeniqua Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop throughout, and the course benefits from the same impeccable Fancourt conditioning standards that have made the resort one of Africa's premier golf destinations. While the Links draws the headlines for its championship pedigree and Presidents Cup hosting, Montagu is arguably the more pleasant daily-fee experience — more forgiving in places, with a gentler character that rewards ball-strikers without requiring the precision of links golf in a wind. Both Fancourt courses are available to resort guests as part of a comprehensive stay package.
