A combination of Old World charm and contemporary luxury is what makes the Fancourt Hotel so distinctive. Guests can choose between a room in the beautifully restored Manor House or one of the many stately Garden Suites and Studios.
The Garden Suites and Studios offer guests the chance to rest in a peaceful garden setting, while at the Manor House, you will find a restful haven in a building with a history dating back to the beginning of the 19th century. In 1847 Henry Fancourt White established a workers’ base at the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains for the construction of the Montagu Pass. The Manor House with its thirty four bedrooms is situated in wooded parkland and is now a National Monument.
There is no doubt that Fancourt is one of South Africa’s premier golf resorts, featuring three highly rated Championship golf courses as well as the Western Cape’s premier 18-hole public course. Since opening in the early 90’s with just 27 Gary Player-designed holes, Outeniqua and Montagu golf courses have matured and developed into two of the finest 18-hole parkland layouts in the country. A round on either is a special experience, sculpted and finished as they are with rare attention to detail and designed with the coastal George winds in mind.
The Links at Fancourt was added in 2000, an awe-inspiring example of magnificent design and golf-course construction, about which designer Gary Player says: “Links golf is how the game originated and at The Links we take golfers back to the roots of golf – and they can play a ‘British Open’ all of their own!”
Lastly, Bramble Hill was added, a course that is distinctly Fancourt, yet has a friendly character all of its own. It is a course that can be tackled by beginner and seasoned campaigner alike, without the intimidation and pressure so often associated with celebrated championship courses.
