The King David Mowbray Golf Club Experience

Played underneath the watchful eye of Table Mountain, King David Mowbray is a parkland course dating back to 1910, which provides an excellent test of golf for players of all abilities. As a multiple host of the South African Open, the layout can be set up to test the very best golfers in the country or with tees further forward, it can play host to new golfers and the younger generation coming through.

The central location allows a short journey to the amenities of the Waterfront or the arrivals lounge of Cape Town's International Airport. While designed on a fairly flat landscape, the tree-lined fairways and water features combined with Cape winds make for an experience rarely matched.

Navigating the wind is key to ‘going low’ at King David Mowbray where the holes have been laid out in a way that you will seldom find yourself with the wind directly into or behind you.

The fairways consist predominantly of kikuyu while the greens are a hybrid which provide an excellent putting surface all year around.

The healthy membership base is always encouraging of visitors to enjoy a morning or afternoon round of golf as King David Mowbray has long been a destination for tourists to experience golf with Table Mountain as the spectator.

Through it’s storied history, KDM has hosted the likes of Bobby Locke, Gary Player, the late Seve Ballesteros, Vijay Singh (a winner of the Bell's Cup), Sir Nick Faldo, Lee Trevino and The Big Easy himself, Ernie Els. Now it is your turn to walk the same fairways as so many greats of the game have done before you.
