Location: An easy, scenic 45 minutes drive from South Africa’s beautiful city, Cape Town, standing amongst the vineyards of the legendary 300 year-old wine region and culinary capital of Franschhoek.
   
Description: Pearl Valley Golf Estate is a Jack Nicklaus-designed, 170-hectare championship golf course lying in the heart of the Cape Winelands. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Drakenstein Mountains, it is one of the most visually spectacular golf courses in the world – and one of the most challenging in Africa.

Nicklaus has worked closely with nature and has provided a golf course that fits in with the environment. This fairly flat and largely uninterrupted terrain enabled Nicklaus the freedom to develop hole strategies making this a golf course the golfer has to think his way around.
