GOLF in Pennington: SELBOURNE COUNTRY CLUB - To enjoy a round of golf on a course as beautiful and challenging as here you'd have to travel to the famous Augusta National in Georgia. USA - for it was this concept, combining gracious living with the great game of golf, that inspired Dennis Barker to create the South African equivalent. The course has maintained the fine alliance between challenging the low handicapper and providing the average player with a fulfilling experience. Huge indigenous trees flank the manicured fairways and water comes into play on most of the holes, with all but two having views of the sea. UMDONI PARK GOLF CLUB This 18-hole course situated in Pennington on 200 hectares of indigenous coastal forest is renowned for it's fauna and flora and magnificent vistas. SCOTTBURGH GOLF CLUB This undulating course has a most attractive setting with the sight and sound of the Indian ocean always in the background. All of these courses are only a few minutes drive away.
