You might have heard the latest news — Trump Turnberry is planning to charge £ 1,000 for a single round of golf. While Turnberry is known for its beautiful course, this steep price this got me thinking: what else could you get for that amount?
For the same £1,000 I had a look and we can arrange a 9-night stay at the luxurious 5-star Fancourt Resort in South Africa, and that includes daily rounds of golf, yes that’s 9 rounds of quality golf on the Montagu and Outeniqua courses. Set along the stunning Garden Route, Fancourt offers a mix of luxury, scenic beauty, and top-notch golfing. Fancourt is a premium golf resort that has hosted the Presidents Cup and the South African Open and one of my personal favourite places to stay and play.
I had a look at the Speciality Afternoon Tea on offer at Turnberry – a whopping £70 per person, at Fancourt you’ll get lunch and a few beers plus a sumptuous three course dinner including a bottle of wine for way less.
Add a few more days playing a few good courses in Scotland and you could spend less going on safari playing at the world class Leopard Creek at Kruger National Park. All in all this just shows why the number of golfers visiting South Africa continues to grow and grow.
