George Golf Club — Celebrating 120 Years of History, Golf, and Community

This year, George Golf Club proudly celebrates 120 extraordinary years of history, golf, and community! Since its beginnings in 1886 and official opening in 1906, our club has been at the heart of the Garden Route, offering a golfing experience steeped in tradition, breathtaking scenery, and timeless memories. 

Join them as we honour this incredible milestone and celebrate the legacy, camaraderie, and passion that have made George Golf Club one of South Africa’s oldest and most respected courses. 

The George Golf Club – a course cemented in history

Nestled beneath the towering Outeniqua Mountains, our 18-hole, par-72 course combines challenging play with stunning natural beauty. From tree-lined fairways to sparkling dams and well-placed bunkers, every round is a chance to experience golf as it was meant to be—exciting, immersive, and unforgettable. To keep the game enjoyable for everyone, players are encouraged to complete rounds in roughly four hours and twenty minutes, limit tee times to four players, carry a single bag with a sandbag, repair divots and pitch marks, and follow the club’s dress code. 

Feel at home with club facilities 

Beyond the fairways, George Golf Club offers outstanding facilities to make every visit special. Relax in the clubhouse, enjoy a drink or light meal at the 19th Hole, or take in the views from the veranda overlooking the course. The Halfway House serves hearty breakfasts and lunches, while the George Golf Shop is stocked with all the essentials for your game. Caddies and motorised golf carts are available by prior booking to enhance your experience. 

For those extending their visit into the evening, The Firebox Restaurant welcomes guests on Wednesday and Friday nights with delicious dinners in a warm, inviting atmosphere. Whether you’re here for a quick round or a leisurely day with friends, George Golf Club delivers the perfect blend of heritage, hospitality, and outstanding golf—all part of the 120-year story we are proud to celebrate.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
