Golf Courses
Golf that fits your time and your style of play. Whether you’re looking for a traditional round or a quicker, more relaxed option, our golf courses are designed to make the game easy to enjoy.
Our Hutt Park full 9-hole course offers a genuine golf experience that’s walkable, welcoming, and ideal for regular play, quick rounds, or looping twice when time allows. For something shorter and more casual, our Ellerslie 9-hole pitch & putt course is perfect for sharpening your short game, learning the fundamentals, or introducing new players to golf.
We also offer family-friendly formats, including standard holes for experienced golfers, big-hole options to help beginners and juniors build confidence, and footgolf for those wanting a fun, social alternative using a football instead of a golf ball.
Accessible, flexible, and designed for golfers of all ages and abilities, our courses make it easy to play more golf - and enjoy every round.
Affiliated Golf NZ memberships are available, providing an official handicap and access to affiliated green-fee rates nationwide.
