Kuils River Golf Club

Overview: Kuils River Golf Club is a suburban Cape Town course in the Bottelary area, set among the vineyards, working farms and expanding northern suburbs of the Western Cape. The 18-hole course plays to par 72, with the blue-rated layout measuring about 5,846 yards. Its appeal lies in a practical, playable round close to the city, with enough tree cover, bunkering and changing approach angles to reward a thoughtful strategy.

History: Kuilsrivier Golf Club was officially formed on 9 October 1982 and has developed as a community club serving the northern Cape Town corridor. The club’s continuing identity is tied to regular local golf rather than a single resort concept, which makes it a useful base for golfers exploring the nearby Winelands and Cape metropolitan courses.

Did You Know? Kuils River’s location puts it between two kinds of Cape golf. A golfer can play the course as a city-side parkland round, then reach Stellenbosch’s vineyards and mountain-backed resort courses within the same short regional itinerary.
