A golf club founded in 1916 that plays on an 18-hole course in Berhampore, five minutes south of Wellington city. The layout makes the most of the contours of the hills inside the Wellington Town Belt, and the course has views of the city and the south coast. The course is open to the public from dawn to dusk, and there is no need to book a tee time. Practice facilities are open to members and green fee players alike.
The club also runs disc golf, tai chi, bowls and all abilities golf. It operates on the course through a strong relationship with Wellington City Council, and it describes itself as one of the most affordable clubs in Wellington, with flexible payment options. Its junior membership is strong, and some members play into their 80s. The club is a member of Clubs New Zealand, which gives reciprocal visits to about 300 clubs. It is at 80 Stanley Street, Berhampore, Wellington 6023. Our pick in Wellington for a round on a hillside course with a view.
