- Steenberg Golf Course
Cape Winelands Estate Golf beneath the Constantiaberg Mountains
Steenberg offers an exquisitely calm, vineyard-framed round in historic Constantia — immaculate fairways set against the Constantiaberg slopes, with award-winning wine farms and refined hospitality minutes from Cape Town’s city-center. It is a quietly luxurious experience that favors space, poise and polished service over spectacle.
General Course Information
Area and Setting
Nestled in the leafy Constantia Valley, Steenberg is framed by vineyards, historic Cape Dutch architecture and a dramatic mountain backdrop. The atmosphere is refined and serene — a discreet escape that pairs naturally with cellar tastings, contemporary dining and artful hospitality.
Fairways weave between wetlands and vines, with birdlife and mountain light shaping the mood through the day. It’s a sophisticated Cape Town base for travelers who value culinary excellence and design-forward accommodation alongside serious, beautifully presented golf.
Layout and Signature Holes
The routing is an elegant parkland with strategic water and sculpted bunkering. Precision into subtly contoured greens is rewarded, while wind off the peninsula can add nuance to club selection. Lakeside par-threes and vineyard-edged approaches create quietly cinematic moments without breaking the estate’s calm rhythm.
Best Time of Year for a Round
Cape Town’s Mediterranean climate favors late spring to early autumn. Peak months are December–February (warm, dry, long days). Shoulder seasons March–May and October–November offer mild temperatures, softer light and excellent course presentation. Winter (June–September) brings green hills, cool air and occasional rain between clear, still days.
