Title: A Mixed Experience at Fancourt Golf Course

Rating: ⭐⭐☆☆☆ (2/5)

I recently had the opportunity to visit Fancourt, touted as the best golf course in South Africa. While the picturesque surroundings and challenging course were impressive, I can't ignore the disappointments I encountered during my visit.

Not one of the four dishes I've had at this restaurant has been good. For such a prestigious establishment there is MUCH room for improvement for the chefs, felt very amateurish. Service and...

As a non-hotel guest make sure you reserve a table at The Club Lounge, should you wish to dine there. From arriving at the gate each and staff member was very friendly and the security kindly arranged that a gold cart collect us at the parking area, which is quite a walk to the main building. The building and grounds are in pristine condition, which adds to the experience at The Club Lounge. I ordered a Chicken Mayo on homemade bread with chips and my fiance the Chicken Schnitzel with chips and a side of mixed vegetables. Everything...
