What makes Kinross Golf Club unique, and what kind of golfer will enjoy it most?
Kinross offers a surprisingly challenging layout, especially with its cleverly placed bunkers and the subtle undulations on the greens. It's a true test of your short game, demanding precision rather than brute force, which we find incredibly rewarding.

You'll find Kinross Golf Club offers excellent value, especially compared to some of the more high-profile courses in the region. The green fees are very reasonable for a course that's consistently well-maintained and provides a genuine challenge, making it a smart choice for your budget.
What's the clubhouse experience like at Kinross, and what should I plan for after my round?
After your round, the Kinross clubhouse is a welcoming spot to unwind. We always grab a cold local beer and a 'braaibroodjie' - a toasted sandwich that's a South African staple - on the veranda, overlooking the 18th green.

Kinross is quite accessible, located just a comfortable drive east of Johannesburg, making it an easy day trip if you're based in the city. The roads are generally good, but we always recommend allowing extra time for potential traffic, especially on weekends.
