Frequently Asked Questions
When's the best time of year to experience Belmont Valley Golf Club?

Is Belmont Valley a good course for all skill levels, or is it more suited for experienced players?
While Belmont Valley offers a fair test for seasoned golfers, don't let that deter you if you're newer to the game. With multiple tee boxes, you can choose a length that suits your ability, and the wider fairways on the front nine offer a forgiving start.
Can I expect any unique South African scenery or wildlife encounters at Belmont Valley?
Absolutely, and it's one of the course's real charms. Keep an eye out for local birdlife and even some antelope grazing peacefully near the rough-it adds a wonderful, authentic South African touch to your round. The views of the surrounding hills are pretty spectacular too.
How does the green fee at Belmont Valley compare, and is it good value for money?
You'll find Belmont Valley offers excellent value, especially compared to some of the more resort-style courses in South Africa. The green fees are very reasonable for the quality of the course and the overall experience, making it a local favorite for a reason.
