A par 72 championship layout designed by John Darby, in consultation with New Zealand golfing legend, Sir Bob Charles, the course combines elements of links golf inspired by the great Scottish courses with parkland golf more reminiscent of Florida.

Based at the foothills of the Southern Alps, there are very few scenic alpine courses like it. The signature hole is the 16th, where the fairway clings to the side of the Rakaia Gorge and includes spectacular views of the Rakaia River and the towering Mt Hutt. What a spectacle !
