The Fancourt Hotel & Country Estate is located in the middle of South Africa’s “golf mountain” George, right in the heart of the beloved Garden Route, steep sea cliffs, lonely beaches, deep woods, and a purely tropical landscape. The golf courses at Fancourt are top notch, with two of them designed by the legendary Gary Player. Owner Hasso Plattner (founder of SAP) set out to create a golfer’s paradise with Fancourt – And he succeeded. The 334 rooms of the Country Estate (built in 1847) offer an array of suites and studios of the finest luxury and elegance. Out the windows are the stunning views of Fancourt’s courses, including “The Links”, the site of the famed 2003 President’s Cup, which ended in an unprecedented tie. The three other courses, which are also of championship quality, are the Oeteniqua, Montagu, and Bramble Hill links.
