Why Fancourt Hotel & Spa is so special...

Golf

There is no doubt that Fancourt Hotel & Spa is one of South Africa's premier golf resorts, featuring no fewer than three championship courses. Since opening in the early 1990s with just 27 Gary Player-designed holes, Fancourt's Outeniqua and Montagu golf courses have matured and developed into two of the finest 18-hole parkland layouts in the country and a round on either is a special experience, sculpted and finished with rare attention-to-detail and designed with the coastal George winds in mind. The Links is an awe-inspiring example of magnificent design and golf-course construction, about which designer Gary Player says, "Links golf is how the game originated and at The Links, we take golfers back to the roots of golf - and they can play a 'British Open' all of their own!"

Climate

Blessed with a Mediterranean maritime climate, summers here are warm to hot, whilst winters are mild to cold. Winter rainfall is high compared with other regions, due to the Indian Ocean’s humid sea-winds. Come off-season for a quiet winter escape, or in summer for a fun-filled South African adventure!

Getting There

Flight Information
British Airways direct from London Heathrow to Cape Town.

Flight Time
From London Heathrow to Cape Town: 11 hours, 30 minutes.

Wildlife

The Garden Route is a prime spot for watching marine mammals from land or boats, with annual visits from Humpback and Southern Right Whales, as well as year-round sightings of playful dolphins and a resident breeding colony of Cape Fur Seals. Plettenberg Bay is a wonderful location from which to watch these marvellous sea creatures perform their graceful ocean acrobatics. Bird-watching is also hugely popular, the area housing an amazing array of species - including the Emerald Cuckoo, Chorister Robin, Knysna Woodpecker, Forest Buzzard and Half-Collared Kingfisher.

Wildlife
Adventure

Ideal for outdoorsy types, expect countless watersports options, as well as world-class golf and tennis, treetop canopy tours, rafting, kayaking and miles of trails for hikers, bikers and riders. A top spot for exploring is Knysna Heads, an extraordinary geological feature where the sea gushes through sandstone cliffs into a lagoon. Another is the Knysna Forest, a swathe of greenery brimming with old trees and exotic species, an original stomping ground of elephants.

Adventure
Beach

For pristine crescents of snow-white sand and panoramic ocean views, Plettenberg Bay is the grand finale of our Garden Route journey, boasting a choice of beaches - from shallow lagoon areas for tiny-feet paddlers, to scooping hotspots for surfers and body-boarders. What’s more, this picturesque corner of the coast has been voted South Africa’s ‘Best Beach Location’ for five years consecutively. Four of them boast Blue Flag status: Lookout Beach, Nature’s Valley, Robberg 5 and Keurboomstrand.

Beach
Gourmet

A natural larder of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and fish, the Garden Route skirts prime land and sea for a scrumptious epicurean experience. Sample mussels from Mossel Bay, succulent steaks from Little Karoo and oysters from Knysna Lagoon, all washed down with stunning local wines. With luck, your trip may coincide with Knysna’s annual oyster festival, showcasing delectable seafood and other fine produce from the region.
