Golf has been part of the Gowrie Farm landscape for more than a century.

By 1923, Gowrie Farm was home to a rudimentary golf course, complete with sand greens and fences built around them to keep the animals out.

Photographs of those early golfers still hang in the clubhouse lounge today — a small record of a game that would, many years later, become an important part of Gowrie Farm once again.

FIVE STAR GUEST REVIEW ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ~ "Best in the Midlands. We stayed 3 nights during the week of July. The bedrooms are spacious, super cosy with heaters, carpets, thick curtains and warm beds. The flat was modern and clean. Had a well stocked fireplace and we really enjoyed staying there. The food at the lodge was delicious. Staff are professional and helpful." - TripAdvisor Review

Gowrie Farm's story begins in 1858, when John King purchased the farm after making his way to the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.

King and his family had arrived in Natal from Scotland nine years earlier. Like many early settlers to the area, farming the Midlands demanded resilience — but it was here that the family established themselves and became part of the early history of the district.

More than 160 years later, the name Gowrie remains...

High praise from Selwyn Nathan, the former Commissioner of the PGA of South Africa — and a statement we’re particularly proud to carry. 💚

Gowrie Farm’s 18-hole course was built in the tradition of classic golf: shaped by the natural features of the land, strategic in its design and intended to reward thoughtful play. 🏌

Spring has arrived at Gowrie Farm, with a few familiar faces out on the course.

Captured by Matt Hoines, these Grey Crowned Cranes are among the many species that share the fairways and surrounding grasslands with us throughout the year.

A respect for the land. A longstanding connection to the game of golf. Gowrie Farm has changed over the years but much of its character has remained.

Today, our 18-hole championship course, The Lodge, The Crofts and the team behind Gowrie Farm continue that story.💚

Where tradition still has its place.
