De Zalze golfcourse was our first course to golf on in SA. The views were wonderful and the course well kept. The course in itself was challenging with horizontal slopes (from left to right over the length of some holes). I found most of the holes similar to another.

Thanks for choosing De Zalze as your first course to play in South Africa and we are glad you enjoyed your visit to DZ. We hope that by the time you have visited many other courses in SA your lasting impression of De Zalze will be changed to above average :).... Hope to see you again soon. Dave More

Wow what a great course. Felt like we belonged there. Everyone was friendly and helpful besides a great course. The club rentals were the best I have ever had. Brand new Taylormade. If you are a golfer in the wine area stop here.

Played DZ a couple of years ago when the greens were appalling. Decided to give it another go this year, and as the title says - what a change! Course in excellent condition and fully enjoyed our round there. Was up there alongside the other quality courses we played during our month in the Winelands, which included Erinvale, Pearl Valley...

Many thanks for visiting us again and your positive review. Its always appreciated when our guests provide us with feedback and we are so pleased that our encounter with anthracnose 2 years ago which resulted in dead patches in our greens ( for 6 weeks) did not deter you forever. We certainly look forward to meeting you in person and... More

Really enjoyed playing this course, some lovely holes but we made the mistake of walking!! Take a buggy it's very hilly and from green to tee is a good walk, it's in great condition and the staff are very friendly and helpful fantastic views

Thank you for reviewing De Zalze. We hope to make it extra special the next time you visit. Our course is frequently rated in excellent condition considering the summer drought in the W Cape area - Mediterranean climate. Many thanks More

Close to Stellenbosch you will find the beautiful Estate of De Zalze. The golf course has been there before the houses and "in the old days" it was a great duo of combining golf with food and wine tasting at Kleine Zalze Winery next door. Since then the golf course has been extended and houses added. The whole experience is... More
