Steenberg is an exclusive wine estate, hotel and golf course set in the Constantia winelands outside Cape Town. Designed by Peter Matkovich, the golf course takes full advantage of natural features and hazards. The 18-hole championship golf course meanders though the vineyards, pine forests and gentle waterways. Man made streams wind through the course, bisecting fairways or flanking the course. Add to that the massive 'hard bunkers', you have no choice but to either lay-up or try to find an extra few yards on your shots.

The course features three distinct areas: Wetlands, Parklands and Fynbos. The first six holes of the course meander through gentle, manicured parkland where, in some instances, tee shots will be played off raised tee boxes amongst the vines.

The course then moves into the wetlands, which includes the testing par-three 7th hole played to a green surrounded by water. It then enters the Heath land section where white sands "islanding" the fairways are a natural hazard. These massive waste bunkers can be treated as fairway as you are allowed to ground your club.

The 14th is another par 3 but this time virtually surrounded by bunker. Purportedly the biggest green in Africa, an accurate tee shot is critical.

The round is completed under the splendour of stately oaks back towards the clubhouse and the 18th green which is guarded by water.

The practice facilities, including a driving range, are just across from the pro shop and adjacent to the 1st tee.
