Selborne Golf Estate, Hotel & Spa

A stately manor house surrounded by indigenous coastal forest is the tranquil setting of this luxury golf estate, hotel and health spa, close to the warm Indian Ocean and near Durban in South Africa. As part of the famous ‘Golf Coast’, keen golfers can use Selborne as a base from which to enjoy playing a variety of superb golf courses around Durban. We recommend Selborne as part of our popular Zulu Kingdom Golfing Itinerary.

Selborne was created in 1985 when Denis Barker was inspired to turn his dairy stud farm into the first golf estate in South Africa. His intent was clear, preserve the rich flora and fauna surrounding the manor house. Woven around the natural rock and contours and verdant indigenous coastal forest – home to duiker, mongoose, bushbuck and over 160 bird species – Selborne offers unequalled natural beauty and tranquility.

Enjoy a game of tennis or golf on the Selborne course, then cool off in the sparkling swimming pool at the estate or take the shuttle service to Selborne’s private Beach Club situated 3 kilometres from the hotel on the sandy shores of Pennington Beach.

Indulge yourself and your partner with a treatment in the double therapy room at the health and beauty spa, or at the private beach club to the soothing sounds of the ocean.

Reviews

In our opinion: Selborne offers 4* accommodation and service can be a little off the mark sometimes. However the rooms are large and pleasant, perfect for golfers that want to explore the area. The course is excellent and is a nice retreat for a couple of nights.
