ARABELLA GOLF CLUB Near Kleinmond, Western Cape, South Africa (www.westerncapehotelandspa.co.za)
The site at Arabella Country Estate was originally stony farmland infested with invasive species like Port Jackson Willows. “ You could not even walk next to the lagoon', said Peter, who as a result had to bring in a huge amount of topsoil and also create features over the gently sloping land. Attention to detail was paramount in building the course to the high standards set by the client and great care was taken to prevent seepage of chemicals into the lagoon - the estate has received international ISO 14001 quality certification for its environmental management program.
Style: Parkland, Par 72, 1999
