GOLF CONFERENCING

Fancourt - South Africa’s business playground

Located just outside George on South Africa’s Garden Route, overlooked by the majestic Outeniqua Mountains and surrounded by 613 hectares of pristine countryside, striking landscapes and a staggering coastline, Fancourt is the perfect place to mix business and pleasure.

Fancourt was crowned South Africa’s Leading Resort by World Travel Awards in 2019 and Africa’s and South Africa’s Best Golf Hotel 2020 by World Golf Awards. Fancourt’s warm hospitality, understated luxury and enviable offering of activities and attractions has cemented its reputation as South Africa’s premier lifestyle resort.

While Fancourt needs no introduction to keen golfers and holidaymakers, it is also the perfect venue for conferences, meetings and events. An easy ten minute shuttle from George airport delivers guests to the estate, where modern conference facilities (including a banquet hall, boardrooms, meeting rooms and breakaway options), 5-star service and beautiful accommodation awaits.

Discover genuine comfort at the Fancourt Hotel. Its 115 spacious rooms and suites all blend modern luxury with classic elegance, and the result is a relaxed, comfortable and charming stay – ideal for every type of visitor, from solo business travellers, golfing and special interest groups to conference delegates.

The perfect conference balances hard work, inspiration and networking with downtime and fun. This is where Fancourt really comes into its own. The ultimate business playground, Fancourt offers guests the perfect base from which to explore the Garden Route and the leisure team is on hand to organise anything from wine tastings to Big 5 game drives, boat cruises and more.

Adventure-seeking delegates are able to enjoy mountain biking, horse riding or trail running, or simply keep active by exploring the estate on foot, by bike or Eco Elec Scooter. Two beautiful pools beckon (one heated – perfect for winter or early morning swims), while Fancourt’s fishing dams tantalise anglers with big-mouth black bass.

Of course, Fancourt’s three championship golf courses remain a big drawcard. Each rank in the Top 20 of satop100courses.com in the country, and it is the perfect opportunity for golfers to tick off their ultimate bucket list by playing The Links (one), Montagu (eight) and Outeniqua (184).

Fancourt will happily organise a round of golf (or three) for your team or book a group into The Academy at Fancourt for the ultimate golf lesson – a memorable experience for enthusiasts and novices alike.

If it’s pure relaxation you are after, The Spa at Fancourt soothes and pampers in equal measure. Guests may choose from a range of blissful treatments, or simply relax in the spa’s roman bath and jacuzzi, sauna, steam room or tepidarium. It is a sanctuary like no other and the perfect way to unwind at conference end.

Food also has a starring role at Fancourt. The Garden Route, Klein Karoo and surrounding areas provide a smorgasbord of locally sourced ingredients (think fresh seafood, farm cheeses and organic vegetables) and Fancourt’s chefs pride themselves on delivering an unforgettable dining experience.

La Cantina is every bit as easy-going and Mediterranean as the name suggests. It is home to Fancourt’s hearty buffet breakfasts and ever-popular thin-crust pizzas. Monet’s café is a French-style bistro serving up great coffee, a relaxed, convivial atmosphere and magnificent mountain views. The Club House is the spot for steaks, burgers and cocktails, while Henry White’s at The Manor House promises an evening of culinary excellence.

Ticking all the boxes for safetyconscious travellers, Fancourt feels like a world away from the stresses and strains of everyday life. A beautiful, safe bubble on the Garden Route.
