InnsCape on Castle Hotel is a Luxury Boutique Hotel situated in the heart of beautiful Cape Town’s vibrant city center. This contemporary luxury hotel nestles in quiet Castle Street, just a few steps from the renowned Greenmarket Square and iconic Long Street. A coming-together of cultures, cuisines and landscapes, there’s nowhere quite like Cape Town, a singularly beautiful city crowned by the resplendent Table Mountain. Table Mountain defines the city. The flat-topped mountain is the headline act, but there are many other equally gorgeous natural landscapes within the park’s extensive boundaries. Cultivated areas, such as the historic Company’s Garden, Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden and Green Point Urban Park, also make exploring the city a pleasure. Follow the lead of locals by taking full advantage of the
abundant outdoor space: learn to surf; go hiking or mountain biking; tandem-paraglide off Lion’s Head; abseil off the top of Table Mountain – just a few of the many activities on offer. “InnsCape Hotels mix the classic hotel feel with a modern vibe by combining old school hospitality and charm with Cape Town’s funky new architectural style. Join them for a luxury stay while you shy away from the conventional without compromising on quality.” TNT Hospitality Solutions Located in a heritage building dating from the art deco era but its interior has been brought up to date to meet the travel requirements of the modern traveller.

Previous hosts of the World Amateur Team Championship in 2006, the 2006 SA Amateur and more recently the 2019 SA Strokeplay, De Zalze is one of the most scenic golf estates, enjoying a beautiful setting outside Stellenbosch, with mountains as a backdrop. Golfing history was made at De Zalze in 2006 when the South African women’s team won the Espirito Santo Trophy at the 2006 World Team Champs, the only time South Africa has triumphed at this biennial event. Some of the Cape’s finest accommodation is available at De Zalze Estate set in a pictureperfect valley with a choice of two excellent venues. The selfcatering De Zalze Lodge overlooking the first fairway is
88 88
the farm’s very own Cape Dutch vernacular style guest lodge. The Winelands Golf Lodge is located immediately alongside the clubhouse and fronts onto the 10th fairway of the course. De Zalze’s iconic clubhouse terrace overlooks a hilly slope of vineyards and white-walled homes with their high pitches and gables exude a distinct architectural character. There are two attractive large storage dams on the course with a river running through the property. A working wine farm, the Kleine Zalze winery, is part of the estate with its award-winning Terroir restaurant. This Peter Matkovich course is striking in its varying range of holes and superb conditioning.
The fairways are generously wide, yet the approaches to greens require precise shotmaking. Water hazards guard three of the par 3’s. It has an excellent array of risk-and-reward par 5’s, notably the 17th where the river forms a shallow ravine in front of the green. The 18th is not only one of the best short par 4’s in the country, but stunning to look at. The championship tee (308 meters) is high on a hill among the vineyards, and only a long confident drive will carry the river to get close to the green. Players laying up short of the hazard must avoid an ancient tall oak close to the riverbank which serve as a sentinel protecting the green.
