The Manor House at Fancourt: Garden Route Golf in a Victorian Manor

The Manor House at Fancourt is an exclusive Victorian manor within the Fancourt golf estate on South Africa's Garden Route, near George. Its guests enjoy private access to three championship courses, including The Links at Fancourt, regularly rated among the country's very best and a former Presidents Cup venue.

The estate's dining is generous. Henry White's is the refined four-course table under chef Desmond Morgan, La Cantina serves traditional Italian with wood-fired pizzas, Monet's is a cafe-bistro over the Outeniqua greens, and the Club Lounge, the estate's '19th hole,' pours club-style fare from morning until midnight.

For golfers, few South African addresses match it; for everyone else, the Garden Route setting is reason enough.
