St Francis Links, nestled between the dunes of the picturesque coastal town of St Francis Bay, is a Jack Nicklaus – designed masterpiece that will provide any golf enthusiast with an unforgettable experience.
The 400 hectare golfing estate consists of 540 residential properties carefully designed and positioned to complement the 18-hole championship golf course and golf-related and leisure amenities.
St Francis Links is a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course. It was voted the Best New Course in South Africa in 2007 and has been consistently ranked as one of the top 10 golf courses in the country. The Golden Bear, rated by many as the greatest golfer of all time, said St Francis Links may well be “…the best golf course I have ever seen”. The Links surpasses every expectation, every time and is not to be missed on any golfing holiday itinerary.
Age-old golfing traditions combined with modern facilities, a challenging course, pristine natural surrounds and superb personal service, to create a memorable golfing experience where all are most welcome.

Dear Mariska
Euan and Seumus are driving back from the most spectacular weekend ever. Not only was the accommodation first class, but the arrangements you made for their golf exceeded all expectations. Could you please convey their thanks and appreciation to the owners of the guest house.
Without a doubt they will be back, we will check when Seumus has university holidays as we are hoping it will coincide with your March programme.
Thank you so much for everything, you lead the pack when it comes to top notch service.

Dear Mariska
We have just returned to London after a wonderful golf holiday on the Garden Route.
As usual your organisation was faultless and the whole holiday was a seamless experience. We are now trying to adjust to freezing temperatures in UK.
Once again thank you for your superbly organised holiday.

Dear Mariska
Many Many thanks for our most successful holiday. We enjoyed every moment except the one when we had to leave. Now we are at our cottage 600 km north of Espoo where we live. Our first day on skis is over and we start soon to celebrate Christmas. We decided that we will come back next November. I hope that we can rely on Your good sevices.
Meanwhile we wish You a merry Christmas and happy New Year.

Mariska, jy was ‘n ster, dankie vir wat jy alles vir ons gedoen het.
Laat weet my van enige skade wat ons by Ambleside of in die dorp aangerig het sodat ek kan goedmaak!
As daar geld oor is wil ek he jy moet ‘n ekstra R 1000 vir jou moeites uithou.
Weereens dankie. Sien uit na ‘n volgende keer.

viewHi Mariska,
We are back home in UK now, had a great time in SA and everything went well with our golf in the Garden Route, although we managed to change our golf days at Pinnacle Point and George due to ‘torrential downpours’………..much needed I know but it did rain for 5 of the 6 days we were there……though not when we played golf,so all was well.
We will certainly consider using your company again when visiting SA although we might choose different accommodation. The Golf Lodge and Town Lodge were very nice but didn’t quite meet our needs…..but it was all very good value.
Best regards
John
