About Harrismith Country Club
The Harrismith Country Club is a wonderfully kept course in the humble town of Harrismith only an hour from Clarens. The golf course, famously known for being the third oldest in South Africa, enjoys a wonderful backdrop of the Harrismith Plateau and provides sweeping views over the rest of the town.
The club was originally constructed in 1887 and enjoys a fascinating history, right from its beginning when the town of Harrismith managed to somehow be even smaller than it is today.
The par 72 course is built to a parklands spec with two tee options, one 6529 yards and the other 5446 yards. Visitors are welcome every day of the week, year round.
Book your accommodation in Harrismith and your tee-off ahead to avoid disappointment.
Other facilities at Harrismith include a bar, halfway house, clubhouse and banquet facilities.
