The course experience
The Hills Course is laid out across rolling highland terrain, surrounded by native flora and dramatic vistas. Unlike the seaside settings of the Dunes and Bay Courses, this layout focuses on elevation changes, natural contours, and inland tranquillity. The fairways are wide yet deceptive, rewarding players who balance boldness with smart shot selection.
Golfers can enjoy a peaceful yet demanding round, with wide fairways that tempt aggressive play and well-guarded greens that require touch and imagination.
Course facilities
Guests playing the Hills Course will enjoy:
- A modern, eco-conscious clubhouse, designed by renowned architect Lubomír Zeman using local stone for a low-impact footprint and natural harmony
- State-of-the-art practice facilities, including a large driving range and dedicated short game area
- Fully stocked pro shop and premium changing rooms
Signature Holes
Hole 11 - Par 5 The toughest hole on the Hills, this uphill marathon stretches over 500 m. Tee shots must avoid a central oak tree and tricky bunkers. Fairway placement is essential before a long iron launch to a green protected by more bunkers. Post-par, you’ve earned bragging rights.
