What to do while you're here

Golf: Holiday Guest House is situated in the Langebaan Country Club on the beautiful 18-hole mashie course. Our 18-hole Mashie Course consists of a short and tricky first 9 holes with pesky water features and canny slopes. The second 9 holes are all longer between 100 metres and 160 metres, providing a challenge for even the most discerning golfer – all holes ranging from 58m to 91m. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by parents. Also nearby, is the Country Estate, “Black Knight”, 18-hole links-type well-draining Championship Course. The Postberg Nature Reserve, also know as the Postberg Flower Reserve, is situated within the West Coast National Park in Langebaan. It is closed for most of the year, but is opened to the public during spring (August – September) where one can view the awe-inspiring, exceptional carpet of spring flowers in the reserve. Another positive aspect of the limited opening times is that there is game here that hasn’t quite learned to shy away from humans. Keep an eye out for zebra, wildebeest, antelope, ostrich, mongoose, rock hyrax, snakes, birds, and tortoises. The picnic and braai spots along the coast are fantastic for whale watching. Swimming and watersports in the turquoise Langebaan lagoon: The lagoon is rich in produce supporting important fisheries businesses, the largest seafood farming projects in SA and not forgetting fun coastal activities like fishing, windsurfing, kitesurfing and boardsailing. The lagoon is shallow and largely protected from the open ocean, so unlike the rest of the Atlantic coastline, there is usually little in the way of wave action and currents, which makes it perfect for children and people with limited water proficiency.
