Helderberg Village Golf Club

A nine-hole course inside a Somerset West estate, open to visitors on days other than Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.

Holes18
Par70
Visitor accessRestricted days

Three days are out. The club’s own booking form states no Monday, Wednesday or Saturday, and the site refers to dedicated members-only days, so plan around the other four.

Booking is an enquiry rather than an instant tee time, and the estate screens visitors at the gate. Be expected rather than turning up.

Helderberg Village Golf Club
The course

Nine holes with alternate tees, added in the mid-1990s, which allow a full eighteen-hole round over the same ground. The club publishes no par.

Playing Helderberg Village as a visitor

This is worth being precise about, because the estate is a private one. The club’s fee card carries a standalone Visitors line, split affiliated and non-affiliated, listed separately from the member’s guest and guests-of-residents lines. Those two require a host; the plain visitor line does not.

The club also publishes temporary three and six-month visitor memberships and a formal non-resident membership application, so it provides for outside players by design rather than by exception.

Group play is taken by special arrangement, from sixteen players up to sixty four. Clubs, push and pull trolleys, golf carts and lockers are all available at published visitor rates.

What is on site

The clubhouse carries a lounge, a billiard room, a ladies bar, patios and recently refurbished changing rooms.

Facilities

The course belongs to a gated over-50s lifestyle estate, so its clubhouse doubles as a residents' hub, with lounges, a restaurant and coffee shop, a bar and separate ladies' bar, a billiard room and outdoor patios; changing rooms and showers were recently refurbished. Beyond golf, the estate has bowling greens, two tennis courts, croquet lawns, four swimming pools, a library and walking routes.

Highlights

  • A standalone visitor green fee with no member or resident host needed
  • Nine holes with alternate tees for a full eighteen-hole round
  • Clubs, trolleys, carts and lockers all for hire at published visitor rates
  • Three and six-month temporary memberships available to non-residents

Frequently asked questions

Can non-residents play Helderberg Village Golf Club?

Yes. The club's fee card carries a standalone Visitors line, split affiliated and non-affiliated, listed separately from the member's guest and guests-of-residents categories that do require a host. The plain visitor line carries no such condition.

Which days can visitors play Helderberg Village Golf Club?

Any day except Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. The club's own booking form states no Monday, Wednesday or Saturday, and the site refers to those as dedicated members-only days.

Is there an age restriction to play golf at Helderberg Village?

No. The estate has an age qualification for living there, but nothing published applies an age condition to visiting golfers. The two are separate questions.

How many holes is Helderberg Village Golf Club?

Nine, with alternate tees added in the mid-1990s so the course can be played twice for a full eighteen-hole round. The club publishes no par figure.

Where can I find Helderberg Village Golf Club green fees?

In the club's fees PDF, linked from the estate's golf page. The current card runs 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027 and separates affiliated from non-affiliated visitors. An older 2025 card is still live on the site, so check the dates.
