Erinvale Golf Estate lays at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains, overlooking the green suburbs of Somerset West. Overall, Erinvale Golf Estate has 150 hectares of property but houses for sale take up only 50 hectares. The golf course, designed by Gary Player, makes up the difference. Conceived as one of South Africa’s first residential golfing developments, Erinvale Golf Estate was established in 1990. The golf course opened in 1995 and has played host to the 1996 World Cup of Golf and two SA Open Championships. Forming part of the Cape Winelands, the area’s appeal is further boosted by nature reserves, including the Helderberg Nature Reserve, in every direction.
