Windross Farm Golf Course is conveniently located half an hour outside of Auckland's
central business district, and is easily accessible on the motorway from the
Airport and either the Manukau, Botanical Gardens or Takanini off-ramps.
Golfers
can look forward to being completely surrounded by lush green landscapes and
gorgeous tree-lined hills, meandering 60 hectares of unspoilt countryside. A purposeful
design of Windross Farm incorporates a distinctive links-style course,
featuring man-made lakes, strategically placed bunkers, wetlands, rugged fescue
covered mounds between the holes and a mixture of fluctuating and level ground,
all with a view of offering the finest golf in the most spectacular setting.
This careful and deliberate design has resulted in a superlative playing
surface across the trimmed areas, and simultaneously injected spectacular
contrast in texture and boosted the natural vistas.
Aside
from the swirling greens, bunkers and absence of trees, a highlighted
characteristic is the dominant water features in multiple forms. It boasts four
large lakes entwined with several streams navigating their way through
breathtaking wetlands. Other aspects that came into high consideration when
developing this golf course, was the drainage aspect, which was well accounted
for during the construction phase. In addition, the effortless walking path
makes the course all the more playable during the whole year.
The
off-course features of the Clubhouse and its facilities are designed in an
understated and minimalistic style, adding to the appeal of this unique new
golf course development.
On
offer is outstanding short game practice facilities with two putting greens, a
chipping green surrounded by bunkers of various styles, closely mown fairway
approaches and fescue rough. A driving range facility, with eight fully covered
wet weather bays, offers a full-length range complete with various practice targets.
The ideal facilities to better your game!
The
Cafe & Bar whips up a full English breakfast, decadent buttermilk pancakes
and eggs benedict for a hearty start to the day. Lunchtime treats include
Moroccan lamb sliders, quesadillas, chorizo risotto, and delectable corn
fritters - to name a few. If you’re looking for something quick and on-the-go,
opt for one of their salami, pickles and Swiss cheese sandwiches - bound to hit
the spot! The beverage menu includes chai lattes, Hot Chocolate, Cappuccinos,
Earl Grey, Green Tea, Chamomile and the likes. They also have a stunning
selection of organic sparkling juices to quench your thirst.
