About the course
Picturesque parkland gem in the Southern Highlands, est. 1901
Bowral Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-69 parkland course in Bowral, New South Wales, Australia, established in 1901. The public club sits in the Southern Highlands and welcomes members and guests. Facilities include a driving range, pro shop, restaurant/dining, cart hire and coaching.
Players consistently describe Bowral as a picturesque, tranquil parkland course set amongst rolling hills and colourful, well-established treelined fairways, with many calling it a hidden gem. The conditioning earns regular praise, with fairways and greens reported in good shape, though the small, domed, fast greens are often noted as a genuine challenge that rewards thoughtful play. Reviewers highlight an interesting, varied layout, with a mix of straight holes and dog-legs and a front nine some find tougher than the back. The pro shop and staff come up repeatedly for their warm, friendly welcome, and the historic clubhouse with its log fire and 18th-green views adds to the experience. Overall the reputation is of a relaxed, scenic country round with strong hospitality and consistently well-kept grounds.
