Roseville Golf Course

Picturesque private parkland tracing a sandstone escarpment above Garigal National Park

Roseville Golf Course is a private 18-hole parkland course in Roseville Chase, New South Wales, designed by Arthur Downes and established in 1923. The course winds along an ancient sandstone escarpment surrounded by native bushland, with views across the valleys and creeks of Garigal National Park and Middle Harbour. Its signature 5th hole plays downhill over Moore's Creek, and the layout features around 51 mapped bunkers. Facilities include a pro shop, restaurant and dining, club hire, coaching, and parking.

Players consistently describe Roseville as beautifully manicured, praising fairways and greens that stay lush even through dry spells. Though it plays a touch shorter than many A-grade clubs, reviewers warn against underestimating it: blind shots, doglegs, and narrow fairways guarded by strategically placed bunkers reward accurate, well-planned golf, and many recommend studying the course map before teeing off. The large, well-protected greens are regularly singled out as a genuine test of skill. Beyond the course, the club enjoys a reputation for a warm, social atmosphere, with a recently refreshed function space, a good bar, and a welcoming clubhouse rounding out the experience.
