Richmond Golf Course

Hilly parkland golf with spectacular Barilla Bay views near Hobart

Richmond Golf Course is a private parkland course in Tasmania, Australia, located around 10 minutes from Hobart City, 5 minutes from Hobart Airport, and 3km outside Cambridge on the road to Richmond Village. The layout plays to a par of 55 over 3,742 metres, and overlooks the Barilla Bay waterway. Facilities include a pro shop, a clubhouse, restaurant/dining, and cart hire.

Set on the side of a hill above the Barilla Bay waterway, this country course is best known for its scenery, with players consistently praising the spectacular outlook from across the layout. The fairways and greens are reported to be well kept, and the course is generally described as a fun, enjoyable challenge that golfers are keen to return to. Reviewers repeatedly note how hilly and undulating it is, with steep approaches and elevated greens that get the heart rate up, so a cart is often recommended for those who would rather not earn the views the hard way. Visitors also mention generous open fairways, with some out-of-bounds fence lines worth keeping an eye on. The overall impression is of a small but rewarding parkland course where the setting is the star.
