About the course
Peter Thompson–designed parkland championship layout in Ballarat's Invermay Park
Midlands Gold Course is an 18-hole parkland golf course at Invermay Park, Victoria, Australia, designed by Peter Thompson and established in 2019. The daily-fee layout features wide sweeping fairways, around 29 strategically placed bunkers, picturesque lakes and large undulating greens. On-site facilities include a driving range, pro shop, coaching, cart and club hire, and parking. The clubhouse offers a restaurant and dining with two bistro rooms overlooking the fairways.
Set out as a tree-lined parkland test, Midlands offers a contrast of generous fairways and well-defended greens, with doglegs and water hazards calling for thoughtful play. The course is pitched as a championship challenge for professional and club golfers alike, while remaining welcoming for social and corporate days. Reviewers tend to single out the friendly, efficient staff and the lively, sociable clubhouse atmosphere, where catching up over a drink and watching sport is a popular pastime. Impressions of the Chinese/Australian menu are mixed, with some praising value and portions and others less convinced. Visitors should note that conditioning can soften after heavy rain, though many appreciate the country-club feel and family-friendly surrounds.
