Summerhill Estate Golf Course and Recreation Area, located in Papamoa, offers a stunning and relaxed golfing experience with breathtaking sea views and picturesque park-like surroundings. Established over 20 years ago, this destination has been recently developed by the Procter family into a high-quality New Zealand-affiliated golf course, catering to both beginner and experienced golfers.
The owners have built on the existing beauty of the location and created a welcoming space for the wider community to enjoy. Summerhill Estate strives to provide a golfing experience free from the rigid formality often associated with traditional courses. They aim to offer great golf on a quality course, complemented by incredible views and fabulous hospitality.
The 36-par, 9-hole golf course measures 2480 metres and is affiliated with New Zealand golf. Its layout features undulating fairways that reward risk-takers and challenge golfers of all skill levels. Green-fee paying golfers are warmly welcomed to visit and experience golfing in the peaceful and relaxed environment that Summerhill offers.
The course provides self-serve EFTPOS facilities for golfers, conveniently available from 6am to 9pm during the summer period. Additionally, there is a kiosk and café with an outdoor pavilion area that is open every day. This is the perfect place for golfers and visitors to enjoy refreshing cold drinks, a light lunch, great coffee, or indulge in post-game banter over a beer or wine.
Tee times can be booked either by phone at 021 051 8653 or online through NZ Golf. Green fees are affordably priced at $25 per adult for 9 holes, $35 for 18 holes, and $10 for 9 holes or $20 for 18 holes for juniors under the age of 16.
