Are you the owner of Westown Golf Club and Golf Shop?
Westown Golf Club and Golf Shop, located in Mangorei, offers a friendly and picturesque golfing experience in Taranaki, New Zealand. Situated just 8 kilometres from central New Plymouth, the club is easily accessible at 964 Mangorei Road, off State Highway 3.
The club features an 18-hole course that boasts tree-lined fairways, meticulously manicured greens, and challenging holes that cater to golfers of all skill levels. In addition to the course, Westown Golf Club also provides a simulator for those rainy days when golfing outdoors is not possible. Detailed pricing information can be found on the club's News page.
In 2022, Westown Golf Club milled all the pine trees around the course and replaced them with 2500 native trees, creating a more inviting environment for bird life. The club also actively participates in a trapping programme to support Towards Predator Free Taranaki, with traps being checked weekly by dedicated volunteers.
Westown Golf Club is grateful for the support of its generous sponsors, and their contributions help to enhance the overall golfing experience. The club can be contacted via phone at (06) 758 6933 or through email at admin@westowngolfclub. Co. nz.

Respect for the well-maintained golf course is paramount, with players avoiding littering, dragging feet on putting greens, and making unnecessary noise.
