Trump Macleod Clavis Whisky Bar
At the heart of the design and construction methodology is the protection and enhancement of the land’ s natural features. The outstanding ecological and geomorphological attributes of the site have been preserved and play an integral part in the overall design success. An innovative environmentally friendly freshwater and drainage system has been engineered to provide long-term sustainable irrigation for all thirty-six holes, utilizing the wetlands, ponds and water collected from across the site.
More than one million sprigs of native marram grass have been planted, and six tons of marram seeds were cultivated across the new course. Over ten hectares of natural vegetation has been successfully translocated allowing indigenous plant habitats to thrive and expand,
with many new wildlife habitats emerging within the new wetlands and dune-slack areas.
Both courses have become exemplars for the successful translocation of indigenous grasses, native vegetation and habitat, resulting in two worldclass links courses that blend effortlessly into the landscape.
Designed to complement the existing golf course to form what is being hailed, The Greatest 36 Holes in Golf, this visionary golf resort brings together extremely rare components – incredible land, great vision, endless talent and unlimited resources.
Both courses are built to worldclass championship standards and yet the golf resort is uniquely accessible and open to all. With five or more tees on every hole and extensive practice facilities catering for every shot-making requirement, golfers of all levels of ability are welcome.
Seasonal green fee rates are on offer along with great value individual, family and corporate memberships.
