Bosch Hoek Golf & Country Estate in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands must qualify as one of the most picturesque layouts in the country. The estate is conveniently positioned at Balgowan near Howick, just a four hour drive from Johannesburg or a leisurely one and a half hour drive from Durban. It is easily accessible via the N3 toll highway (exit 125). For visiting groups, there are any amount of first rate bed and breakfast establishments in the vicinity (part of the successful Midlands Meander tourism concept), as well as the likes of the renowned Granny Mouse Country Hotel.
But what is it that makes the Bosch Hoek experience so enjoyable? Perhaps it is because the course is so well laid out in pristine surroundings and its conditioning is beyond reproach. There is serenity about the place which is immediately apparent after entering the estate via the security gate. One could be a million miles from the bustle of the city – the abundant birdlife (the malachite kingfisher has appropriately been adopted as the club’s emblem), the tranquil lakes, the thoroughbred horses grazing in the pastures bordering the course – all of these attributes make for a special golfing retreat.
PROPERTY
The Bosch Hoek Country Estate offers secure country living on this prestigeous development for discerning investors looking for idyllic views and access to fishing, golf and horse riding. The housing sites have been selected on the basis of their impact on the environment, the golf course and the privacy of the golfers and estate residents. To this end, they are positioned on the hillside to the east of the course and each site was individually pegged out by Jeremy Stubbs, the Landscape Consultant, to maximise its characteristics.
Firstly, only 38 stands were made available for the completion of the first phase – each north-facing and well spaced on the hillside overlooking the course. Careful consideration was given to the impact of these sites, the end result being that they enhance, rather than intrude on the natural surroundings.
Green belts of indigenous flora have been retained between the properties, ensuring both privacy and the retention of the panoramic views. The architectural theme of “Colonial Natal” or “Natal Verandah” fits perfectly with the surroundings and, while each home retains it’s individuality, the common building materials and external finishes in earthy tones make for an aesthetically pleasing blend.
