This club is quite different because of many ways, one of which is its location. Surrounded by the mountains of the Wakatipu Basisn, the golf course is beautifully set. The club is situated on the natural contours of the land, making it striking. Although it is not a long golf course with just 18 holes, yet it plays quite tight and hence, to score well, one needs to play straight.

Stocking luxury knitwear made in New Zealand, the Woolpress even has leather goods and a range of outdoor apparel on showcase. Home to a number of top labels of the country, we are sure you will never return without shopping at Woolpress.
