The Experience
Please note that the Clubhouse will be closed for renovations until approximately June 2025.
An overnight stay in the Clubhouse combined with a round the following morning is one of Australia’s best golf experiences.
Stay a little longer and enjoy all that Barwon Heads and the Bellarine has to offer.
Winter
Situated only metres from Victoria’s roaring Surf Coast, this highly rated links course is a delight to play any time of the year. But in winter the open air experience – with Mother Nature by your side – can be even more memorable. With the salt breeze blowing over the natural contours of the course and its immaculate greens you’ll feel like you’re on one of Scotland or England’s elite courses.
Established in 1907, The Barwon Heads Golf Club is considered by many to be Australia’s first true links course. And right next to the renowned links, the Clubhouse has a unique atmosphere that brings more than a hint of old Scotland to Victoria.
