The Estate...
Selborne Hotel, Spa and Golf Estate - A stately manor house surrounded by indigenous coastal forest is the tranquil setting of this luxury golf estate, hotel and health spa, close to the warm Indian Ocean and near Durban in South Africa. A private beach club is a few sandy footsteps to the beach.

Selborne was created in 1985 when Denis Barker was inspired to turn his dairy stud farm into the first golf estate in South Africa. His intent was clear – preserve the rich flora and fauna surrounding the manor house. Today, this sprawling Victorian architectural statement is the centrepiece of a family run retreat. Woven around the natural rock and contours and verdant indigenous coastal forest – home to duiker, mongoose, bushbuck and over 160 bird species – Selborne offers unequalled natural beauty and tranquillity.

The term “less is more” could not be more appropriate than here. Unlike most other golf estates, no more than 145 homes will be built at Selborne, harmoniously placed amongst the coastal forest so as not to impact on the spectacular beauty and tranquility that is Selborne. This does however mean that only a few wise investors will be fortunate to feature this rare and appreciable asset in their portfolio.

Some call Selborne C.C, rated by Golf Digest in 2006 as one of the countries top 30 golf courses, the most spectacular 18 holes in Southern Africa. Wild coastal forest frames a superbly manicured course where the only disturbance may be one of nature’s creatures.

Selborne offers more than just a top-class golf course. As a resident on the estate and as a member of the golf club you have access to a number of facilities. These include: the luxurious hotel and its highly acclaimed a'la carte restaurant, the Health Spa & gym, Selborne's own private beach club, the professionally run children's entertainment centre, floodlit tennis courts, indoor golf academy and soon to be completed state-of-the art driving range.
