The unique feature of the Carrington golf course is that, although it has an ocean-side location, it looks and plays like an "inland golf" course, complete with rolling hills, vales, and natural water hazards.
Carrington stresses the natural contours of its location on the gently sloping lower levels of a hill side site adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The resultant effect is the challenging play of a rolling inland golf course but with the beautiful ocean vistas of its seaside location.
Spectacular views of the golf course, wetlands, beach, and ocean beyond are visible from the clubhouse and lounge complex. The clubhouse is sited on a high ridge in the middle of the golf course in order to take full advantage of the unique combination of vistas.
Carrington provides both lodge and villa accommodation with views to the ocean, golf course or native bush and vineyard. The lodge connects by verandah walkways to the clubhouse, library, dining room and members' lounge. Your stay includes a five course dinner and breakfast.
