Opened in 2022, Tieke Golf Estate swiftly ascended to become one of New Zealand's premier golf destinations. Crafted from sand sourced from the riverbed of NZ's grandest river, Tieke showcases natural elements like fine fescue turf and bent grass putting surfaces. Its design melds links-style play with secluded valley golf, evoking an exclusive experience. Here, ground strategy reigns supreme, with "bump and run" shots prized as much as high lofted wedges. Despite its inland locale, Tieke's expansive sandy vistas echo coastal links, honoring the land's rich history with a nod to its ancestral lineage.
Tieke Golf Estate offers a range of world-class facilities, including a modern clubhouse with panoramic views of the course, a fully stocked pro shop, and excellent dining options that cater to every palate. Golfers can also take advantage of the state-of-the-art practice facilities, including a driving range and short game area, to fine-tune their skills before hitting the course.
The best time of the year to play at Tieke is during the spring and autumn months, when the weather is mild and the course conditions are at their peak. During these seasons, the natural beauty of the surroundings is on full display, providing a picturesque backdrop to an unforgettable round of golf.
One of the distinguishing features of Tieke Golf Estate is its commitment to environmental sustainability. The course is designed to blend seamlessly with the natural landscape, promoting biodiversity and preserving the native flora and fauna.
