About
The Henley Course is a hidden gem located in Christmas Hills, Australia and is part of the Heritage Golf and Country Club. Designed by Tony Cashmore, this traditional links course offers a contrast to the stadium style St John course and provides a unique golfing experience. As players stroll over the bridge across the Yarra River to the northern half of the club, they will discover the beauty and charm of The Henley.
The course is meticulously woven through wetlands and oxbow tundra that have been carved by the river, creating a rugged terrain that is reminiscent of traditional Scottish or Irish links courses. The fairways, roughs, and greens of The Henley are all picturesque, with emerald-green fairways contrasting against blue billabongs and wetlands adorned with waterlilies and vibrant birdlife. The Yarra River winds its way through the course, adding an extra layer of challenge and beauty to the game.
The Henley features the traditional 'nine holes out and nine holes in' layout, and is home to the longest par 4 in Australia, making it a true test of skill and talent for even the most seasoned players. The attention to detail and the stunning location of the course truly make it one of the most captivating golf courses in the country.
Members and guests of the Heritage Golf and Country Club have the opportunity to enjoy The Henley Course, along with the St John course and a range of other amenities and services offered by the club. Social groups are welcomed to experience the beauty and challenge of The Henley, and bookings can be made by calling 0437 525 770 or emailing bookings@hgcc. Com. au.
Whether you're a golf enthusiast or simply appreciate the tranquilly and beauty of a well-designed course, The Henley is a must-see for golfers in the Christmas Hills area.
