The balcony is a great place to eat, drink, relax, and enjoy the view. We shared a pizza and drinks on a Sunday afternoon. The pizza was well cooked and was delicious. We'll be back!

Headland Golf Club has a lovely functions area with a nice view over the putting green and golf course. I went here on Thursday at 7AM to meet with members of The Business Club (I was distributing my CV). The breakfast spread looked delicious. I didn’t play golf myself, but there were a lot of people starting out on their games even when I arrived. A nice place.
Jamie Simpson
What a great golf course. From the moment you walk into the pro shop you feel welcome. I'm not a member but the friendly staff made sure I felt like one. They gave us the course run down, made sure we knew where everything was and paired us up with 2 great members, Peter and Kirsten who were both amazing to play with. The course itself was great, very green,hill and challenging. I will be 100% ...

Great golf course, survived 40ml of rain night before so cart paths only but in really good condition considering... going through a little redesign new holes looking good. Decent Proshop, friendly staff. Got a drinks voucher with the round was a nice touch. 42 cart fleet. With the redesign I suggest using carts would be a long walk otherwise. Can recommend this long standing club 💯

My wife and I had our wedding reception at Headland Golf Club and it was incredible! Tina and the girls were excellent with the organisation and very flexible when needing to adjust some things such as number of guests. They created a beautiful table layout, the food was incredible and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend!
