Woodhill occupies prime position in the eastern suburbs of Pretoria, with beautiful vistas over the city.
A former dairy farm, Woodhill became a successful development in the late 1990s with an 18-hole Peter Matkovich golf course. It
has been voted one of the best addresses in South Africa, with more than 850 upmarket residences.
The estate and golf course are 17 years old, and the first impression on entering Woodhill is the high standard of the roads and other common areas. The beautifully manicured course is ranked among the top 100 courses in South Africa. Almost 40 000 rounds a year are played, confirmation of the course’s popularity. Woodhill prides itself on being the golfing destination of choice for corporate membership. The fairways are generously shaped, the rough is kept at a manageable length, and the greens, although quick, are receptive. There is more than enough room for errant shots without taking out a window in an adjacent house.
“Golf is not just about scoring, especially on an estate,” says Matkovich. “It is a walk in a park. The environment and character of the course should create a natural and tranquil enjoyment of its own. The animals, in¬sects and birds, plus the growth of the trees, should score as much as birdies and pars.” This philosophy is evident at Woodhill.
