The Vintage Golf Club, Rothbury

Here among the Hunter Valley wineries, Greg Norman has designed a very distinctive and challenging golf course - thoroughly absorbing from start to finish. The neighbourhood is a mix of new real estate being developed not too far from the course, and fairly open "bush" or scrub - although several copses of tall eucalyptus trees are also dotted around. The course itself is what you'll need to pay most attention to (a strokesaver is advised on your first visit). It places a high demand on excellent course management and well targeted shots - this is no push-over of a resort course.

Stunning location. I don't play golf, but the bar has some great drops of vino and lovely nibbles en enjoy while sitting outside, watching the sun set over the beautiful rolling hills. Will definitely return!

Great weekend of golf at a fantastic course. Womens Golf NSW put on a great 2 days. Our team of four came runner up playing Par in the morning comp.

I’d give it less then one star - the lady at the pro shop needs to stop being a cow. Kicking us off because one of our group was wearing denim jeans is a joke. I’ve played here a few times and it’s a great course. Pity about the entitiled service. Also - it’s a rip off if u ask me. It costs $20 per person at the crown course which is way cheaper then the vintage. I won’t be back.

Takes a bit for me to do this!! The staff were terrible, unfriendly and had no customer service whatsoever right from ordering. Ordered a kids meal and an adult meal, adult meal came out in 20 mins, the guy that brought it out was more concerned about his hair than us, at the 30min mark I asked if the kids pizza would be much longer an told that the kids meal came from a different kitchen and usually was later than the adult meal. At the 40 min mark asked the less than friendly girl behind the bar again if it would be much longer and if she would mind looking into it for me. She brought the cold pizza out and all but threw it on the table as we had inconvenienced her night. The place is beautiful but staff need some serious training on how to treat a customer. Bistro area and lucky she wasn’t wearing a name tag.
