Margate Country Club is a well-established country club offering a variety of amenities, facilities and function venues.
Besides the obvious sporting facilities such as golf and snooker, the Country Club also offers other social activities. Amongst others these include a bridge club section and line dancing classes. Forming the hub of all activity is the friendly and cosy “19th Hole” bar and restaurant area.
Wining and Dining at Margate Country Club
Margate Country Club has a large and spacious bar area where meals can be ordered off an a la carte menu. While enjoying your meal, large tinted windows allow for good views of the 9th and 18th greens as well as the lovely vegetation around the course. One of the specialties on the menu is the Fish and Chips which has earned itself a very good reputation.
Another great area to sit and socialise while enjoying a meal or drink is the “Scowby Terrace”. The terrace is a large undercover area that leads off from the bar. This area has lovely views, especially the winter sunsets.
If you do not want to order from the a la carte menu, close to the “Scowby Terrace” you will find the club’s “Halfway House” cafeteria where freshly prepared snacks and small meals are available.
Margate Country Club Bridge Section
The Margate Country Club bridge section plays duplicate bridge every Monday and Friday. Play takes place in the club’s main hall which has lovely views of the palm-scattered golf course. Players are to meet at 12h30 for 13h00. You do not have to be a member of Margate Country Club to play bridge and visitors are always welcome, irrespective of playing experience. You can just arrive to play on the day.
Serious bridge playing takes place during each session with computerised scoring available to all corners. Immediately after the session hand records and scores are distributed to all players. Members pay R30,00 per session and non-members R40,00, which includes tea and coffee and a reasonable snack.
The Margate Country Club bridge section also hosts the very popular South Coast Open Pairs Tournament every year in September. The bridge section is a member of the Lower South Coast Bridge Association. Players taking up bridge membership at the club also become members of the KwaZulu Natal Bridge Union.
