| It is never too early to get us
involved in the golf development process... and our initial site visit and
preliminary project
appraisal
can potentially save time, trouble
and expense in the longer term. |
A visit to the site will quickly enable
us to evaluate the potential or viability of the site to support the
proposed golf and associated facilities, or allow us to offer
recommendations for the most
appropriate and suitable development content.
Our preliminary appraisal of the project can then provide a solid basis
for
further
discussion and sound decision
making.

|
| what do you need to develop a good golf course? |
| There are
many factors involved in the creation of a good golf course (and not
all of them tangible). Some, or all,
of the following should give you a good start...... |
| • | 60
hectares of
interesting,
attractive and gently undulating land per 18 holes | | • | A
liberal sprinkling of complementary natural features, set in eye-catching
surroundings | | • | Water for irrigation from a consistent, adequate and sustainable source | | • | Water sources such as saline, 'grey', waste and harvested.....but not drinking water | | • | Lack
of intrusion from roads, railway lines, cables, pylons or other unsightly
blemishes | | • | Free-draining/sandy
topsoil - either on site or available locally
| | • | Reliable
supplies of good quality sand and crushed stone | | • | Good
support services, amenities and facilities
| | • | Good
access to the site |
|
|
| what do we need for the initial site inspection? |
| Not a lot really...... |
A site plan -- preferably 1:2000/1:2500 and ideally with contours -- showing the
site boundaries and the main site features will be useful.
| | After that, any available information which may help in properly
evaluating the project is a bonus. | | We will set out any further information requirements within our preliminary
appraisal report. |
|

 | |  | | | Sometimes, we have to go a bit above & beyond the call
of duty. One client thought we would get a better
view of the land from the top of the region's highest mountain... unfortunately
there were no roads, so we had to climb it on foot. We didn't gain
any extra insights but the views were spectacular*/vertiginous* |
