Forrester & Marram Course
Bridport, Tasmania, AU
Forrester & Marram occupies coastal terrain near Bridport on Tasmania's northeast coast, part of the Links Golf Resort development in a region known for its beaches and relatively mild climate. The course takes its name from local vegetation—forrester kangaroos that inhabit the area and marram grass common to the dunes. Designed to work with the natural coastal landforms, the layout moves through undulating ground with views across Bass Strait and the surrounding countryside. The routing takes advantage of the site's elevation changes and native vegetation, with holes playing through corridors of tea-tree and coastal scrub. Several holes run along higher ground offering exposure to prevailing winds, while others settle into more protected valleys. The design emphasizes ground game options and strategic choices rather than forced carries, reflecting principles common to links-style courses adapted to the Australian landscape. Bridport has emerged as a golf destination partly due to this facility and the nearby Barnbougle complex on the opposite side of the region. The course serves resort guests and visiting golfers exploring Tasmania's northeast coast, an area that has gained attention for its concentration of modern links-style designs. The clubhouse and resort amenities cater to golfers combining rounds with stays in the region, which offers access to beaches, wineries, and coastal walking trails alongside its golf offerings.
The journey to Links Golf Resort begins at Launceston Airport, Tasmania's primary gateway, roughly ninety minutes northwest through rolling pastoral country that gradually gives way to the windswept coastline of Bass Strait. Hobart's international terminal serves as an alternative entry point, though it adds another hour to the drive across the island's northern tier. The final stretch along Bridport's quiet seaside roads feels deliberate in its remoteness - past fishing villages and farmland that seem untouched by urgency - before the property reveals itself along Anderson Bay, where the Tamar River meets the open ocean in a sweep of dunes and native grasses.
