Mount Broughton Golf & Country Club

Mount Broughton Golf & Country Club sits in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, approximately 130 kilometers southwest of Sydney near the village of Sutton Forest. Designed by Greg Norman and opened in 2001, the course occupies rolling pastoral land that was once part of a historic rural estate. The property's elevation and open terrain provide long views across the Highlands countryside, with the layout taking advantage of natural contours and native vegetation that includes stands of eucalyptus and remnant bushland. The routing moves through varied topography, with several holes playing along ridgelines and others descending into valleys where seasonal creeks and wetlands come into play. Norman's design incorporates wide fairways with strategic bunkering and large, undulating greens that reward precise approach shots. The course measures over 6,700 meters from the championship tees, though multiple tee options accommodate different skill levels. Wind is a frequent factor given the exposed Highland setting, and the firm, fast-running conditions typical of the region add to the strategic demands. Mount Broughton operates as a private club with residential components integrated into the broader property. The club emphasizes a relaxed country atmosphere while maintaining high standards for course conditioning and member amenities. The Southern Highlands location, with its cooler climate and distinct seasons, provides playing conditions that differ markedly from Sydney's coastal courses, making Mount Broughton a distinctive option within the regional golf landscape.
