Welcome To The New Bellarine Peninsula Golf Course
Welcome to Lonsdale Links! The Bellarine Peninsula golf course has been redesigned as a deliberate throwback to an earlier age. Featuring an exciting layout unique for Australia, the Bellarine Peninsula golf course winds around salt marshes and wetlands and spreads out across coastal dunes beside the picturesque Lake Victoria. The par-70 course boasts bouncy fairways, strong winds and challenging green complexes, making Lonsdale Links ideal for even the most accomplished player.
The intention was to create a strategic course, which reveals more of itself each time you play golf Bellarine Peninsula. Drawing inspiration from trailblazer, Charles Blair Macdonald, and his colleagues Seth Raynor and Charles Banks, course architects Ogilvy Cocking Mead (OCM) designed the Bellarine golf course as a deliberate throwback with template holes featuring throughout. Elements of these templates and the holes that inspired them can be found in the design at Lonsdale Links, including the opening hole ‘Alps’, which commands sweeping views over Lake Victoria and encourages players to take on the dune off the tee to enter the first square green. Other inspired template holes include Biarritz, Plateau, Eden, Leven, Punchbowl, Thumbprint, Redan and Road.

Hole 11 – Punchbowl
The long 11th can switch between being a par 4 or 5 and plays around the Southern border of the property with views across farmland and the coastal dunes. The tee shot often plays straight into the wind, so this hole plays longer than the card suggests and the large sandy blow-out on the right guards the shortest route to the green. Be sure to check the sign at the tee to find the pin position for the day as the putting surface is blind with just a narrow gap in the dunes as the entrance to the green.

Hole 10 – Lookout
Perched on the edge of the 9th dune this tee shot plays across the edge of a deep valley.
The lookout at the back of the tee provides a terrific view across the course and to the nearby lighthouse as well as seeing if play has cleared ahead. Be sure to avoid the trench style bunker on the corner of the dogleg… its deep and difficult and many have unraveled from in here. The green is small with the easiest pin positions near the front and most difficult up the plateau in the back left, corner.

Hole 9 – Leven
The Leven template was first conceived at Lundin Links on Scotland’s Fife coast. A short 4 played to a green positioned on the edge of a dune that runs up the left of the hole.
Our version features the same dune along the left and an out of bound fence down the right which must be played close to in order to have the best angle into the green.
