Hutt Valley Five Day Tour Royal Wellington, The Hutt, Manor Park and Shandon golf courses. The Hutt Valley is a 30 minute drive north from Wellington Airport, and all the courses are very close together which gives you plenty of time to do other things instead of driving long distances to golf courses. One thing to remember on this tour, the wind tends to blow one way for a hole and then on the next hole its blowing a different direction, I played many tee shots down wind only to find walking off the tee block that it had changed into a headwind, of course sometimes it's the other way around.

Royal Wellington Golf Course is also located in the Hutt Valley and was a private club up until a few years back when they opened the gates up to visitors, visiting it you wouldn't think so, I have been invited to play Royal Sydney and Middlemore and Royal Wellington have definitely done well to make all visitors feel welcome.
The Hutt Golf Course is located only a few blocks away from Shandon and is the North Islands oldest golf course, it is a bit up and down with tree lined fairways as you would expect from an old layout, but it is still a real tough course to score on, and if the wind gets up then all the Hutt Valley Courses are a true test of endurance. The par 3 finishing hole over the lake is a real test when you have a good round going.
Situated 14km from the city center, Manor Park Golf Course is a long narrow course boarded by the Hutt river and the Wellington train lines, it is an easy walking course and boasts to being the home of many great N.Z playing professionals.
Another course I highly rate is the Shandon Golf Course, it's located in Petone just as you enter the Hutt Valley and is a parkland's layout with gentle undulations, boarded by water, and well bunkered, Shandon demands respect as it is a test right from the start, where the first tee shot and approach take plenty of focus and accuracy.
