The Mount Lofty Golf Estate and Resort has received provisional development approval after the developer made key changes to address environmental concerns.

Set to transform a 39.9-hectare golf course, the project will feature a five-storey hotel, state-of-the-art golf facilities, and a vibrant retail, café and function precinct—offering a premium destination for visitors and a boost to the local economy.

  3. Golf Course Enhancement: The proposal outlines plans for the retention and improvement of the existing 18-hole golf course.
  4. Heritage Conservation: The project involves the conservation and adaptive reuse of a local heritage site to house a multipurpose café, retail space, and function area.
  5. Parking Infrastructure: The plan includes the creation of approximately 250 parking spaces across two designated areas.
  6. Landscaping and Tree Management: The proposal addresses associated landscaping, including tree removal (and native vegetation) where necessary.
