Going to Gippsland? Like a round of Golf at a new course in picturesque Metung?
I reckon Kings Cove on the hill overlooking Metung is the way to go.
The views are worth the cost of a round, clubs bags and buggies for hire. And if you don't play golf, go to the restaurant for dinner - recently voted one of the best country restaurants
in Victoria
Kings Cove golf course is at Metung on the Gippsland lakes, 3 hours from Melbourne

Melbourne is endowed with probably more first class golf courses, private and public, than any other city in the world. Home to the best course in Australia, Royal Melbourne, within a ½ hour's drive from there are other fantastic courses... Kingston Heath (rated Australia's #2) Metropolitan, The Commonwealth, Yarra Yarra, Keysborough, Huntingdale, Woodlands, the Capital (very exclusive) and Victoria (rich with history).
Alongside these private courses (which are open to guests) are public courses. Sandringham (using part of the old Royal Melbourne course), Brighton, Cheltenham, Dingley, Albert Park (home of the Australian F1 GP) and Elsternwick. All with 15km of each other.
Moving further afield onto the peninsula we get courses like The Dunes, Rosebud Country Club, Cape Schank and the National. Plus lots more courses spread around Melbourne (over 50). Add a large number of driving ranges to practice on, and golfers have a huge choice right here in Melbourne.
