Stoke Park re-opens with a Masterplan – Golf News

Stoke Park, which has been largely closed for the last three years, is welcoming back golfers to play its historic Harry Colt course for the first time since the venue’s change of ownership.

The Buckinghamshire-based luxury hotel, golf and country club shut its doors to members in 2021 after it was bought by Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, who has since invested heavily in the 300-acre estate.

Although the club will not return to a membership structure going forward, golfers and companies will be able to book rounds on a pay-and-play basis at a rate of £125pp, with the Colt/Alison 18-hole course initially open from Wednesday to Sunday in order to enable the course to be maintained to the highest possible standards.

LIMIT OF GOLFERS PER DAY

Stuart Collier, Director of Golf, said: “While we work towards submitting the masterplan for the future of Stoke Park, our world-class 18-hole course is now open for general play, as well as for golf coaching and special golf events.”

“We are restricting play to around 30-40 golfers per day on the five days that the course will be open, with 15-minute intervals between tee times to ensure that our visitors enjoy a peaceful, relaxing day.”

He added: “For golfers that might want to play here more often we are also offering a points-based package, whereby an individual or a company buys a bundle of green fee credits and they are can be used as and when required by themselves or for a friend or colleague. The course will also be available to be booked for exclusive use for more intimate corporate golf days or charity events.”

As well as the opening of a new swing studio, the venue’s Pavilion, which houses the spa and 28 guest bedrooms, has been completely renovated, while future plans for Stoke Park also include restoration of the Grade I listed historic mansion, the creation of ‘seven-star’ hotel villas, and the construction of a new clubhouse.
