Cheval Residences & Cheval Thorney Court Proudly supported ‘Members Guest Day’ at Wentworth Club In aid of
Help for Heroes On Wednesday 24th August 2011
Originally home to the Brother-in-Law of the Duke of Wellington, ‘Wentworth House’ became the castellated Club House for Wentworth Golf course, first opened in 1926. Situated in the leafy enclaves of Surrey near Virginia Water, Wentworth Club is synonymous with the PGA Championship and has hosted both the Ryder Cup in 1953 and the World Cup in 1956. Cheval Residences were delighted to have the opportunity to sponsor this prestigious event in support of Help for Heroes; a most worthy British Charity, founded in 2007 by Bryn and Emma Parry. Help for Heroes has made its mark on British society, raising money to support members of the Armed Forces who have been wounded in the service of their country.
The ‘Members Guest Day’ was attended by the great and the good of Wentworth Club, and after a full day of golf, an exclusive Dinner Party was held in the Club House which raised an impressive £8500 during the evening through the auction, raffle and sponsorship. Cheval Residences, as part of their sponsorship was delighted to extend an auction prize providing a 3 night stay at the quintessential Cheval Thorney Court, Kensington with Dinner for 4 at the award winning Le Cercle Restaurant, Sloane Street, Chelsea. We are delighted that the prize was won by a most worthy and generous patron – Mr Bruce Tenniswood who himself is a former Captain of Wentworth Golf Club.
We at Cheval Residences would like to share with you some of the great snaps taken during this wonderful day at Wentworth. On the day, Cheval was represented by our very own Robert Allton – General Manager of Cheval Thorney Court & Cheval Hyde Park Gate.
After a successful day playing with their Golf Balls the lads return to the Club House to freshen up in preparation for what is a most enjoyable evening with good food, good wine, and great company.
