Welcome
Stanmore Golf Club opened in 1893 and for more than a century has been a source of pleasure and pride to countless golfers. Set in magnificent mature parkland, Stanmore provides a delightful yet challenging golfing environment for both members and visitors alike. To find such a fine course in this secluded setting so close to London is a constant surprise to the visitor. Members are rightly proud of their club, which is a nice mixture of traditional private members’ club, but at the same time modern and progressive. Our membership categories encourage a healthy balance of young professionals, couples, and retirees from all walks of life – brought together by a common passion for the world’s greatest game!
The course plays to 5,974 yards as a par 69 and provides a good test of golf for players of all abilities. The scenery is memorable too, with spectacular views across the county from the highest points on the course. The clubhouse opens onto a south-facing patio in front of the 18th green with a spectacular view over the course and provides the perfect setting for weddings, functions and conferences. The relaxing surroundings are matched by outstanding service from Stanmore’s attentive staff. We look forward to seeing you soon. Allan Knott General Manager

After the Great War Alister MacKenzie was employed to reconstruct the course. MacKenzie was one of the first most prominent golf course designers who, in the late 1920’s relocated to the United States where he carried out some of his most notable work including Augusta National Golf Club. His approach “to imitate the beauties of nature (and presumably the hazards) so closely as to make his work indistinguishable from nature itself” formed the basis of turning Stanmore Golf Club into the charming oasis that you see today.

Practice on the Green Dental Care Where caring dentistry comes into play‌ Do you have bleeding gums? Are you aware of the link between Gum disease and heart disease? Your mouth is a window to your overall health and many debilitating illnesses can be linked to your oral heath status. Many medications and diseases (such as diabetes) can affect your body’s response to bacteria and infection, potentially making you high risk for dental decay and periodontal disease which in turn can have detrimental effect on your health. When you come for your check up, not only does your dentist insure your teeth are healthy but your dentist will also be doing a cancer screening, performing a periodontal (gum) screening and assessing for any potential future problems. We believe that everyone deserves a beautiful smile and the best possible care. We have taken great care in equipping each surgery with up to date instruments, equipment and materials to ensure your visit to us will be enjoyable and painless. We strongly believe in preserving the old-fashioned atmosphere of a family orientated, friendly dental surgery where you will feel secure in the knowledge that we will always do our very best to accommodate you and make you feel at home.

The room will comfortably seat up to 120 guests or 150 for a buffet and with beautiful views out over the golf course, it provides a glorious backdrop for any occasion and is just perfect as a background for those cherished wedding photographs. On a nice evening, your guests can spill out on to the patio overlooking the course. A delightful area for pre-reception drinks too! The golf course provides an outstanding setting for your event whether during the day or night and we can also arrange for those essential extras that make your life less complicated.

St Luke’s Hospice
Stanmore Golf Club is a keen fund-raiser for charity, particularly for the local St. Luke’s Hospice for whom we have raised several thousand pounds since forming our association around six years ago. St Luke’s, based in Kenton Road, Harrow, is a cause close to our heart and a pillar for the local community, doing some wonderful work and providing expert care to patients and much-needed support to their relatives and friends. St Luke’s is an independent charity and like most charities in recent times has felt the results of the credit squeeze. We at Stanmore are in the fortunate position where we are able to help and do so at every opportunity. One of the most popular events we hold to raise money is the
Greenkeeper’s Revenge Golf Day, generally held at the start of September. This is an opportunity for Stanmore’s head greenkeeper to get his own back on members for any criticism that has been levelled at him throughout the year. Industrial fairway mowers are placed to guard the greens, pin positions are chosen to ensure nigh impossible putts, flags are randomly removed from greens, and golfers are dowsed by the course sprinklers when they least expect it. A meal and charity auction follows, while local businesses are hugely supportive in sponsoring holes and offering raffle prizes. For more information on St Luke’s, visit the website, www.stlukes-hospice. org, or to enquire about fundraising or how to make a donation contact Pam Russell, the Director of Fundraising and Community Relations, on 020 8382 8040 or via e-mail at: prussell@stlukeshospice.org
