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!

Although not the longest course in Middlesex, it is certainly one of the most challenging with the tree-lined fairways demanding accuracy from the start. The course plays to 5,952 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.

Our clubhouse is also 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.

History

From its extraordinary origins as a ‘gift’ from the Gordon family, Stanmore Golf Club has been both a place to play golf seriously and also a retreat to enjoy the company of friends and acquaintances. Pleasure and competition, companionship and rivalry, striving against others and the private contest with the course itself; these are some of the themes that run through the history of our club.

In 1882 Frederick Gordon bought Bentley Priory, a fine 18th century house, which began the foundations for Stanmore Golf Club. Not content with a country house and its grounds, Gordon bought neighbouring Stanmore Park and transformed the landscape over the next decade with a railway, hotel and golf course. Once Gordon had bought up much of Stanmore, he built a branch line at a cost of £80,000 to link his estates with the main rail connections at Wealdstone. He then turned part of Bentley Priory into a luxury country hotel and began to lay out a golf course over Stanmore Park, initially for the amusement of his friends and guests but which soon became the private club that is now Stanmore Golf Club.

6

Stanmore Golf Club

Gordon’s personal wealth was estimated at £2million and he was soon to become one of the world’s greatest hoteliers. In London alone he owned the First Avenue in Holborn, the Metropole in Northumberland Avenue, the Grand in Trafalgar Square, plus the Russell and Grosvenor. He had large hotels in Brighton, Eastbourne, Folkestone, Bexhill, Margate, Sandown on the Isle of Wight, Whitby and Harrogate and on the continent at Dieppe, Cannes and Monte Carlo.

Gordon had an elite circle of friends including lawyers, city brokers and MPs, and it was in 1893 together with his friend Thomas Francis Blackwell (of the Crosse & Blackwell dynasty) that they turned Stanmore Golf Club into the charming oasis that you see today.

The Course

We are very proud of our golf course, which we believe to be the most picturesque and enjoyable to play in the area.

The course plays to 5,952 yards as a par 69 and provides a good test of golf for players of all abilities. The tree-lined fairways make accuracy from the tee important. We have two par 5’s, five tricky par 3’s, with the remaining par 4’s of varying lengths. Each hole has a character of its own, and the course offers spectacular views of the surrounding area.

The 7th, a 352-yard par 4 off the white tees, is probably the hole visitors remember most from a visit to Stanmore. It is a very picturesque hole, situated at one of the highest points in Middlesex and offers stunning views across the county.

Stanmore is not a particularly long course, but is quite narrow and will test your ability to hit straight off the tee to the full.

Big trees and thick bushes are waiting everywhere ready to penalise errant shots. Several dog-legs allow the really proficient golfer the chance to showcase their abilities, with the opportunity to shape shots both ways throughout the round.

On most holes it is better to be short than long because invariably a great deal of trouble awaits behind the greens. Having hit the green, you will find the putting surfaces fast and true and in exceptional condition.

Tuition

Whether you’re an accomplished player or simply looking to get into the game, the quickest and easiest way to play better golf and lower your scores is to book a lesson with one of our PGA professionals. Stanmore is blessed with a strong and talented teaching team and with three qualified professionals there is always someone on hand to assist and advise.

We have several styles of tuition to suit your need from a personal one-to-one lesson to a more relaxed group lesson with other players of a similar standard. Our coaching facilities include a covered practice area, practice green, chipping and pitching area and two practice bunkers. The teaching team also offer on-course tuition, where technique and the tactical side to the game can be addressed at the same time. Learning the correct thought process can often be an eye-opening and rewarding experience for the novice player and can lead to better scores.

We understand golf is a ‘Game For Life’, so our lessons are tailor-made to suit the individual, aiming towards improving people’s performance and enjoyment of the game. This is achieved through precise swing analysis followed by clear instruction and easy-to-follow practice drills, which allows us to install solid foundations and good fundamentals, as well as combining the individual’s own natural flair and style.

Golf lessons can be booked in person or over the phone. We also offer gift vouchers for loved ones for special occasions, or for any time when you think their golf just needs a little help.

Playing Categories

All the playing sections at Stanmore are very active and play regular competitions and matches against other clubs, offering competition to male and female golfers of any age or ability.

Men The Tigers is our low handicap section for members with handicaps up to 9.

The Tigers play matches in the Middlesex League, which follows a group format followed by knockout competition for the group winners. They are a very sociable group and every year go away together as a team-building exercise, playing golf and getting to know one-another better. The group also organises a similar away trip in the summer for all sections of the club who want to participate.

In more recent times, the Tigers have introduced a B section, for those players with a handicap of seven and above, which has further increased the opportunity for competitive play. The Tigers have been extremely successful in recent times and in 2010 won an unprecedented treble of the Frank Rowse Trophy, the Middlesex Tigers League and the Johnson Cameron Trophy, the latter event being claimed by members of the Tigers’ B Section.

The Foxes is our mid-handicap section for members with handicaps between 9 and 19.

The Foxes is the largest section at Stanmore with over 200 golfers that fall into this category by way of handicap. Members play 18 home and away friendly matches against nine other clubs, which are always competitive but sociable and followed by an evening meal.

16

Stanmore Golf Club

There are similar matches played against the other sections of the club - High Handicap, Tigers, Ladies, Juniors and the Past Foxes Captains. There are a host of trophies available to win in the club’s own competitions and the Foxes’ aim is to encourage more existing members and in particular our new members to take part in as many events as possible.

Our high handicap section, for members with a handicap between 19 and 28, is known as the Rabbits.

The Rabbits Section is the only section that plays throughout the year. In the summer months, they play home and away against 14 local clubs and in the winter months against five other clubs, making a total of 28 summer and ten winter matches. All players are expected to dine after, for summer matches and generally before for winter matches depending on arrangements.

The Rabbits Section plays in the Stanley West knockout competition in which teams of nine compete in singles match play.

Early rounds are played at home or away with the semi-finals and final played at neutral courses. Matches are followed by a dinner, as with friendly matches. Stanmore won this competition in 2007.

One of the highlights of the year is the HH Invitation Day, in early September, when we invite clubs we play in friendly matches to send representatives. Teams of four are drawn with each team having at least one Stanmore member with the other members of each four-ball being drawn at random from the list submitted by the various clubs. There are various prizes to be played for on the day and these are presented at the post-match dinner.

Academy Golf

Fear not! Everyone was a beginner golfer at one point and we have introduced our Academy Membership aimed at new golfers of all ages and abilities to help ease them into the game. For a very reasonable annual fee, you can learn to play golf, practice what you have learned, and use the full facilities of the golf club.

Juniors

We recognise that juniors are the future of golf, so here at Stanmore we teach youngsters of all ages and abilities, in a friendly environment where they can make friends, learn golf and have fun.

Junior lessons can be given on a one-to-one basis or in groups. We run junior classes for beginners, younger players, elite players and our very own junior section team.

Junior improvement programmes can be created to suit the needs and aspirations of each individual and there are also beginner classes aimed at teaching children the basics to enable them to get out and enjoy the game as quickly as possible.

Learning sound fundamentals at an early age means many years of frustration on the course later in life can be avoided!

Lessons can be 30 minutes, 45 minutes or an hour, and while many golf centres charge similar prices for juniors as they do adult golfers at Stanmore, junior lessons are considerably cheaper.

Junior group classes are run throughout the year. Some will take place on weekends for members of the junior section, while others are scheduled for half-term and the main school holidays.

The junior section team has been largely successful in past years, being encouraged by the PGA professionals who coach them, the junior organisers who manage them and their parents. Regular competitions are held for our under-18s, including a Medal and a Stableford each month. The juniors also play matches against other clubs and participate in two leagues.

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 fund-raising 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@stlukes-hospice.org Stanmore Golf Club

How to Find Us

Stanmore Golf Club is handily placed, with excellent links to Central London. We are just 15 miles from Marble Arch, and one mile from Stanmore tube station (Jubilee Line) and two miles from junction 4 of the M1 Motorway.

However once you are out on the course, the seclusion provided by hundreds of mature trees means that you would not know you were so close to central London.

For satellite navigation purposes our postcode is HA7 2RL. Directions from the M1 If travelling south/eastbound on the M1, leave at junction 4 and exit on to the A41 Edgware Way. (Note if travelling north/ westbound on the M1 there is no exit at junction 4, it is necessary to leave at junction 5, rejoin the motorway heading in the opposite direction and then leave at junction 4). Turn right at the next roundabout after about one mile onto the A410.

Continue straight on for nearly two miles, ignoring turnings to the left and right for the A4140. Turn left into The Chase and after 500 yards turn left into Gordon Avenue. The entrance to the club is signposted and is around 400 yards down on the right.
