Introduction ‘We always wanted to create a sporting environment which had a village atmosphere and was an ideal place for families. It had to be a place where people could relax and escape the pressures of everyday life. It had to be a place where we, ourselves, would feel comfortable in’ Jennifer Shah Jennifer and Eddy Shah bought the Wiltshire Golf Club in 2001 and set about transforming the small 18-hole golf club on 140 acres into a special place only two hours from the centre of London and minutes from the motorway.
“
It’s a place we’re proud to have built and now share with those who expect the best for themselves and their families.
Within six years, they had bought another 100 acres, turned the complex into a 27-hole golf facility, opened a large gym and indoor 18-metre pool and added a 58-room hotel. They also reconstructed the restaurant and function areas and built the 44 eco-friendly second homes with great views and plenty of space for relaxed living. Planning for a second phase was agreed in 2009 and these new designs, of a much larger size, are now ready to be built. ‘It is the final piece of the jigsaw. The Wiltshire Leisure Village is the reality of the dream we both had. It is a relaxed environment that has all the qualities people expect in today’s frantic world. It’s a place we’re proud to have built and now share with those who expect the best for themselves and their families’ Eddy Shah

Golf Sitting proudly on a Wiltshire hillside, the course reflects all that is best of the local landscape. Apart from the great views across the Wiltshire hills, the lakes and bunkers concentrate the mind wonderfully; accuracy and length play equally important parts in your search for a low score. The new extended and re-designed Lakes Course covers an additional 100 acres and is a challenging but rewarding course. The 6,642 yard, 18-hole Lakes Course was originally designed by Peter Alliss in 1991 and updated by William Swann in 2006. It is a par72 jewel that has been sculpted out of the typical county terrain. Rolling, well-textured and welcoming fairways lead to USGA standard greens that run smooth, fast and true, but are challengingly contoured to focus the minds of all levels of golfers. The real trouble starts on the greens. Designed to concentrate the mind of the putter, they are undulating, slick and treacherous.

Golf cont‌ The 9th and 17th holes are our signature holes. The English Golf Union hosted their club championships on the Lakes Course which has made the Lakes a true championship course. The 9-hole Garden Course is 3,300 yards long, but if you believe it is a pitch and putt, think again. When played from two sets of tees, it sets up a par-71 course with three par-fives. And if your game’s off, no problem, just enjoy the walk and the wonderful views across The Wiltshire.

The weight of your head? So have you ever thought that your head feels heavy today?
Or your neck is stiff and following that golf ball is a problem? Let alone reversing the car? Your head is the heaviest part of your body propped on top of your thin neck. In an ideal world we would have a military style posture all of the time, with the shoulders pulled back, chest out etc. However as human beings we have developed activities for necessity or enjoyment… often with little consideration for our spines and particularly our heads. e.g. driving, typing, you guessed it… Golf! These activities bring the arms round the front of the body, rolling the shoulders in and the head drops forward… the whole weight of it carried by the neck musculature… that can easily become fatigued. As a chiropractor it is about giving you the knowledge and understanding as to why these activities can become a problem, correcting the dysfunction in the spine and teaching you stretches and strategies that will minimise the impact of poor posture… may even improve your game… or your driving! So the weight of the head…. In an adult its 11lbs or 5kg… if you want to get a feel for the weight of your head, go ten pin bowling and hold an 11lb ball out in front of you. If Golf is a passion then it might be advisable to have your spine checked out and any potential problems highlighted. With this brochure I would like to offer an initial consultation with a full diagnostic workup and a treatment at a normal cost of £40 for FREE… please present this brochure on your appointment: OLD TOWN CHIROPRACTIC Honours 1 Offer session for One Initial Consultation and One Treatment to the Value of £40.

Phase One, 44 homes, were completed in 2008, whilst Phase Two now has five of the new, larger homes built and sold. Each house has a 10-year NHBC Guarantee and is built to the highest standard. All our Phase Two Homes can be redesigned internally by purchasers before building begins. They are mostly owned by residents who use the houses as holiday homes or who have purchased them as buy to let. This mix creates an atmosphere that is friendly and in keeping with a village community. Not all owners are golfers, but all enjoy the ambience of the village nestling in Wiltshire countryside, yet with all the amenities of the Country Club and the town of Wootton Bassett on their doorstep. The infrastructure of roads and services has already been laid for the new Malmesbury, Purton and Bassett houses, thereby causing very little disruption to existing owners.

All home owners are treated as members of the Country Club, rather than residents who have access to the club. All leisure and golf memberships are included as part of the ground rent. The additional homes will complete the final phase of our building work on The Wiltshire Leisure Estate. On offer are beautiful two and three-storey homes with the latest green credentials in a holiday area within the beautiful and historic rolling Wiltshire countryside. The three and four bedroom homes start from 1,050 sq ft to 1,530 sq ft with large living areas and kitchens and can be purchased fully furnished. Home owners have free membership to the leisure centre and golf courses.

Avebury and Ridgeway Homes The Avebury is named after the famous prehistoric great stone circles in Wiltshire, looked on by many as a greater monument than its neighbouring circle at Stonehenge. A substantial 3-bedroomed house at over 1,100 on two floors, it has three bedrooms on the first floor, the master being en-suite and approximately 12’ by 11’. A large family bathroom serves the other two bedrooms. Downstairs, the day space is nearly 20’ by 18’. There is a substantial entrance hall, a kitchen 11’ by 10’, and a downstairs cloakroom. The patios/decking is ideal for lazing away on a hot summer’s day. The Ridgeway homes are named after the famous and historic 87-mile-long Ridgeway National Trail. A smaller 3-bedroom house, but still over 1,010 sq ft, these properties are built to the same design as the Avebury. The day space is nearly 20’ by 16’ and there is a larger than normal kitchen for this style of unit. As with the Avebury, it includes a downstairs cloakroom and good-sized patio/decking area.

The New Phase Two Development This is an exciting time for The Wiltshire Leisure Village with the building of Phase Two now well under way. There has been so much interest in these stunning large family residences, with building of the first houses in Phase Two having now been completed. We invite anyone that may be interested to contact our staff to arrange a viewing of these magnificent properties. The Detached Malmesbury This large 4/5 bed property continues to capture the imagination of everyone who views, benefiting from the spacious contemporary interior with its large airy entrance hallway off which there is a separate dining room/5th bedroom and shower room, through to the super-sized fitted family kitchen/diner which opens onto the stunning day space providing that all-important “wow� factor. The first floor has two large double bedrooms with en-suites and a third guest bedroom with family bathroom. The second floor has a spacious master bedroom with large en-suite. Outside the property benefits from a covered New England-style veranda and large patio or decking making the exterior attractive and charming.

The Semi-Detached Turreted Bassett This large 4/5 bed property has an unusual modern layout that feels exciting and different, the large entrance hallway opens onto a turreted designed light and spacious living room, a large fitted family kitchen, separate dining room/fifth bedroom and a large downstairs shower room. The first floor has three double bedrooms and three bathrooms (two en-suite), while the second floor has a guest room with en-suite. Outside the property has large patio areas from both the dining room and living areas making al fresco dining a must. The Semi-Detached Purton The Purton is a two-storey version of the Malmesbury, and at nearly 1,600 sq ft, is our smallest home. Nevertheless it is still a substantial 3/4 bedroom home. Built to the same exacting standards as the others, it is great quality at a great ptice. Like all our new homes, interior designs can be changed before building begins.
