Welcome
Woolston Manor, set in a 200-acre oasis of picturesque Essex countryside near Chigwell, is not just about golf. It is also a fantastic hospitality, function and conference venue. It has a superb modern clubhouse, excellent catering facilities, plus a team of experienced event organisers who are on hand to ensure your day, whatever the occasion, is one to remember. We are blessed with a splendid 18-hole Championship golf course which is regarded as one of the finest in the South East. Designed by former Ryder Cup player Neil Coles MBE and the renowned golf course architect David Williams, it represents a true golfing challenge to players whatever their ability. In its infancy the legendary Gary Player described it as one of the best young courses that he had ever played – praise indeed from an Open Champion who has played all the world’s top layouts! The resplendent Manor which serves as our clubhouse was once owned by William the Conqueror and is mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1085. It really is a magnificent setting, please pay us a visit, you will be made to feel most welcome. We are situated within the M25 and are just two miles from junction 5 of the M11. Docklands and Canary Wharf are approximately 15 minutes away, City airport 8 miles and Stansted International Airport 20 miles away. We may be easy to get to but having discovered us you may find you may not wish to leave!

The Course
The Woolston Manor
course was designed using
the natural features of the land, in particular the river
Roding
which meanders throughout the
course.
As you cross the bridges of the sixth hole you can see numerous types of freshwater fish and in the summer butterflies adorn the second and fifth holes to put you in a relaxing mood at the start of your round. Neil Coles MBE and the renowned golf course architect David Williams designed the 18-hole championship golf course which was opened in the spring of 1994 and since that time it has hosted several large tournaments including the final of the Essex Leslie Wood Trophy on two occasions and the PGA East Region Assistants’ Championship. The course measures 6,510 yards from the white tees with a par of 72. Woolston Manor is regarded throughout the southeast as one of the finest courses with some of the most demanding holes, a true golfing challenge.
6
The course is built to USGA specifications with a state-of-the-art irrigation system and has excellent drainage, meaning that it is playable 365 days a year. It features generous teeing areas, attractively-mown fairways and true-running fast greens and is always presented in excellent condition, creating an enjoyable experience for golfers of all abilities. It is a thinking man’s course where on some of the holes it can pay to leave the driver in the bag. Knowing how far you hit each club is crucial to avoiding trouble, whether it be staying out of the water hazards that come in to play on 12 of the holes, or avoiding the numerous fairway bunkers, which while always being superbly turned out are best admired from the centre of the fairway. There are no weak holes and you have to be on your game from start to finish. There are, however, birdie opportunities, such as on the par5 12th, where you can choose to try and cut off the corner and go for the green in two. The risk is if you do not strike your shot sweetly, your ball could find a watery grave. The reward? A potential putt for eagle. The 18th is a memorable finishing hole that is sure to set your pulse racing, with another approach shot over water which has the potential to ruin many a good round of golf! Woolston Manor’s signature hole, however, is the 13th which features an island green for your second shot.

The Professional Team
Our Director of Golf at Woolston Manor is Bradley Preston, who has been with us since 2007. Bradley qualified as a PGA Golf Professional in 1994 after spending three years as a student at Kingston University studying a HND in Golf Studies alongside his PGA qualifications. He has gained immense knowledge during his time working within the golf industry, much of it spent in Essex. He was formerly Director of Golf at Fairlop Waters, before joining the Hainault Forest golf complex, which he helped grow into one of the busiest golf clubs in England. Bradley oversees his own Golf Academy at Woolston Manor and can often be seen imparting his knowledge to pupils on the golf range. He is an adept coach whatever the ability of his student and among the players who come to him for guidance is Brian Davis, an English-born professional who earns his living playing on the ultra-competitive PGA Tour in the United States. The other member of the Professional team is Joe Benson, who is also an expert teacher and a specialist in custom-fitting golf clubs. Joe joined the club from the American Golf Complex in Sidcup, having previously worked at Hainault Forest. Prior to that he enjoyed three years playing on the Jamega Pro Golf Tour, achieving some excellent results including seven top-five finishes.

In common with other clubs we do insist on a minimum standard of smart casual dress at all times. Blue denim is not permitted and correct golf shoes must always be worn on the course. Although handicap certificates are not mandatory, we do prefer golfers to be of a sufficient standard for them to be able to enjoy their round and for them not to inconvenience other players when out on the course.

Win M a sung ui Jim lass es
Protect your vision and improve your handicap Spending hours on the golf course means that your vision is exposed to harmful UV radiation and glare. It’s important that you protect your vision at all times, even if the sun isn’t shining on the 18th green. Sunglasses that offer 100% UV protection and colour enhancing technology will enable you to distinguish the green from the fairway, while you keep an eye on your ball. Sunglass brand Maui Jim has revolutionised sunglasses by combining patented colour-enhancing technology, polarisation and glare elimination to give you an uncompromised view of the golf course. Maui Jim eyewear blocks out 100% of harmful UV radiation and gives you the ultimate colour picture right in front of your eyes.
At Bird & Fairley Opticians, we’re giving you the opportunity to improve your handicap and win a free pair of Maui Jim sunglasses. All you have to do is visit www.betterhandicap.co.uk and enter your details to be in with a chance of winning.

Social Activities With
friendly, approachable members and staff
and outstanding off-course facilities, we really feel there is nowhere better to enjoy not only your golf, but everything else that a well-rounded golf club has to offer.
The magnificent setting in the Essex countryside lends itself to some spectacular golf, but it is a pretty special place to relax as well. Many events are put on at the club throughout the year for members, but there are also a host of activities arranged which are open to everyone. Comedy Club nights featuring the likes of Bob Mills have been a huge hit, while it will come as no surprise to learn that a sportsman’s evening hosted by local West Ham footballing legends Tony Cottee and Tony Gale was equally well received. A young vibrant club has a different outlook on life to many more ‘traditional’ golfing establishments. How many other golf clubs do you know who have organised girls’ nights or pool parties? There is so much more besides, with something to appeal to everyone, from family fun days with face painting, pool games, Tri Golf and ice cream, to summer balls to tribute bands.
