STAPLEFORD PARK GOLF COURSE
 
"It is like playing Millionaires Golf "
 
Stapleford Park is far more than a fabulous home for golf. The seductive blend of luxury and informality, in one of England's finest stately homes, provides a unique and relaxing ambience.

Of all the courses in the world, very few are free from intrusion, be it housing or a busy road. The course at Stapleford Park is a rare exception, being in the delightfully pure setting of a Capability Brown landscape, with ever changing views of Stapleford's stately home, its lakes and five hundred acre park. This is classic English countryside at its very best.


Trick-shot king at Stapleford!

Jeremy Dale

Jeremy Dale, one of the world’s leading trick shot artists is part of the Stapleford Park professional team.

 

The driving range at Stapleford Park is where you can see Jeremy flawlessly hit shots on the run, drive from a head-high tee and, most spectacularly of all, slice and hook the ball 40 yards laterally in the air right handed, then turn around and do the same thing from the other side with his driver upended onto its toe.

 

Jeremy is available for corporate golf days where he can demonstrate his trick shot show to inspire those taking part.

 

In addition to his trick shot show he also runs a scoring school at Stapleford Park. This is a daylong group instruction course dedicated not to the swing but rather to the art of scoring. The day starts with a lecture in which he builds an indisputable case about the primary importance of the short game, works with questions and answers to get his students to understand and accept their limits and to seize on what they can improve upon, then moves to the practice putting green and range, where he demonstrates routines and drills designed to replace guesswork with both knowledge and anticipation of the pleasure the short game can give you, not to mention improved results.

 

No single lesson about technique could possibly lower your score like this does. It is an innovative and practical and invites you into the lucid and efficient in thinking of the pro in a way that is comprehensible and applicable to the amateur.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

The course wraps around the heart of the parkland in two extended loops, never being more than two holes wide, making it unusually spacious and peaceful. This configuration is reminiscent of the great links courses, such as the Old Course at St Andrews, as it provides continuing variety in the direction of the holes, as well as producing a series of stunning views.

Woods, ponds and streams, all teeming with wildlife, feature on many holes, although the meandering River Eye perhaps adds greatest strategic interest to the golf, coming into play on four holes.

Enjoyment is the crucial factor and on every hole, all standards of player are given a fair crack of the whip, with approaches on which the ball can be run onto the green.

Particular care has been taken during the design of the course to ensure that this exceptional historic landscape remains pristine.

The distinctive Scottish-style revetted bunkers have been used to exert maximum influence on the play of the better golfer, who is tempted to flirt with them to gain the advantage of being in prime position for the next shot. Grassy humps and hollows have also been used to shape the holes because they are less intimidating for the higher handicapper and the scratch player knows all too well the hazard that such features present.

This quintessential English golfing experience will enthral golfers from all over the world.
