Macdonald Hotels & Resorts extends Club Car partnership for four more years

1.00pm 5th April 2019 - Corporate

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts is set to unveil a fleet of state-of-the-art golf cars at venues across the UK, following a renewed four-year deal with Club Car, a world-leading manufacturer of small-wheel, zero-emissions electric vehicles, through licensed dealer Carryway, who deliver and maintain the vehicles.

The agreement marks an extension of a long-standing partnership with Club Car, Official Supplier to the European Tour, and specialist golf vehicle dealer Carryway, which will see the arrival of 137 Tempo golf cars.

Five of the group’s golf venues including Macdonald Portal Hotel, Golf & Spa, Macdonald Hill Valley Hotel, Golf & Spa, Macdonald Cardrona Hotel, Golf & Spa, Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club and Macdonald Spey Valley Resort will receive the new vehicles.

Modern and distinctive in styling, the Tempo golf cars are some of the most hi-tech in the industry. The new fleet has been upgraded with drinks coolers, premium leather seats and bluetooth technology allowing golfers to connect their devices for phone calls or entertainment purposes.

The new vehicles represent a strong investment in the golf facilities on offer at the hotels, which have a reputation for being some of the finest in the country.

Earlier this year Macdonald Hotels & Resorts announced a partnership with the PGA EuroPro Tour for the forthcoming 2019 golf season, which will see four tour events played at a Macdonald Hotel golf course this summer.

Keith Pickard, group director of leisure and golf at Macdonald Hotels & Resorts, said: “Our golf courses have long been regarded as some of the best in the country. By continuously investing in our golf facilities, we are committed to providing the best possible experience to those who use them.”

Kevin Hart, Director of Golf Sales EMEA at Club Car, said: “We have always been proud to work with Macdonald Hotels & Resorts, and the extension of our partnership means that their guests can rest assured that they are getting the best on the market when they play at a Macdonald venue.

“I’d like to take the opportunity to thank Iain Black and the team at Carryway, who’s exceptional after-care service has made them a trusted partner of Macdonald and has been key in securing this deal for another four years.”
