The Grove has announced a host of investments in its award-winning golf experience ahead of its 20th anniversary celebrations next year.
Work is already under way at five-star Hertfordshire-based resort to extend The Stables Bar and enhance the outdoor terrace and courtyard areas to further elevate the food and beverage offering.
The Locker Rooms, Stables Toilets and Halfway House are also undergoing significant renovations.
Earlier this year The Grove unveiled one of the first grass tee TrackMan Range installations in Europe, and soon it will also become the first venue in Europe to offer golf cars with music when a new fleet of high-spec Club Car vehicles, complete with Bluetooth speakers, is delivered.
Anna Darnell, Resort Director at The Grove, said: “We are taking our guest experience to another level with these important enhancements. We pride ourselves on having a world-class golf offering and our aim is to lead the industry in offering customers personalisation and standout levels of service.
“The grand unveiling in April 2023, along with our beautiful Mansion rooms and suites being refurbished, will be perfectly timed for the celebrations we’re planning for The Grove’s 20thanniversary.”
The current bar in The Stables – where most golfers head for refreshments after their round – will be extended, creating a private area for small golf groups when required and also allowing for 32 additional seats for our leisure golfers.
The Stables courtyard, which is mainly used for private golf functions, will have a new bar, pergola and furniture throughout. Both that area and The Stables terrace will benefit from stylish new furnishings, parasols and garden features.
A revamped Halfway House will have a walk-in fridge, draught beer on tap, a wider choice of food and renovated toilets.
Commenting on the new fleet of Club Car golf carts and additions to the practice range, Director of Golf Brad Gould said: “We strive to be innovative and set ourselves apart, so we are proud to be the first venue in the United Kingdom to offer Club Car golf cars with speakers. Players will be able to connect and play their choice of music on the course, and the cars have in-built USB charging to keep phones fully charged. We now also have speakers on the practice range as well as TrackMan technology, adding further enjoyment and entertainment to our customers’ warm-up and practice.”
