Porthpean Golf Club, Cornwall, Sold Through HMH

2.10pm 22nd May 2024 - Property

Porthpean Golf Club was put up for sale last September with offers invited in excess of £1.25m. A proprietary golf club established 1992, Porthpean (pictured) is situated mid-way between Falmouth and Plymouth on the Cornwall’s popular southern coastline.

The property, which has been offered as a retirement sale, comprises an 18-hole, 5,253-yard, par 67 golf course with a clubhouse, both of which offer fine views over St Austell Bay. The front nine plays though inland mature parkland/ woodland, with the back holes opening up to a coastal setting with far-reaching sea views.

Additional facilities include a large decking area adjoining the 231 sq. m. (2,486sq ft) single storey clubhouse, greenkeeping building and car parking. The freehold property extends to 35.3 hectares/87 acres, with further land available by separate negotiation.

It is located in a commercial trading location on the outskirts of St Austell in a renowned tourist hotspot – a profitable lifestyle business with obvious scope for further commercialisation.

Ben Allen at HMH told GBN: “As we anticipated, Porthpean Golf Club proved to be of great interest to buyers seeking a lifestyle business. The Club’s unique setting overlooking St Austell Bay was a significant draw for many. The Club has been sold to Glyn Rowett – a local entrepreneur – who plans to retain the Club’s membership ethos, whilst also investing in new facilities to commercialise the business.”

New owner, Glyn Rowett, added; “We are delighted to complete the purchase of Porthpean Golf Club. The club has great potential and we have plans to further enhance the offering to our members and local community. I’m delighted that Mark Grieve has joined the club as Club Manager and will use his 30 years experience for the benefit of the club.”
