Spofforth Golf Course comes to market

10.24am 1st August 2023 - Property

HMH Golf & Leisure, along with locally based joint agents Lister Haigh, is bringing Spofforth Golf Course and Manor Farm in North Yorkshire to market at a guide price of £2m. 

Situated in the much sought after ‘golden triangle’ between Harrogate, Leeds and York, this freehold property extends to 52.7 hectares (130 acres). It offers an 18-hole, 6,176-yard, par-72 golf course, which is operated on a pay-and-play basis, along with a six-bay driving range, clubhouse, 4-bedroom bungalow, 1-bed studio, and an extensive range of farm buildings. The highly attractive, undulating and part-wooded property offers scope for a wide range of uses.

Ben Allen, of HMH Golf & Leisure, said: “Spofforth Golf Course is a hidden gem. Opened in 1994 as a diversification of Manor Farm (a previous cereal and beef enterprise), the business has always been operated on a low-key basis to suit the previous owner’s lifestyle. 

“While Spofforth Golf Course’s potential for commercialisation is obvious, this attractive property will undoubtedly also appeal to buyers seeking a rural, ring-fenced property for residential, amenity or other uses. HMH currently has 11 golf courses under offer at various locations around the country and, as always, expect strong interest in Spofforth Golf Course.”

John Haigh, of Lister Haigh, added: “Spofforth Golf Course/Manor Farm offers an incredible opportunity to purchase land and property of a scale that is rarely seen in a location this close to Harrogate. As interest in the Golden Triangle’s property market continues to thrive, seizing the chance to invest in Spofforth Golf Course/Manor Farm presents the potential for substantial returns or the prospect of a forever home. 

“The property offers highly versatile features to suit a range of purchasers. The rich history has already demonstrated the flexibility the freehold has to offer and with ever growing land uses such as carbon capture and woodland creation the future is bright for the listing.”
