Set in the heart of Hertfordshire's countryside, Hanbury Manor is a Jacobean-style manor house spread across more than 200 acres of parkland, just 25 miles north of central London. If you're coming for the golf, you'll be well looked after, but it also works brilliantly as a spa-and-country-house break for non-golfers or mixed groups.
On site you'll find 161 rooms and suites, two bars and restaurants, a spa and leisure club with a modern fitness centre and 13 meeting and event spaces. Golf is the headline act, with a championship course redesigned by Jack Nicklaus II from a Harry Vardon original design, plus a pro shop and an indoor simulator for warm-ups or coaching.
The course has a strong tournament record, hosting the English Open three times as well as the 2023 and 2024 Legends Tour and, most recently, the 2025 Rose Ladies Open. Located just 25 miles north of central London, Hanbury Manor is a favourite for those looking to swap the capital for a countryside escape without a long drive.
Who is this for?
Golf groups and societies who want a quality parkland course with great on-site facilities, plus couples and mixed groups where some will play and others will head to the spa.
Who is it best for?
London and South East golfers after a weekend break with minimal travel time, mid-handicappers who enjoy a championship-style test and corporate parties combining meetings with golf.
