Welcome

Stanmore Golf Club opened in 1893 and for more than a century has been

a source of pleasure and pride to countless golfers. Set in magnificent

mature parkland, Stanmore provides a delightful yet challenging golfing

environment for both members and visitors alike.

To find such a fine course in this secluded setting so close to London

is a constant surprise to the visitor. Members are rightly proud of their

club, which is a nice mixture of traditional private members’ club, but

at the same time modern and progressive. Our membership categories

encourage a healthy balance of young professionals, couples, and retirees

from all walks of life – brought together by a common passion for the

world’s greatest game!

One of the most challenging courses in Middlesex with treelined fairways

demanding accuracy from the start.

The course plays to 5,974 yards as a par 69 and provides a good test of golf

for players of all abilities. The scenery is memorable too, with spectacular

views across the county from the highest points on the course.

The clubhouse opens onto a south-facing patio in front of the 18th green

with a spectacular view over the course and provides the perfect setting

for weddings, functions and conferences. The relaxing surroundings are

matched by outstanding service from Stanmore’s attentive staff.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

History

From its extraordinary origins as a ‘gift’ from the Gordon family,

Stanmore Golf Club has been both a place to play golf seriously and also

a retreat to enjoy the company of friends and acquaintances. Pleasure and

competition, companionship and rivalry, striving against others and the

private contest with the course itself; these are some of the themes that

run through the history of our club.

When Frederick Gordon moved into the hotel business, he began

building the largest chain of hotels in the world, including five major

hotels in London. He became one of the world’s greatest hoteliers with

a personal wealth estimated at £2m, an enormous sum at the end of the

19th century.

In 1882 Gordon bought Bentley Priory, a fine 18th century house, turning

part of it into a luxury country hotel. He promptly built a branch line to

link his estates with the main rail connections at Wealdstone - a station

house still stands at the junction of Gordon Avenue and Old Church

Lane. He then began to lay out a golf course over neighbouring Stanmore

Park, initially for the amusement of his friends and guests.

Gordon had an elite circle of friends including lawyers, city brokers and

MPs, and it was in 1893 together with his friend Thomas Francis Blackwell

(of the Crosse & Blackwell dynasty) that they turned it into a private

members club with lawns and tennis courts.

Page 7: Stanmore Golf Club Official Brochure 2015

www.stanmoregolfclub.co.uk | 7

After the Great War Alister MacKenzie was employed to reconstruct

the course. MacKenzie was one of the first most prominent golf course

designers who, in the late 1920’s relocated to the United States where he

carried out some of his most notable work including Augusta National

Golf Club.

His approach “to imitate the beauties of nature (and presumably the

hazards) so closely as to make his work indistinguishable from nature

itself ” formed the basis of turning Stanmore Golf Club into the charming

oasis that you see today.

The Course

We are very proud of our golf course, which we believe to be the

most picturesque and enjoyable to play in the area. The course plays to

5,974 yards as a par 69 and provides a good test of golf for players of all

abilities. The treelined fairways make accuracy from the tee important.

We have two par 5s, five tricky par 3s, with the remaining par 4s of

varying lengths. Each hole has a character of its own, and the course

offers spectacular views of the surrounding area.

The 7th, a 352-yard par 4 off the white tees, is probably the hole visitors

remember most from a visit to Stanmore. It is a very picturesque hole,

situated at one of the highest points in Middlesex and offers stunning

views across the county.

Stanmore is not a particularly long course, but is quite narrow and will

test your ability to hit straight off the tee to the full. Big trees and thick

bushes are waiting everywhere ready to penalise errant shots. Several

doglegs allow the really proficient golfer the chance to showcase their

abilities, with the opportunity to shape shots both ways throughout

the round.

On most holes it is better to be short than long because invariably a

great deal of trouble awaits behind the greens. Having hit the green, you

will find the putting surfaces fast and true and in exceptional condition.

Tuition

Whether you’re an accomplished player or simply looking to get into the

game, the quickest and easiest way to play better golf and lower your

scores is to book a lesson with one of our PGA professionals.

We have several styles of tuition to suit your need from a personal one-

to-one lesson to a more relaxed group lesson with other players of a

similar standard. We will teach golf techniques that get the most out of

your game whatever age or standard you may be.

Our coaching facilities include a covered practice area, practice green,

chipping and pitching area and two practice bunkers and an 18 hole course.

On-course tuition enables technique and the tactical side to the game to

be addressed at the same time.

Learning the correct thought process can often be an eye-opening and

rewarding experience for the novice player and can lead to better scores.

Why not buy gift vouchers for a loved one if you think their golf needs a

little help. Or for special occasions.

Practice on the Green Dental CareWhere caring dentistry comes into play…

Do you have bleeding gums?Are you aware of the link between Gum disease

and heart disease?

Your mouth is a window to your overall health and many debilitating illnesses can be linked to your oral heath status. Many medications and diseases (such as diabetes) can affect your body’s response to bacteria and infection, potentially making you high risk for dental decay and periodontal disease

which in turn can have detrimental effect on your health.

When you come for your check up, not only does your dentist insure your teeth are healthy but your dentist will also be doing a cancer screening, performing a periodontal (gum) screening

and assessing for any potential future problems.

We believe that everyone deserves a beautiful smile and the best possible care.

We have taken great care in equipping each surgery with up to date instruments, equipment and materials to ensure your visit to us will be enjoyable and painless. We strongly believe in preserving the old-fashioned atmosphere of a family orientated, friendly dental surgery where you will feel secure in the knowledge that we will always do our very best to

accommodate you and make you feel at home.

St Luke’s Hospice

Stanmore Golf Club is a keen fund-raiser for charity, particularly for

the local St. Luke’s Hospice for whom we have raised several thousand

pounds since forming our association around six years ago.

St Luke’s, based in Kenton Road, Harrow, is a cause close to our heart

and a pillar for the local community, doing some wonderful work and

providing expert care to patients and much-needed support to their

relatives and friends.

St Luke’s is an independent charity and like most charities in recent

times has felt the results of the credit squeeze. We at Stanmore are in

the fortunate position where we are able to help and do so at every

opportunity.

One of the most popular events we hold to raise money is the

Greenkeeper’s Revenge Golf Day, generally held at the start of

September. This is an opportunity for Stanmore’s head greenkeeper to

get his own back on members for any criticism that has been levelled at

him throughout the year. Industrial fairway mowers are placed to guard

the greens, pin positions are chosen to ensure nigh impossible putts,

flags are randomly removed from greens, and golfers are dowsed by the

course sprinklers when they least expect it.

A meal and charity auction follows, while local businesses are hugely

supportive in sponsoring holes and offering raffle prizes.

For more information on St Luke’s, visit the website, www.stlukes-hospice.

How to Find us

Stanmore Golf Club is handily placed, with excellent links to Central

London. We are just 15 miles from Marble Arch, and one mile from

Stanmore tube station (Jubilee Line) and two miles from junction 4 of

the M1 Motorway.

However, once you are out on the course, the seclusion provided by

hundreds of mature trees means that you would not know you were so

close to central London.

For satellite navigation purposes our postcode is HA7 2RL.

Directions from the M1

If travelling south/eastbound on the M1, leave at junction 4 and exit on

to the A41 Edgware Way. (Note if travelling north/westbound on the

M1 there is no exit at junction 4, it is necessary to leave at junction 5,

rejoin the motorway heading in the opposite direction and then leave at

junction 4). Turn right at the next roundabout after about one mile onto

the A410. Continue straight on for nearly two miles, ignoring turnings

to the left and right for the A4140. Turn left into The Chase and after

500 yards turn left into Gordon Avenue. The entrance to the club is

signposted and is around 400 yards down on the right.
