Nailcote Hall Hotel, the host venue of the annual Farmfoods’ British Par 3 Championship, has kicked off the new golfing season in style with the opening of its new ‘Champions Pavilion’ clubhouse.
The clubhouse is part of a combined development at the West Midlands-based venue, with Nailcote Hall extending its current hotel offering by a further 10 luxury bedrooms which are now open for business.
The clubhouse was officially opened by two-time Major champion Tony Jacklin, who will be hosting the Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship this August for the eighth year running.
The new facilities include ladies’ and men’s changing rooms, a pro shop, dining for up to 60 people, plus a balcony with spectacular views of the Cromwell Course and the 10th hole, ‘Charley’s Bar’ named after the Ladies’ European No. 1 and 2014 Order of Merit winner Charley Hull. The opening of the clubhouse was attended by the golfing star’s parents, Dave and Bassa Hull.
Nailcote Hall’s owner, Rick Cressman commented: “It’s been a long time coming, but after over 20 years in the making, the golf facilities here at the Hall will give everyone who plays here an experience to enjoy from start to finish. Charley Hull has played in the Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship for the last eight years and she is pleased to have the bar named after her. Let’s hope lots more young ladies follow her lead in the future and appreciate the value of playing a great Par 3 course.
“Par 3 golf gives people a great golfing experience without taking up an excessive amount of time and money and it can be enjoyed by everyone. With the new Champions Pavilion, I am sure we will be able to introduce and entertain many more corporate events and society golf days here at Nailcote Hall – Europe’s number one Par 3 venue.”
