The course was originally conceived by Harry Vardon, winner of a record six Open Championships, who designed the holes to fit around the elegant family home in 1890. Since then, Jack Nicklaus Junior was commissioned to reinvigorate the course and make sure that it was relevant to the rigours of the modern professional game.
The result is astounding, as the 7,052 layout is now among the country's elite and is a true pleasure to play. The mature trees and expanses of water that characterise the estate make for a spectacular landscape, helping to explain why Hanbury Manor is regarded as one of the finest destinations for a golf break in all of England. In 2025, Hanbury Manor was proudly inducted into the prestigious Eminent Collection by the respected 59club.
On the tough 8th, be sure to hit the fairway, otherwise your approach to the closely guarded plateau green will be even more difficult, and could end in a watery grave.
The Legends Tour has visited Hanbury Manor in 2023 & 2024 while the Rose Ladies Open was held there in 2025.

Great hotel for what we wanted (ladies trip). Only issue is we paid £40ph for dinner, and printed on the menu was actually £35ph!

Room was spacious and clean, well stocked with tea/coffee making facilities. Unfortunately the cast iron restaurant was closed and dinner in the Vardon was very limited. Strong smell of bleach throughout the day and evening.

Very good rooms, comfortable beds and well appointed rooms. Set menu for evening meal worked very well with the options available. Breakfast was excellent with a wide selection of things available. However some of the party arrived early on the Sunday and had breakfast. This was charged at £18.50 which zi think is a bit too much considering a party of 15 were staying with them. Drinks were a little on the expensive side, especially the wine. Bars closed at 11pm on Sunday night and the party of 15 would have spent another hour in their.

Had a one night stay, 2 rounds of golf. Without being spectacular, the overall experience at the hotel was superb. This was in large part down to the wonderful staff...whoever recruits and trains these professional and friendly people needs an award. Worried about the dreaded " buffet breakfast" but it was extensive and fresh. Good swimming pool and large pleasant room .

Booked 2 rounds and overnight stay. First afternoon round was v slow and they give preference to 4 balls. Really beautiful, well kept course - with fantastic views. Some issue with morning tee time on 2nd day as we were bumped back from original tee time at booking. The golf pro and his team really helpful and in the end we played the back 9 before the front 9 and had the first 9 holes to ourselves!

Really enjoyed the experience. Course and its surrounds is very impressive. Plays hard but fair. Would very much like to play there again. All of our group enthused about the quality of playing at Hanbury Manor.

We found the staff in the pro shop very helpful and accommodating. Due to bad weather on Sunday, we asked if it was possible to play on Monday instead. There was no problem.

Everyone in the party of 15 really enjoyed both rounds. The guys in the pro shop were super helpful which made everything easy for me as organiser. Buggy price a little bit expensive at £50. Usually paying £40. Halfway house was not open on the Sunday which was a shame.

Course played well with greens accessible if your drive was in the right place. Greens good.
