Hanbury Manor Marriott Hotel and Country Club is a five-star, 17th-century Jacobean manor house set within 200 acres of rolling Hertfordshire parkland, just 25 miles from London. The 161 guest rooms blend period character with contemporary comfort — en-suite bathrooms, flat-screen TVs, deep bathtubs, and free Wi-Fi are standard throughout, with many rooms overlooking the manicured gardens or the championship fairways. Dining options span The Cast Iron Grill for evening meals, the Oak Hall and Cocktail Bar for drinks, and Vardon’s in the golf clubhouse for a relaxed post-round setting.
Hanbury Manor’s championship course, designed by Jack Nicklaus II, is the centrepiece of any golf break here. A par-72 parkland layout stretching across the estate’s grounds, it features strategic water hazards and challenging bunkering that have previously attracted the English Open. The course rewards thoughtful course management, and practice facilities including a driving range, putting greens, and a golf academy allow players to prepare properly before taking it on.
Beyond the course, guests have access to a full spa, indoor pool, and gym — ideal for recovery between rounds or for travelling companions seeking a Hertfordshire countryside escape. For those planning England golf holidays within easy reach of the capital, Hanbury Manor offers a combination of genuine championship golf and manor house luxury that is hard to match in the south-east.
