Green light for Elstree Golf Club revamp
Elstree Golf and Country Club in Hertfordshire will undergo a £2.5m redevelopment after Hertsmere Borough Council approved plans submitted by architects Bell Phillips Kimble.
Work on the site will begin in March 2010 and will include the construction of a new two-storey clubhouse incorporating a bar and restaurant, changing facilities, a pro-shop and offices to replace the existing clubhouse.
The club’s 30-bay driving range will also be refurbished, with new cladding and floodlighting being added.
Remodelling of the existing course will provide a new 18th green adjacent to the clubhouse and an enlarged lake, while the existing car park will be upgraded to include new lighting, planting and pedestrian access.
The new facilities are expected to be completed by the beginning of 2011.
