Mannings Heath Golf Club in West Sussex is undergoing one of the biggest changes in its 100 year history as the new owners convert one of the two 18-hole courses, the Kingfisher, to 9 holes and plant a vineyard on the 500 acre estate, to create a ‘wine experience’ at the 18th century manor and clubhouse, with wine tastings and fine food.

The enhanced 9-hole layout is more in keeping with the current demands for less time-invasive golf and will encourage youngsters into the game. The changes will take place over time in several phases; this will include redesigning some of the holes, incorporation of alternative tees for a different back nine, a major upgrade of the practice facilities, including a short game area, and the building of a new pro shop.

The 9-hole, 3314 yards Kingfisher course is Par 36, teeing off from the back tees, whilst the 2nd hole is expanded from Par 3 to Par 5 - so that the course is challenging for experienced golfers, whilst beginners can enjoy 9 holes in under 2 hours.

Players on the 18-hole championship Waterfall course and the Kingfisher benefit from new on and off-course facilities, including practice nets and buggy pathways. There are also two putting greens, a practice range, indoor teaching facilities and a fully stocked pro shop.

Wine and golf work very well together as a concept. It will attract new members, visitors and tourists to the area. We plan to develop a winery and new restaurant, with the spike bar refurbished and re-opening as a wine tasting and bar facility, to create additional entertaining and post-golf space.

Mannings has a beautiful 4 bedroom cottage in the grounds that can be rented for golf breaks or accommodation for weekend breaks involving wine tasting experiences and private dining events or just an overnight stay accompanying a dining experience in our new Benguela Brasserie.
