Exciting plans for a modern, new clubhouse and a major redevelopment of the playing course at Prenton Golf Club have been unveiled.
The plans also include associated parking and an executive style residential development facing the golf course’s signature hole. The planning application has been prepared by Pegasus Group’s Liverpool Office, directed by Neil Culkin, and Liverpool based Condy Lofthouse Architect, directed by Andrew Armstrong, on behalf of Prenton Golf Club.
The site is accessed off Golf Links Road and currently comprises the existing clubhouse and a car park; part of the course will be remodelled with the proposed clubhouse in a new location and to include 22 new homes.
Gareth Irwin, General Manager of Prenton Golf Club, said: “This is a very exciting time for us, shaping a future that builds on our long-established Golf Club.
“This is an opportunity to bring improvements to the golf experience here at Prenton that will enhance the reputation of the club and attract more members and visitors, thus ensuring the long-term financial sustainability of the business.
“The relocation of the clubhouse enables us to bring the practice ground, putting green and short game area close to each other while creating a dramatic setting for the new clubhouse making it more attractive for functions.”
Amy Rainsford, a senior planner based at Pegasus Group’s Liverpool office, said: “The existing clubhouse building is ageing and deteriorating with limited views of the playing course. The Masterplan includes much-needed executive housing in a sustainable location, helping to offset the lack of housing supply across Wirral.”
The design is led by Graham Bell, Associate from Condy Lofthouse Architects, who said: “The Masterplan has been designed to enhance the golfing experience for members and visitors with new academy coaching facilities. The Prenton Golf Club committee are ambitious and forward thinking and have the next generation of golfers in mind with new and exciting facilities.”
Kimber & Glen, International Golf Course Architects, advised on the design of the scheme.
