Putting business first, on and off the course

Golf and business are inextricably linked, with many a business deal discussed on the fairways and plenty of friendly competition between firms as they compete in charity golf days.

At Northampton Golf Club the opportunities go well beyond a chance to network and build relationships, with membership offers and clubhouse facilities that make it an excellent base to combine business and pleasure.

Situated on the outskirts of Northampton, within the grounds of Harlestone Park, the club offers an 18-hole championship course with a stunning clubhouse. The club also boasts an excellent coaching team, led by PGA club professional Nick Soto, who are available all year round to cater for all stages of the learning process from beginner to tour professional. There’s also a well-stocked club shop and a fitness suite to help golfers keep in peak condition all year round.

Golf Manager Luke Barney said:

“We have a fantastic course set in picturesque countryside, close to Northampton but where you feel you’re in the heart of the countryside. It’s a popular club, with excellent facilities and members have the opportunity to make full use of all the options available, from building client relationships by bringing guests to play here, or booking meeting rooms for when you just need to get away from the office.”

Opportunities at Northampton Golf Club include:

  • Booking a round of golf to strengthen business relationships, or build new ones, within an impressive setting
  • Gaining brand visibility through sponsorship opportunities or company events
  • Support from the events team in creating a corporate event that will impress clients and visitors
  • The chance to arrange team building days that combine meeting facilities and then a round of golf to relax and focus on wellbeing

Business gatherings of all sizes can take advantage of the stunning setting of Harlestone Park. The Spencer Room on the first floor can cater for up to 20 people, while the Lake View Suite has potential for up to 100 delegates, theatre-style.

For bookings of eight or more people, competitive delegate rates are available. The full-day rate includes room hire, flipchart and pens, screen and projector, refreshments including coffee or tea and bacon rolls on arrival, mid-morning coffee, buffet lunch, coffee or tea in the afternoon. There’s also a half-day delegate rate and tailored packages can be arranged through the events team.
