1.25pm 10th January 2025 - <a href="https://golfbusinessnews.com/news/property/">Property</a> <br><a href="https://www.theclubcompany.com">The Club Company</a>, the UK’s largest golf and country club owner, has expanded its portfolio to 18 with the acquisition of <a href="https://www.thenottinghamshire.com">The Nottinghamshire Golf & Country Club</a> from local entrepreneur Alan Hardy.<br /><br />Situated in the heart of the Nottinghamshire countryside and voted The Midlands’ best golf course, this latest acquisition offers two 18-hole golf courses, a driving range and a 30-room boutique hotel. The club also boasts a restaurant, and a thriving events and wedding business.<br /><br />With one of the largest ladies’ sections in the country, The Nottinghamshire also aligns perfectly with The Club Company’s commitment to raise the profile of women’s golf and champion a more inclusive culture – a goal supported by the recent signing of the R&A’s Women in Golf Charter.<br /><br />Richard Calvert, Chief Executive Officer of The Club Company said: “We are delighted to welcome The Nottinghamshire into The Club Company family. The club has an outstanding reputation, and we are committed to building on Alan’s hard work by continuing to invest in the club and its facilities for the benefit of members and visitors alike.”<br /><br />Former owner Alan Hardy said: “It is with mixed emotions that I can confirm I’ve come to the end of my 14-year journey with The Nottinghamshire. I am proud that we’ve created something special in that time and now have a fantastic team of over 100 people. The Nottinghamshire now joins The Club Company as their 18th club, and I leave the club in their more than capable hands.”<br>The 2025 G4D season begins on January 11 with the All Abilities Challenge Series in Wellington, New Zealand, while the first European tournament starts just two days later at Pestana Vale da Pinta, Portugal on January 13.<br>Visitors to Mansfield Sand's stand at BTME 2025 will have the chance to explore an exceptional range of sand-based products designed to elevate the performance and health of golf courses and sports pitches.<br>Premium golf apparel brand Abacus Sportwear’s new rainwear collection is set to launch at the 2025 PGA Show in Orlando. <br><a href="https://twitter.com/home?status=https://golfbusinessnews.com/news/property/the-club-company-acquires-the-nottinghamshire/" rel="noopener" data-via="eGolfBusiness" data-hashtags="GolfBusinessNews">Share on Twitter</a> <br><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://golfbusinessnews.com/news/property/the-club-company-acquires-the-nottinghamshire/&title=The+Club+Company+acquires+The+Nottinghamshire&source=GolfBusinessNews.com" rel="noopener">Share on LinkedIn</a><br>GolfBusinessNews.com (GBN) is for the many thousands of people who work in the golf business all around the world.<br>We cover the full range of topics both on and off the course.
