New Golf Facilities For 2026
New For 2026 - The Douglas Course
Designed to challenge, inspire and reward golfers of every ability, The Douglas marks a new chapter for golf at Matfen Hall.
Named in honour of the estate's heritage, The Douglas combines nine newly designed greens with the classic character of the original layout. Dry-stone walls, natural water obstacles and the fast-flowing River Pont all feature across an 18-hole journey through some of the north of England's finest countryside.
WHATS NEW:
- Nine newly designed greens
- New irrigation system
- New driving range
- Adventure Golf
- The Himalayas Putting Green
- Woodland path connecting the Hall to the Par-3 Course and Driving Range
The Douglas - Our Championship Course
The Douglas takes its name from the reimagined nine-hole layout - nine green complexes completely redesigned by James Edwards and combined with the existing Standing Stone nine to create a full 18-hole championship course. The result is a layout that feels entirely new while honouring what was already here.

The Academy
Arriving later this summer, Matfen Hall's new practice facility sets a new standard for golf in the north of England.
A 15-bay Toptracer Range, Golf Academy, short-game area and all-weather 18-hole putting course sit alongside a Himalayas-style putting green - designed and built by James Edwards.
