Lexden Wood Golf Club in Essex has said it “is set for a significant transformation that promises to benefit both golfers and the local community” following its sale.
The acquisition will see major investment across the club and its facilities including upgraded greens and golf facilities, events space and leisure activities, a spokesman for club has stated.
New Lexden Wood Golf Club director Jonathan Greaves says: “We have hit the ground running and have already upgraded the range, bought a new ball picker, installed improved lighting, and taken delivery of new balls, mats, and targets.”
Following the acquisition, the new owners have also wasted no time in getting started on interior and exterior renovation and a long-term investment programme.
A new greenkeeper has been appointed to oversee the club’s 18-hole course and USPGA specification greens and tees.
The new owners aim to re-establish Lexden Wood as a premier golf destination while also attracting visitors of all ages for family and leisure activities.
Plans include a refurbished dinosaur-themed crazy golf course, opening for February half-term, and a new fitness studio, expected to be completed by May 2025.
“If you haven’t visited for a while, please come and see us,” concludes Jonathan. “The feedback from members and visitors has been really positive and we look forward to shaping a bright future for the club and the area.”
