Our scheme to redevelop Feldon Valley Golf Course has won planning consent from Stratford On Avon District Council. Feldon Valley is situated in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, 3 miles east of Shipston-on-Stour.
There are three main elements to the development:
- Renovation and extension of existing clubhouse, with reconfigured interior and enhanced external terraces.
- Introduction of new overnight accommodation, comprising an L-shaped 2-storey hotel and four single-storey woodland lodges within the adjacent copse, providing rooms for up to 60 guests in an idyllic rural setting.
- New replacement purpose-built greenkeeping facility, thereby freeing up space for new ‘Ecology Island’ which will include a wild flower meadow, turf nursery, small fruit orchard and space for growing beds for the clubhouse kitchen to grow their own produce.
A shared palette of natural weathering materials that are sympathetic to the natural setting of the Cotswolds AONB form a unifying feature of the proposals for Feldon Valley, helping to define a distinct local character and sense of identity, with this contextual material application helping to embed the buildings into the landscape setting.
