Unique golf coaching breaks launched in County Durham for 2010

The award-winning country house hotel, Headlam Hall, is to be the base for a range of Golf Coaching Breaks and Holidays this year.

Guests will have the chance to improve their game whilst enjoying a relaxing short break at Headlam Hall, one of the north east’s leading country house hotels. Headlam has a £2.5 million Spa, tennis court, croquet lawn, and is situated in 250 acres of rolling Teesdale countryside, near the market town of Barnard Castle.

Headlam Golf Course, which lies adjacent to the hotel and spa, is a superb USGA specification 9-hole course set over mature rolling pasture land, with an abundance of natural features. There is also a 10-bay covered driving range, a chipping area and practice putting green. The resident professional is Steven Carpenter, who has been qualified and teaching for over 20 years in both the UK and Germany.

The two night Golf Coaching Package is available throughout 2010, and includes accommodation in a double or twin room, full English breakfast daily, two-course a la carte dinner each night, 3 ½ hours’ golf tuition, and unlimited use of the excellent 9-hole course and the hotel’s spa facilities. The tuition can include long game, short game and putting, and 9 holes on course with the Pro for visualisation, golf strategy and shot execution, is per couple and is taken in 30-minute sessions.

Prices are £170 per person for the two night package, based on accommodation in a Headlam Classic Room, and £195 in a Deluxe room.
