Lanhydrock Hotel and Golf Club

What Lanhydrock Hotel and Golf Club does

Lanhydrock Hotel and Golf Club is a family-owned integrated hospitality resort operating since 1993 on a 150-acre site in Bodmin, Cornwall. The business is legally registered as Lanhydrock Golf Club Ltd. (Companies House number 3265159) and is owned and directed by husband-and-wife team Clare and Graham Bond. The company operates an 18-hole parkland golf course (6,100 yards, par 70), a 45-bedroom contemporary hotel, the Nineteen Bar & Bistro restaurant, two conference suites (Turret Suite and St Hydroc Suite), a gym/fitness suite, and an 8-bay covered driving range. Additional amenities include a Trackman IO Indoor Golf Simulator installed in 2025 and an on-site pro shop offering club fitting and tuition led by PGA Professional Alister Tawse.

The core products are organized across seven revenue streams: hotel accommodation (room rates £129-£349 per night), golf green fees (£25-£60 depending on season), annual golf memberships (£78-£930 across categories), food and beverage (including a Sunday carvery), weddings and events (accommodating 12-200 guests), conference and meeting room hire (£250-£625 per day), and gym memberships (£192-£384 annually). The go-to-market model is direct-to-consumer via the company website, telephone bookings, and on-site walk-ins, supplemented by distribution through third-party OTAs (TripAdvisor, Booking.com, Kayak, Expedia) and the BRS Golf tee-time booking system. The customer base spans leisure/golf tourists, golf members (300+), wedding couples, corporate clients, funeral/wake hosts, golf societies, and wellness retreat participants.

The technology infrastructure consists of third-party booking engines (BRS Golf for tee times, High Level Software for hotel availability, LiveRes for restaurant reservations), Stripe payment processing, and the Trackman IO Commercial indoor golf simulator. The business model emphasizes personal service, long-tenured staff relationships, and single-wedding-per-day exclusivity. The Bond family has maintained continuous ownership and operational involvement for over 30 years, with the hotel expansion in 2006 (celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2026) marking the major diversification from a pure golf club into an integrated hospitality venue. Recent strategic activity has focused on facility modernization (Trackman installation, new golf buggy fleet, new website in May 2025) and product extension (Golf Academy launched September 2024).
