The Belfry Hotel & Resort, an award-winning luxury hotel and resort home to three iconic golf courses in Royal Sutton Coldfield, North Warwickshire, has claimed victory with four wins at the prestigious World Golf Awards 2021.
The Belfry’s legendry Brabazon course, which has hosted The Ryder Cup more than any other venue in the world, was crowned England’s Best Golf Course and also took home the award for Europe’s Best Golf Course for its unrivalled conditioning and layout. The Belfry also won World’s Best Golf Hotel and Europe’s Best Golf Hotel for its high-quality facilities and exceptionally high standard of service.
Chris Eigelaar, Resort General Manager at The Belfry, said: “It is an honour to have received four awards at the World Golf Awards; we are delighted to be placed amongst the world’s elite. It has been a challenging year, but our team have excelled, and we could not be prouder of their dedication and passion for delivering exceptional hospitality, service and always going above and beyond what we ask of them. It is fantastic to receive this recognition from our guests and uphold The Belfry’s reputation as a world-class golfing resort.”
The Belfry has recently hosted four major championships firmly placing the resort back on the radar for golf tournaments. This included the British Challenge which took place on the PGA National Course; the FootGolf UK Open 2021 on The Derby course; the Betfred British Masters 2021 which took place on the Brabazon course; and the ISPS HANDA UK Championship 2020, also on the Brabazon course.
This week it was also announced that The Brabazon is now available to play as a virtual golf course on Toptracer. The course is available to play on all Toptracer ranges globally across 30 countries, including at The Belfry’s own Driving Range. Toptracer players will be able to virtually play the full 18 holes or can opt to play just the front nine or back nine, the Par 3 holes, or custom select to play as little or as many holes they wish. The Brabazon can also be played within game modes including Approach Shot Challenge and the Driving Challenge.
Chris Reeve, Director of Golf at The Belfry said: “We are very excited that the Brabazon is now available to play on Toptracer. Players from all around the world will now have the opportunity to navigate the Brabazon’s numerous lakes, streams, and bunkers and attempt to recreate some of the iconic Ryder Cup shots themselves.”
