Ep 10: Close House – Owner Sir Graham Wylie discusses developing a golf facility

  • サマリー

  • Sir Graham Wylie is a successful self-made businessman with a background in software development who had a dream to develop a golf facility in his home town of Newcastle, England. In 2004 the first steps were taken to secure Close House – an old estate some four miles from Newcastle on the banks of the River Tyne. The property featured a deteriorating mansion house first built in 1779, and was in the ownership of Newcastle University. Sir Graham bought the property, retained land for the use of the university sports teams, and then set about buying additional land to develop a new course known as the Colt Course – a top 100 golf course that opened in May 2011 and went on to host the 2017 and 2020 British Masters. Represented on the world stage by touring professional Lee Westwood, Close House is now a 45-hole facility with a modern clubhouse, full length driving range, on-site accommodation, a thriving membership. Hear now how Close House was developed by an owner passionate about creating a first-class golf facility.
