The Belfry is a golf resort and hotel in Wishaw, Warwickshire, close to Sutton Coldfield, England, located approximately 8 miles from the centre of Birmingham. It was acquired by KSL Capital Partners in August 2012.
The resort has three golf courses. The Brabazon Course is the main tournament course, and the others are the PGA National and The Derby. The headquarters of The Professional Golfers' Association are also located there, along with a 4-star hotel, tennis courts and a leisure spa.
The Belfry has hosted the Ryder Cup on four occasions and has staged numerous European Tour events.
In 2013, The Belfry underwent a comprehensive £26 million renovation of all bedrooms, meeting rooms, public spaces and other amenities. There was also a general uplift on the whole grounds appearance, including a new lobby entrance. The hotel remained open during the renovations and they were successfully completed. Further work has since been undertaken to improve other areas of the resort, including the spa. Sam's Bar, named after Scottish golfer and 2002 Ryder Cup Captain Sam Torrance, was also refurbished and renamed to Sam's Club House.
In 2024, work started on an £80 million expansion and renovation project at The Belfry involving the creation of additional rooms, a new leisure club and events space.[1] The Masters Suite will also be created as part of the development.[2] The project is due to be completed in autumn 2025 and the redevelopment has been on the agenda since Goldman Sachs Asset Management and Cedar Capital Partners bought the resort in 2021.[3]
The Belfry has won a number of awards including:
The Belfry has hosted the Ryder Cup four times, which is more than any other venue in the world.[6]
