Macdonald Hotels
Elite Golf Academies and Linden Hall: A Winning Partnership
Creating Excellence Together
We’re thrilled to announce our dynamic collaboration with Linden Hall, fueled by both Macdonald Hotels and Elite Golf Academies. As Macdonald Hotels continues its substantial investment in the Northumberland venue, we’re joining forces to revolutionize practice and coaching facilities.
What’s New?
- Fully Refurbished Driving Range: Thanks to joint investment, our driving range has undergone a complete transformation. Expect a fresh look, enhanced functionality, and thousands of TaylorMade range balls.
- Trackman Studios: Working closely with the Elite team, led by our very own Steve Bainbridge, we’ve established two cutting-edge Trackman studios. And that’s just the beginning—we’re expanding to three teaching and custom fitting bays this year.
- Short Game Excellence: Our commitment extends beyond the long game. We’ve revamped the short game practice area, ensuring a comprehensive experience for golfers of all levels.
Our Vision
Together with Macdonald and the Linden team, we’re aiming high. Our shared goal? To create the premier practice and golf course facility in the North East of England. From juniors to seasoned players, we’re here to elevate your game.
Junior Development
Our junior membership at Linden has already grown to 37 players—and counting. These young talents will be part of our exclusive junior development pathway, alongside any newcomers this summer. The future of golf starts here.
Jeff Mills, Macdonald’s National Golf Sales Director, Shares His Thoughts:
“Our new partnership with Elite Golf Academies will transform the coaching and practice offering at Linden Hall, creating one of the best facilities of its kind in the region. To be able to work with Elite on this project has been fantastic, and I know Steve and the team will bring a great deal to Linden Hall—both in terms of coaching and beyond that to areas like junior development and enhancing our golf day experience.”
