Forest Hill Golf Club in Leicestershire has been put up for sale for £4.5m+ by the administrators.
Simon Carvill-Biggs and John Lowe, restructuring partners at FRP Advisory Trading, and joint administrators of Forest Hill Golf Club Limited, have instructed Savills and HMH Golf & Leisure to market the 119-acre freehold property, which will continue to trade throughout the sale process.
Located approximately eight miles west of Leicester, Forest Hill Golf Club comprises an 18-hole, 6,513-yard championship golf course, a 21-bay floodlit Trackman driving range, a modern clubhouse with restaurant, bar, gym, fitness studio and golf simulator facilities, and the recently opened Anaconda Falls adventure golf course.
The property also includes extensive parking and a site identified for a proposed 49-bedroom hotel, subject to planning.
Carvill-Biggs said: “Since our appointment on 26 June 2026, we have assumed responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the club and are pleased to confirm that trading has continued seamlessly throughout this period, with no disruption to members, guests, or visitors. The joint administrators’ objective is to secure a sale of the club as a going concern, preserving the business and its facilities for the future.
“We have worked closely with licensed solutions and the on-site team to maintain and enhance the member experience, identifying prior failures and ensuring that the club is operated to the high standards members have come to expect. We remain fully supportive of the existing membership base and look forward to welcoming both new members and visitors to the club.”
Justine Morris, associate director in the leisure and trading team at Savills, added: “Opportunities to acquire an operational golf and leisure business of this scale, combined with such a diverse range of revenue streams, are rare. Forest Hill Golf Club benefits from a strong regional catchment, significant recent investment and clear opportunities for future growth, making it an attractive proposition for a wide range of buyers.”
Ben Allen, consultant at HMH, said: “Forest Hill Golf Course offers all the key components of a commercial golf facility. The property has benefitted from recent significant capital investment, which included the full refurbishment of the floodlit golf range, a full clubhouse refurbishment adding a new simulator/games suite and a new gym, as well as with a new adventure golf course. Following historic management and financing challenges, the business has now been stabilised and offers significant scope for commercialisation”
