Accommodation

THE HOLLY INN

Pinehurst’s very first hotel, The Holly Inn has welcomed guests since 1895. It is situated in the heart of the Village, offering easy access to everything just steps from its iconic striped entrance.

The architecture here is part Queen Anne revival and part Arts & Crafts, but the overall effect is pure Pinehurst. Fine touches adorn every guest room, from the Tiffany lamps illuminating the space to the antique bar that once dwelled in Scotland but now welcomes thirsty patrons in our Tavern. You can also visit the pool for a more intimate, quiet space for sunning and relaxing.

This truly unique property has engendered much affection over its century-plus lifespan, and we’re sure you’ll love it as well.

THE MANOR

A year-long renovation completed in 2019 has transformed the historic Manor, originally opened in 1923, into a contemporary hotel wrapped in classic charm.

Beyond the communal lobby lie well-appointed guest rooms waiting to immerse guests in comfort, as well as two private hospitality suites that can be reserved for golf groups of up to 20 and make an ideal place to celebrate a successful round on one of our courses.

The North & South Bar offers a wide selection of fine whiskeys and cocktails, while just outside, Pinehurst Brewing Co. pours craft beer brewed on site. The Village of Pinehurst is also just a short walk away, making The Manor as convenient as it is memorable.

THE CAROLINA HOTEL

For over a century, the “Queen of the South” has welcomed guests to Pinehurst. Come stroll across the hotel’s spacious verandas and into one of 230 Four-Diamond rooms and suites which, along with its grand lobby, have been newly renovated. The Carolina Dining Room, home to the best breakfast in golf, continues to tempt the palate of every guest, while the new Coffee House located in the lobby serves up quick bites and freshly brewed java. This cornerstone of Pinehurst also offers a heated pool complex, putting green on its West Lawn and two retail outlets for your shopping needs.

Some say you can feel the spirit of Pinehurst as you turn onto Carolina Vista Drive, and that spirit continues to grow thanks to the continued improvement of the Carolina Hotel.

Parking & Shuttles

Once you’ve gotten to Pinehurst, you’ll find that getting settled and getting around are both simple and convenient. Parking is plentiful, and many find that once they’ve parked their vehicle…that’s where it stays until it’s time to depart. A fleet of on-call shuttles waits to shuffle you off to wherever it is you’d like to go, servicing all of Pinehurst’s facilities. Pick-up time averages just 15 minutes, so call ahead and by the time you’ve paid your check at one of our restaurants or come downstairs from your room, we’ll be waiting to take you anywhere you’d like to go.

Please note that ride share options such as Uber and Lyft are extremely limited in the Pinehurst area.

Guests arriving at The Carolina Hotel may park in the adjacent lot to the hotel, with Valet Parking available. The Manor and Holly Inn have lots adjacent to each property. In the event that spaces are not available, guests may park in the lot located at the Resort Clubhouse and utilize our complimentary shuttle service.

Format and Handicaps

Format: The scoring format each day will be individual Stableford.

Handicaps: Playing Handicap will be set at 95% of Course Handicap. The maximum Playing Handicaps are 24 for men and 30 for ladies. If your handicap exceeds these limits, you can still play, but for competition purposes, you’ll play off these limits.

All five rounds will be run under the World Handicap System (WHS). Scores will not automatically be forwarded to England Golf.  Participants MUST return their daily scores to their golf club. The easiest way to do this is to forward the email from Golf Genius, which will be received after each round, and provides details of your scores.

GAGT Overseas Handicap System (OHA):  Handicaps will be adjusted after each round in line with the GAGT OHA system. The GAGT OHA system is based on the CONGU handicap system prior to the introduction of WHS. Adjustments made by the GAGT OHA system will not affect your club Handicap Index.

The GAGT OHA system takes precedence over adjustments made by a player’s home club to ensure consistency. Details of the GAGT OHA system can be provided upon request.

Daily Draw:  The draw for the first two rounds will be available on the website a week before the event.

Draws for the last two rounds will be made in score order.

In the fourth round, the leaders will go out first.

In the last round, the leaders will go out last.

Participants can use the message facility in their Locker/Account for requests such as playing partners and early or late tee times. The organisers will do their best to accommodate these requests.
