Batchworth Hertfordshire hotels:

This eighteenth century mansion was designed by Sir James Thornhill. It is called Moor Park Mansion because it is in the old park of the Manor of More. Cardinal Wolsey is often wrongly associated with Moor Park. His actual residence was situated in the valley and is the place were the famous treaty of More was signed with France in 1525. In the early 17th century, Edward, 3rd Earl of Bedford, was the first to build a new house in the park. After changing hands many times, Moor Park was sold to the Earl of Pembroke in 1627. The property was then split into the Manor of More and the Park. In 1720 the Park was sold to a nouveau riche commoner Benjamin Hoskyns Styles. Playing golf at Moor Park will be both a memorable and an enjoyable experience. We have two fantastic courses on offer and you will find they are kept in magnificent condition by our dedicated grounds staff. The High course has hosted both professional tournaments and EGU national events and every four years we host the Carris Trophy. Both courses offer spectacular views of the mansion and the estate.
