Adventure golf and wedding marquee planned for Guys Thatched Hamlet

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 10 Oct, 11:43 · Archive

A planning application has been submitted for an 18-hole adventure golf course and wedding marquee at Guys Thatched Hamlet in Bilsborrow.

A planning application has been submitted to build an 18-hole adventure golf course and a summer wedding marquee behind Guys Thatched Hamlet at Bilsborrow. RIBA Chartered Practice submitted the application on behalf of James' Place, a hospitality business that acquired The Thatched Hamlet in March 2026 following the previous ownership's administration, adding it to their portfolio of wedding venues.

In its planning statement, James' Place said it recognised the investment required and the opportunity to secure the future of the venue. The company stated that the thatched buildings, canal-side setting and informal atmosphere give the venue a distinctive identity, and that for many customers it holds memories of family visits, celebrations and time spent beside the canal.

James' Place said its ambition is to retain that familiarity and character while improving the condition, quality and range of facilities. The statement noted that 'Owd Nell's, the existing pub, remains central to this, providing everyday connection with local customers and visitors as a welcoming place for a drink, meal and relaxed visit.
