CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va – Keswick Hall – the acclaimed 600-acre luxury resort set in Virginia’s scenic Wine Country – has been honored with the prestigious Golf Digest Editors’ Choice Award for “Best Golf Resorts in the Americas” for the sixth consecutive year.
With its annual Editors’ Choice Awards, Golf Digest celebrates the “best of the best” golf destinations as well as more than 30 additional industry categories. Keswick Hall was one of only seven resorts listed in the Mid-Atlantic section and joins the highest echelon of resorts across North America including Pebble Beach Resorts, The American Club, Streamsong Golf Resort & Spa, and Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.
Keswick Hall continues to receive accolade after accolade from top publications, especially for its celebrated Pete Dye-designed golf course, Full Cry. The exceptional layout sits at No. 4 in Golfweek’s “Best Courses You Can Play” in Virginia and is No. 49 in the publication’s “Top 100 Resort Courses in the U.S.” Upon opening in late 2014 to rave reviews, Full Cry was named one of Golf Digest’s “Best New Courses” in the U.S.
The elite luxury destination is currently in the final stages of a comprehensive hotel and amenities renovation headed by owners Molly and Robert Hardie in conjunction with global design firm Hart Howerton. Due to open this summer, the results will showcase the integrity of the original elegant structure and provide an even more luxurious and modern setting for Keswick Hall’s guests to savor a true world-class experience.
The impressive renovation highlights include an increase in the number of guest rooms from 48 to 80, dramatic new horizon pool, and inspiring food and beverage outlets under the direction of acclaimed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten who will oversee the property’s culinary operations. Work on a luxurious new spa is additionally underway.
“We are once again thrilled to be honored by such a prestigious publication as Golf Digest,” says Robert Hardie. “These tremendous accolades combined with the upcoming unveiling of our extraordinary renovation will secure our position in the highest echelon of golf resort destinations in North America.”
