Stay the Course

Two nights in a Gilded Age manor. All the golf you can play, cart included. A chef cooking brunch and dinner, every day. One reservation, and the whole escape is handled.

The idea

Your own country club,
for a weekend

An 1880 Victorian estate and a 1904 golf course, three minutes apart in the quietest corner of the Berkshires. You take the whole house. The course, the kitchen, and the bar take care of the rest. No traffic, no tee sheets, no reservations to juggle. The stars at night are spectacular, and the quiet is almost deafening.

The Manor

The Pease Hastings House, built in 1880 by the Pease Piano family and lovingly restored. Seven working fireplaces, antiques in every room, gardens and forest trails out the door, and views from every window.

The Course

The Links at Worthington, est. 1904. Tight tree lined fairways, small sloping greens, and views across the hilltowns. Play as much as you like, every day of your stay, carts included, three minutes from the porch.

The Table

Our chef cooks for your party alone: a proper brunch each morning and a fine dinner each night, built from seasonal, mostly local ingredients. Handcrafted cocktails and a small, superb wine list follow you from course to fireside.

How the weekend runs

Arrive on Friday.
Surrender by Saturday.

Friday, 4 PM

The house is yours

Keys, a lit fire, and cocktails in the parlor. Walk the gardens before dinner, or get nine holes in while the light lasts. Dinner is served in the dining room at the center of the house, with stone porches on either side letting the evening drift in.

Saturday

Golf until you're happy

Brunch first; the chef insists. Then the course is yours all day, carts ready, no one pressing behind you. Afternoon options for the non golfers: forest trails, garden reading, a nap by a fireplace built the same decade as the course. Cocktail hour, then dinner, then stars you forgot existed.

Sunday

One more round

Brunch, a final loop around the ten, and a slow goodbye. Checkout has a way of running late here; we understand completely.

Two night minimum, whole house reservations only. Longer stays, midweek retreats, and custom itineraries arranged gladly.

Who books the course

Occasions worth leaving town for

Golf getaways

Foursomes and friend groups who want unlimited golf, real cooking, and a house instead of a hotel hallway.

Corporate retreats

A private estate that focuses a team the way no conference room can. Meet on the porch, play in the afternoon, plan over dinner. The quiet does half the work.

Celebration weekends

Bachelor parties, milestone birthdays, reunions. The whole property to yourselves, the bar stocked, and nobody to shush you but the owls.

Private tournaments

Your own event on our ten holes: shotgun start, scoring, prizes, dinner service after. The course, the trophies, and the tall tales, all in one place.

"Incredibly conscientious folks, including a home cooked meal that surpassed any engagement I can think of going back many years. They went out of their way to take care of us down to every detail." Jon Pousette‑Dart, recording artist and guest of the club
The setting

Remote is the point

Worthington sits high in the Berkshire hilltowns of Western Massachusetts, two and a half hours from Boston and three from New York. The grounds are kept pesticide and herbicide free, the orchards and perennial gardens have been tended for thirty years, and the nearest noise is a wood thrush. Come see what your grandparents meant by a proper weekend.
