CLUBHOUSE BUILT FOR COMFORT

Considered ‘the most luxurious dog house in the world’ when it was built in 1787, The Kennels was commissioned by the third Duke of Richmond. He tasked architect James Wyatt with creating the most magnificent kennels ever seen. Renowned for spending far more time and money on his hounds than on his friends and guests, he even had central heating installed in his kennels a hundred years before it was installed in Goodwood House.

I would like to compliment you on the uniquely tranquil, relaxed and subtly luxurious atmosphere that you have created. It is a joy to share its beauty with family, friends and business partners.
