Designed by renowned architect Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1901, Marine & Lawn's newest acquisition, Greywalls, was previously privately owned by the Weaver family since 1926. Through a close and longstanding relationship with The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers, the club that calls Muirfield home, Greywalls has always had the rare luxury of securing a handful of allocated tee times so it can offer stay and play packages on this incredibly hard to access course.

The company’s first domestic acquisition, and probably its most newsworthy, is the acquisition of twin resorts Pine Needles Lodge in Southern Pines, NC, just outside Pinehurst, the “Home of Golf in America.” These twin resorts were built in the 1920s and sit directly across the road from each other. They have long been owned by the same family and operated as two sides of the same property, with guests sharing access to food, drink, and the three golf courses.

As Ben Weprin, founder of Marine & Lawn Hotels & Resorts and CEO of AJ Capital Partners, put it in his announcement, “These acquisitions represent a pivotal milestone for Marine & Lawn. Since launching the brand in 2019, our ambition has always been to honor golf’s most legendary locales with world-class hospitality. The addition of these iconic properties—each with deep roots in golf’s history—allows us to bring that vision to life on both sides of the Atlantic.”
