Albert Hockey, Peter’s step-grandfather, remodelled his first course in 1920. Don Harradine, Peter’s father, designed his first layout in 1929 and pursued an illustrious career until his retirement in the late 1980s. Peter Harradine represents the third generation of golf course architects.
Harradine Golf’s services include: general zoning plans and golf course layouts that are always elaborated considering environmental, ecological and commercial sustainability; 3D visualisations and fly-throughs; tender documents; detailed designs; construction drawings; specifications; construction permits; bills of quantities; and budget pricing for new layouts and/or upgrading of existing courses including supervision of construction and maintenance.
Harradine Golf has designed, constructed, remodelled and/or supervised the construction of over 200 golf courses in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. These courses are situated in every type of terrain from arid, rocky, dry, hot and saline deserts, to wet, humid, temperate and cold grasslands, wetlands, swamps, mountains, waste tips, agricultural fields, sea-sides, and even at altitudes of 1,850 metres.
Harradine Golf always finds sustainable ecological solutions, but its layouts should be courses for golfers and not unplayable monuments to ecology. The integration of a golf course within a site is like a heart transplant – the site must not reject it.
