The venue

Houghwood is a golf club, restaurant and events venue on the edge of St Helens. The site has to serve four different people at the same time: a golfer booking a tee time, somebody booking a table for dinner, a couple looking at wedding packages, and an existing member trying to log in.

That is the awkward part of a venue like this. All four want something different within a second of landing, and the club’s own line is that everyone is welcome and no membership is required, so nothing on the site can read as a closed private club.

The build

WordPress on a GeneratePress base. Book a tee, book a table and the member login each get their own button in the header rather than being buried in a menu, so none of those four visitors has to work out which part of the site belongs to them before they can do anything.

Built while at Paramount Digital, and it was the whole site rather than a share of one.
