About The Carnegie Abbey Club
The Carnegie Abbey Club is one of the finest private golf clubs in the nation. Situated in Portsmouth, overlooking Narragansett Bay and idyllic pastoral farmland, its blend of bucolic surroundings makes The Carnegie Abbey Club a unique and intriguing experience.
The centerpiece of The Club is its waterfront golf course which represents a transplant of traditional golfing values from Scotland - birthplace of the royal and ancient game - to Portsmouth. Designed by one of the great names in modern golf course architecture, Donald Steel, the course boasts traditional Scottish-style revetted sod bunkers, few in number but strategically placed for maximum impact on play.
The Club also offers members the unique ability to live within its gated grounds. In Carnegie Village, the Royal Cottages are just a short jump from the Club and embrace the traditional values of a shared community. The Tower at Carnegie Abbey imitates life in the big city, but with a backdrop of sensational water views and all the amenities of a five-star resort. The newly-opened Newport Beach Club is a private, ocean front community inspired by classic New England beach towns. Boardwalks and intimate streets weave their way along the water.
About The Newport Beach Club:
The Newport Beach Club is a classic New England seaside village being constructed on 150 acres of pristine waterfront facing Narragansett Bay on Aquidneck Island. Residents will enjoy amenities including: an Olympic-style equestrian riding facility; a championship tennis facility with two heated paddle tennis courts; sport fishing slips that can accommodate yachts up to 120 feet; and a private beach club that includes 30 private landscaped areas to relax, 24 beach-style cabanas, a five-lane lap pool, direct beach-front pool with swim-up bar, kids' wading pool and play area, and a fire pit; all complemented by full-service Newport Beach Club staff.
The Newport Beach Club joins The Carnegie Abbey Club as the first comprehensive sporting estate communities of their kind designed and constructed on the east coast.
