The Scholsey Golf Cabin
Case Study
The Brief
Manchester United legend and footballing icon Paul Scholes approached Tekden in search of a private golf retreatโsomewhere he could practice his game, relax with friends, and enjoy the sport away from the spotlight. The space needed to be stylish, practical, and high-performing, all while fitting seamlessly into his property and lifestyle.
Paul wanted more than just a simulatorโhe envisioned a space that felt like a true escape. It needed to be usable all year round, comfortable, and fully equipped to host a few friends for a round (or two) and a drink afterward.
The Solution
Tekden designed and delivered “The Scholsey”, a custom 6.6m x 4.5m luxury log cabin tailored specifically to Paulโs vision. Built with high-grade insulation and durable finishes, the cabin was made to be enjoyed all year roundโrain or shine.
Inside, a professional-grade golf simulator was installed with precision, complete with synthetic turf flooring, premium screen and projector, and integrated lighting for immersive play. But what made this project extra special was the bespoke handcrafted bar and fridge unit, designed and built on-site to create a welcoming, personal touch. This space wasn’t just about practiceโit was about enjoyment.
The interior strikes a perfect balance between functionality and style, delivering a private sports lounge feel thatโs as perfect for practicing a backswing as it is for watching the big game with mates.
The Result
In just five days, the Tekden team completed the full log cabin build and simulator installationโright on time for Paul to tee off that Friday. The outcome? A flawless, fully tailored golf retreat that met every requirement and exceeded expectations.
“The Scholsey” has quickly become a highlight in Tekdenโs portfolio, not just because of the client, but because of the detail, quality, and personality poured into every part of the project. For Paul, itโs the ideal space to unwind, practice, and entertainโproving once again that Tekden cabins are more than structuresโtheyโre personalised lifestyle spaces built with purpose.
