Golf hotels offer more than a hotel near a golf course. They offer an entire golf vacation packaged into one hotel. From your first tee time to your last cocktail of the night, the hotel can provide everything you need.

ToggleRolling countryside – as found in the Cotswolds – can create some very testing golf courses. The natural ups and downs in elevation combined with the mature trees found on many older courses can create some very difficult shots. Before booking a Golf Hotel it’s worth checking the Standard Scratch Score of the course. This is the score that England Golf uses to measure the difficulty of a course for a scratch golfer. This will give you an indication of whether the course will be suitable for your ability.
Most golf hotels offer a stay-and-play package, a pre-set price for your holiday that includes your room, breakfast and a set number of rounds of golf. This is usually cheaper than booking each component separately and it saves a lot of time and hassle, as all your tee times are arranged for you. Be sure to check if the hotel offers a special price for weekend breaks or if the number of rounds is restricted to midweek.
A Golf Hotel Cotswolds option to prioritise is a hotel with a resident PGA professional and a full practice facility. This allows guests to have lessons, get their clubs fitted, have a game analysed or even just have a short session of tuition to improve their game before heading out onto the course. Many hotels now include a short hour of tuition in a package, rather than charging for it as extra.
Make sure that the practice facilities are of a good quality and include a driving range, putting green and short game area. You can then warm up before a round and work on your weaknesses after a round. If you are looking for Golf Hotel Cotswolds, see https://tewkesburypark.co.uk/golf/.
Not everyone in your party may be keen to play 18 holes of golf every day. The Hotel must have facilities to cater for the non-golfers – a spa, swimming pool or perhaps a short walk into a historic and beautiful Cotswolds village, such as Tewkesbury.
A little research will find your perfect hotel.
