Booking a golf hotel stay can be more than finding a great hotel near a golf course. When searching for a hotel there are many factors to consider when booking.
Course Quality and Access
First of all, you need to find out if the hotel’s own managed course or just nearby? Find out the length of the course, the par and the official difficulty rating to compare with your own ability. Also, find out if residents get preference over non-resident bookers for tee times?
Tee-Time Flexibility
Some hotels lock you into specific tee times as part of their package deals. Be sure to check whether or not you can book the tee times yourself before arrival and then adjust as needed once you arrive at your hotel. This is particularly important for golfers that are travelling with other people who play at different rates of play.
Equipment and Hire Options
Also check to consider is the equipment offered by the hotel and the hire of trolleys and buggies, plus whether there is a pro shop on site. It’s also worth checking whether the hotel has a short warm-up area or even a putting green.
Accommodation Close to the Fairways
It’s also worth considering where you’re going to sleep. It makes a huge difference if you’re able to wake up for an early start and roll out of bed and walk down to the first tee. So, if you’re looking for a Golf Hotel Cotswolds, it’s worth checking to see if the rooms are on the same grounds as the hotel as opposed to being a 10 minute walk or a 10 minute drive to the hotel.

Recovery Facilities
A full round of golf is a grueling activity that requires time to recover. A hotel with a pool, offering various spa treatments or even just a hot tub to relax in can be the perfect place for your golf holiday.
By checking these few key points before booking, you can avoid any surprise let downs and have a better all round hotel golf holiday.
