Cottesmore Hotel Golf & Country Club is a convenient countryside golf resort near Crawley in West Sussex. With comfortable accommodation, 27 holes of on-site golf and extensive leisure facilities, it is particularly well suited to weekend golf breaks, mixed-ability groups and couples who want more than golf alone.

The resort offers 26 en-suite twin, double and family rooms, furnished in a relaxed country style and overlooking the courses or surrounding grounds. Guests wanting additional space can choose one of seven two-bedroom self-catering lodges. Each lodge features two bath or shower rooms, an open-plan lounge and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen and an outdoor deck.

Golfers can divide their time between two contrasting parkland layouts. The Griffin Course is the resort’s principal 18-hole challenge, where mature trees shape the fairways and water hazards influence several holes. Accurate course management is important, although its range of tees makes the layout accessible to golfers of different standards.

The nine-hole Phoenix Course provides a shorter and more forgiving alternative. With fewer hazards, it is a useful option for beginners, relaxed afternoon golf or an additional round on arrival or departure day. The resort also has a practice range, golf simulator, academy and on-site professional shop.

Away from the courses, guests have access to a health club with an indoor swimming pool, gym, Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room. Tennis and padel courts are also available, while treatments can be arranged through the beauty salon.

The Phoenix Bar & Restaurant serves seasonal favourites in an informal setting overlooking the Griffin Course. Its bar and balcony make a natural meeting place for drinks and post-round conversation.

Cottesmore’s position near the M23 and London Gatwick Airport makes it especially practical for golf groups travelling from London, southern England or overseas.
