Why play here?

The strongest conventional test near Cheltenham

Cotswold Hills is the natural choice when you want a demanding, well-established parkland round rather than the exposed common-land character of Cleeve Hill. The course sits in rolling countryside at Ullenwood and offers multiple tee positions, so the challenge can be matched to the golfer rather than treated as one fixed championship test.

Choose Cotswold Hills if: you want strategic parkland, a stronger championship feel and a course that pairs naturally with a Cheltenham-based short break.

Who it suits

Low and mid handicaps

Course management, positioning and approach play matter throughout, making it a satisfying anchor round.

Visitor golf

The club actively welcomes visitors and promotes year-round golf, making it easier to build into a real itinerary.

Cheltenham weekends

Combine with Cleeve Hill or Lilley Brook for three very different local playing styles.

Build the wider journey

Have you considered?

Cleeve Hill

Choose it for Old Tom Morris heritage, exposed common-land golf and a wilder sense of place.

Lilley Brook

Choose it for a traditional Cheltenham members-club round closer to the town centre.

Brickhampton Court

Choose it when mixed abilities, practice facilities and course choice matter more than championship pedigree.

Year-round visitor golf at Ullenwood

Cotswold Hills continues to welcome visitors and publishes current visitor green fees. Its multiple teeing options make it suitable for a wider range of handicaps than the championship label alone might suggest, while the Ullenwood location keeps the course practical for Cheltenham-based stays.
