Golf Hotels in Retford, England

Golf hotels provide a play-and-stay experience for golfers. They offer lodging and convenient access to a golf course, along with all the usual facilities of a hotel. On Expedia, you can find golf hotels which have either a 9+ golf course on site, or are located adjacent to a 18+ hole golf course. In the second case, the hotel has a partnership with the golf course and provides guests with conveniences such as a transport shuttles.

What’s offered by each golf hotel is different. Often they offer equipment rentals, caddies, golf carts, and transport to a golf course. Depending on the hotel and room type, this may be included in the rate or available at a surcharge.

Some hotels offer room rates inclusive of green fees or a number of games. You can find out more information about what’s included on the specific property page on Expedia.

It’s all here. Arrange lessons, enjoy a few drinks at the ‘19th hole,’ share golfing tales over dinner—some golf resorts welcome and entertain family, too, so everyone has a vacation.
