Cottrell Park is a majestic setting for golf and is home to two championship-length 18-hole courses.

Both the Mackintosh and the Button Gwinnett are situated in historic parkland with views across the Brecon Beacons to the Mendips over the Bristol Channel.

Each course offers a different challenge to all standards of golfer. The Mackintosh is a woodland-parkland with an abundance of beautiful 300-year-old trees, amazing views and USGA-spec greens.
