Cottingham parks -007810

Cottingham Parks enjoys an excellent reputation as a popular destination for all types of groups.  Opened in 1994, the 18 hole par 72 course makes good use of the existing trees enhanced by landscaping and many man made water features.

The signature hole, the 12th, is not the longest hole on the course, measuring just 346 yards, but it has seen the end of many promising medal cards. Water on the right hand side of the fairway demands an accurate tee shot, leaving an equally demanding approach over bunkers with more water to the right of the green, while out of bounds to the left catches anyone trying to play “safe”.

The modern spacious clubhouse with balcony overlooks the 1st tee and 18th green. It offers the perfect surrounding to relax with a pint and carrying out the inevitable post mortem. It is the ideal location for enjoying a golf break, day out or corporate day.

Skidby Lakes-007101

Following its addition to the Cottingham Leisure Limited portfolio in 2008, the Skidby Lakes course has been re-designed to enhance the enjoyment of all those who play the course. Given the relative short yardage for a modern day course it should not be under estimated. The introduction of several dog legs have added to the interest and the demands on your course management, while the small sometimes tricky greens will test your putting ability. As its name would suggest, water is the main feature of the course, coming into play on no less than seven holes and is further enhanced by a recent major tree planting programme

The 10th hole is the signature hole. Measuring 363 yards, the fairway slopes from left to right towards the stream that runs through the course. The further left you go, ‘the safe tee shot’, the more you have to play your 2nd shot over the water to an elevated green.

Following the re-development, Skidby is now open to Visiting Parties and to complete the package Cottingham Leisure, in conjunction with The local Mercure Hotel, offer golf breaks starting from just £89 pp
