Golf Courses at Belton Woods Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort

Lakes Course

The Lakes Course is the more established of Belton Woods' championship tracks, and represents a formidable challenge for even the better golfers that visit. As its name suggests, it is crucial to negotiate the substantial water hazards, many of which are strategically positioned at the front of the putting surfaces, demanding high-quality approach play.

The 9th hole on the Lakes Course is one of the country's longest, at 609 yards - see if you can join the exclusive club to have found the green in two blows.

Course Information

Opened for play 1991

Blue 6,853 yards SSS 73.8
Orange 6,354 yards SSS 71.2
Green 5,663 yards SSS 68.1 (M) 73.6

Woods Course

The Woods Course is Belton Woods' second championship layout, and underlines why it is regarded as one of the best golf resorts in the Midlands. The Woodside is widely regarded to be more playable for the higher handicappers, but there is no shortage of potential obstacles, coming primarily from the many lakes, which are designed to complement the natural undulations of the land itself.

Belton Woods also has a fleet of GPS golf buggies plus a 21-bay floodlit driving range with TrackMan, a flexible golf-ball tracking solution with tour-proven technology and the industry’s best Virtual Golf, Practice and Entertainment software.

Accommodation at Belton Woods Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort

475 acres of outstanding rural Lincolnshire land play host to Belton Woods' excellent hotel, where a relaxed atmosphere is combined perfectly with superb facilities to produce a top class package for a golf break in the East Midlands.

The standard of the 136 guest rooms is testament to the recent completion of a £2 million refurbishment plan, making sure that the hotel matches the quality of the golfing facilities. The Classic rooms are more than adequate, while the Ambassadors are larger and have golf course views.

For a special occasion, the opulent suites boast marble bathrooms, whirlpool baths, and a separate living area. This superb hotel, with its accommodation, facilities and service, provides everything a visitor could want from a 4-star golf break.

Food & Drink

The delightful Belton Woods Bar & Grill offers delicious meals for visitors in an utterly picturesque setting that overlooks the golf course with a large outdoor terrace area that is perfect for a drink after your round.

The Claret Jug is perfect for guests who want a casual bite during the day, a mid-morning coffee or sit back, relax and enjoy a beer in the late afternoon.

Leisure Facilities

Those in search of the action will be interested in the swimming pool, fitness centre, tennis and squash courts, in addition to the archery, clay pigeon shooting, go-karting, quad biking and more that are managed by the on-site activity company. There is a slower pace in the Serenity Spa, which offers a variety of health and beauty treatments, while the leisure centre also has a steam room, sauna, whirlpool spa and sun beds.

How to get to Belton Woods

Disappointed that the Restaurant at Belton Woods refused to give us 20% of our lunch on Sunday (despite showing them the contract that shows 20% of food & beverages) and said we should take it up with the golf shop, which we did who gave us a voucher to show at the restaurant who for the second time said it was for drinks only. The golf shop then told us that we should take it up with the Hotel Management. The Golf Shop understood our frustration and said that they would only charge us £30 for the Buggy's (which we thought was quite expensive anyway). We spoke to the Hotel Management in the evening after playing golf who gave us a card to confirm our entitlement o 20% of food, but too late for our lunch of course!!On Monday for our second round of golf the Golf Shop charged us £35 for the Buggy's with an explanation for the price increase that the greens on today's Woodside course were in better condition than Sundays Lakes Course hence the increase (no mention of the "gesture" for us not getting 20% of our lunch) Very disappointed in the Financial rip-off on a Golfers lunch and overcharges on Buggys! We are all members of a Nottinghamshire Golf Club and certainly wont be recommending Belton Woods because of this, more to be wary of overcharges!

Rooms were great, most staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough, but the sports bar staff were too busy - too short-handed perhaps. Breakfast was very good and very ample. The set dinner had 4 choices for each course, but on the two nights we were there, at least one of the main courses was disappointing and the quantities insufficient. Most of my group were happy drinking lager, but I and a few others thought the choice of only 2 draught beers was very poor - disappointed not to have any hand-pulled beers in any of the bars.

Accommodation very comfortable and clean but bars and restaurant disappointing. The hotel ran out of beer over a very busy Bank Holiday weekend! On one evening the food served up bore little resemblance to the menu. e.g. steak and ale pie was substituted with a Cornish pastie! It transpired that the kitchen had not ordered enough food and they tried to palm us off with inferior substitutes with no explanation! A very poor customer relation experience which will probably mean we will not be returning to Belton Woods. The management did try to make amends the following evening but the damage had been done. A disappointing experience.

We had a wondeful tour with our group of 32 and could not fault it in any way. The private dining room was superb and the staff looked after us very well indeed. Everyone commented how much they'd enjoyed the quality of the meals. The golf courses were all ideal for our tour representing good challenging tests in scenic surroundings. We would highly recommend it for other groups.

Greens had been hollow tined and sanded and were very different fro the Lakes— we understand this needs to be done but maybe a small refund or maybe a bottle of wine at dinner might have softened the disappointment a little. But the layout and general condition was ok for a second course.

Played on the Saturday morning, front 9 was very good, again well designed holes but not as tough as Lakes. Back 9 not as strong but enjoyable. We had a 4 ball in front who were very slow and there was no one to push them along. On Friday one of groups were asked to pick up the pace of play when is was not as slow ( now where near). Overall a really enjoyable weekend and a place I would recommend, excellent value for money.

Given the reviews I'd read beforehand I was a little disappointed with the course, somewhat tatty in places but this could have been down to recent weather. Greens had only recently been dressed too which meant we couldn't get the full Lakes experience. Also very slow, 5 hours 30 mins following 2 fourballs on buggys who had no ettiquite. Could have done with some marshalling.
