Golf courses
36 holes on the Cromwell and Abbotsley, two pleasantly undulating parkland golf courses with several water features.
The Abbotsley Golf Resort offers two well-conditioned parkland golf courses, which offer stunning views over the Cambridgeshire countryside and provide a test for golfers of all abilities.
Abbotsley Course (Abbotsley Hotel, Golf & Country Club)
At 6,321-yards, the par 72 Abbotsley Golf Course is the more challenging of the two rounds on offer. With meandering fairways that play through occasionally tight and wooded areas and around strategically placed water features, The Abbotsley Golf Course has built a reputation as being one of the best in the area and having great playing conditions.

Cromwell Course (Abbotsley Hotel, Golf & Country Club)
With the same high standards of conditioning as the Abbotsley golf course maintained, The Cromwell course offers a more gentle but still demanding test, and is the ideal golf course for all standards of players staying at the Abbotsley Hotel. Despite being shorter at 6,087-yards, the Cromwell Course is perfect for beginners, and ideal for more advanced players as a tricky prerequisite before taking on the Abbotsley Course.
