Cottrell Resort offers two experienced PGA Golf Professionals, Gareth Bennett and Simon Cox.
Both Pros, offer individual and group lessons either in the Golf academy or on-course.
The magnificent Button Gwinnett Course with its rolling views of the Vale, is a little gem. Based more on an American design with a number of water features spread over the 18 holes, this course offers challenges for all categories of golfers. A fantastic finishing hole awaits you in full view of our Clubhouse.
The course is named after a former resident and one of the fifty-six men to sign the Declaration of Independence in 1776, cementing his title as one of America’s immortals. His unusual forename was a homage to his uncle Sir Thomas Button, a naval explorer most famous for charting the American northwest coast.
The Mackintosh course offers a completely different golf challenge to the Button Gwinnett and is designed around the original features of the historic parkland trees. The course again boasts some water features, with several doglegs and finishes with a strong Par 4 18th hole. To have two different courses on the same resort is unique.
The course gets its name from past Cottrell resident, Alfred Donald Mackintosh of Mackintosh the 28th Chief of Clan Mackintosh and Chief of Clan Chattan. Living at Cottrell until his death in 1938, Mackintosh made his Welsh seat a centre of lavish entertainment and social gatherings.
Our golfing facilities at our Resort in South Wales truly make us stand out from the crowd. Whatever your level of skill and experience, our courses have something to offer you, and both set within unrivalled scenery in the picturesque Vale of Glamorgan, just outside Cardiff (South Wales).
Our professional golf facilities include our 2 championship designed golf courses, 3 state-of-the-art GC Hawk's sport simulators, an indoor & outdoor putting green, chipping green, on-course practice area, optimal swing clinic and an academy area.
