What guests think

Travellers describe Thorpeness Golf Club and Hotel as a peaceful base near the beach and lake, with friendly staff, spacious comfortable rooms, good value for money, and relaxing views with plenty of outdoor spaces.

The on-site golf scene and a sociable bar add to the appeal for leisure stays. However, some areas feel dated, with occasional bathroom and maintenance issues, mixed Wi-Fi, and one or two parking challenges. Dining feedback is mostly positive, though breakfast service can be slow and a few found dinner underwhelming or overpriced. Expect a comfortable, quiet stay in a scenic coastal location.

It was a great way to start the weekend. We were joined by 14 others the next day for a weekend of golf. Although didn’t help the golf. This is the best course to play in winter months. Guaranteed to be firm underfoot.

My sister in law and I really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were all extremely friendly especially Keeley who went above and beyond to ensure that we were provided with all we needed as my sister in law was recovering from knee surgery. The hotel is very quiet and relaxing with lovely views and plenty of spaces to sit outside. The rooms were rather tired but very clean and comfortable. Although the standard rooms are stated as being on the ground floor, they are not accessible as the building is built into a hill so in theory you enter on the 1st floor and go downstairs to the ground floor The breakfast was nice with a good cook to order selection. Service was rather on the slow side possibly because golfers were often being served in the bar at the same time. Other thing to note Expedia state checkout is 11am when in fact it is 10am. All in all my sister in law and I had a lovely relaxing time here and would definitely return again. We highly recommend this lovely gem of a place.

We had a bit of a disasterous stay. We couldn’t close the French windows as the frames were swollen and didn’t fit. When we got back from our meal and walk the room had quite a few flying insects on the wall and this number just increased and increased. We called facilities who came and said we needed to be moved to a different hotel. They offered to take us there if we’d had a drink, but we were fine so moved to a hotel in aldburgh.
