Best Western Ullesthorpe
The fantastic 18-hole championship golf course at Best Western Ullesthorpe Court Hotel and Golf offers golfers the chance to enjoy a peaceful round at a stunning and challenging course situated in this remote area of Leicestershire.
The golf course is situated in a secluded spot of beautiful Leicestershire countryside and gives you the opportunity to lose yourself within tree-lined, lush fairways or rural Leicestershire. This interesting course, set amongst beautiful scenery can pose a challenge to golfers of all abilities due to its numerous water hazards, heavily defended drives and penal rough which can make this a difficult course despite the fact that it isn’t the longest at just over 6,700 yards and boasts fairly wide fairways. The course offers golfers a great variety in terms of the holes being of different lengths, styles and difficulty which makes this an interesting round of golf. Ullesthorpe is demanding in length but there are many tee shots that do allow you to open your shoulders a little, but you must make an accurate 2nd shot in order to score well. With beautiful scenery, an interesting championship layout as well as some superb holes that you will remember for long after you putt at the 18th.

Arguably, the most impressive hole on the course is the par 3 9th hole which stretches to just 181 yards and boasts the disused railway line which acts as a raised tee from which you can look down onto this short and challenging hole. The 9th hole boasts many different hazards including a pond which you have to navigate your way around in order to reach the green.
Another incredible hole is the 18th which is an excellent closing hole which gently sweeps from right to left before concluding your round with an approach shot which you must carry over a river in order to reach the tiered green.
