Thorpeness Golf Club and Hotel - A 3-star golf hotel with an award-winning 18-hole course, lakeside dining, and family-friendly amenities

Overlooking Thorpeness Golf Course, Thorpeness Golf Club and Hotel features first-floor bedrooms with views of the putting green and fairways, offering king-size beds that can convert to twin configurations. Guests can dine at Ogilvie's 'Tee View' restaurant, serving Grill House classics, or Braid's Bar, where light meals and afternoon tea are available. The 6311-yard par 70 James Braid Course hosts professional tournaments, while Jiggers miniature golf and the Meare Garden cater to non-golfers. Located 3 km from Aldeburgh Beach, the hotel provides easy access to Suffolk's coastal attractions. Dogs are welcome in Braid's Bar and select rooms. Unlimited golf, a 3-course dinner, and breakfast are included in golf break packages.

Pros

The 18-hole James Braid Course is playable year-round due to quick-draining sandy soil.

Ogilvie's restaurant offers panoramic views of the golf course and locally sourced Suffolk ingredients.

Family-friendly with Jiggers miniature golf and proximity to Aldeburgh Beach.

Pet-friendly accommodations and dining options available.

Cons

The hotel lacks a spa or swimming pool.

Some rooms require steps for access, limiting mobility-friendly options.

“This golfing hotel charms with its friendly staff and views over Thorpeness Mere. I especially appreciate the comfortable beds and excellent breakfast. It's a great value, and though not overtly luxurious, its charm and character make it a place I'd happily revisit.”
