Cotswold Downs Golf and Lifestyle Estate has established itself as the benchmark gated estate in the Upper Highway area, and is unquestionably one of KZN's finest residential estates, with a plethora of lifestyle and family-focused onsite features.

The exquisite 18-hole Championship trademark golf course, constructed by South Africa's famous golf course designer, Peter Matkovich, is now a thriving hive of daily and weekend activity, hosting many a golf day and tournament. With its lush fairways and greens and the distinction of KZN's finest manicured golf course, the golf course truly is a breathtaking spectacle with immaculate woodland and streams to grab the eye while you enjoy a game on the estate.

The restaurant of the onsite Lifestyle & Leisure Centre is operated by the well-known team of Guy Cluver and Chris Black of Bellevue Cafe and Lupa fame. Additional onsite amenities include two tennis courts, two cricket nets, a squash court, a functioning gym with a cardio section, children's parks with jungle gyms and swings, and a large swimming pool with a separate kiddie pool. There is a 10km running and cycling track as well as a 5km nature trail through the beautiful trees. The Nqutu River runs through the Estate, and the natural wetlands and ponds attract a wide range of wildlife, making for world-class bird viewing.

The Estate is in close proximity to some of the greatest private and public schools in the country, including Kearsney College, Curro Primary and Secondary Schools, Thomas More, St Mary's, Highbury Prep, Kloof, and Hillcrest Primary and Secondary Schools.
