Hellidon Lakes Hotel

Hellidon Lakes Hotel is set in the heart of Northamptonshire, with lakes and rolling countryside giving the place a properly peaceful feel the moment you arrive. It's one of those Midlands golf breaks that's easy to reach from across the UK, then somehow feels like you've escaped everyday life once you're on site.

The headline is the golf, and the name gives you a fair clue what to expect. Water features influence many of the key shots here, so you'll be picking lines and clubs carefully rather than just swinging away. Get it right and it's hugely enjoyable, especially for groups who like a bit of tactical golf and a course that asks you to think.

Off the course, it's a true stay-and-play setup. You've got comfortable rooms, proper dining options and a bowling alley for a competitive evening when the clubs are back in the boot. For societies and mixed-ability groups, that convenience is a big plus. Fewer taxis, fewer plans, more time spent doing what you came for.

Who is this for?
Groups who want an easy-to-reach Midlands stay-and-play resort with a course shaped by water, plus enough extras to keep the evenings sorted without leaving the property.

Who is it best for?
Societies and mid-handicappers who enjoy plotting their way round, and anyone who values convenience, decent dining and a no-faff setup in Northamptonshire.

Hellidon Lakes

The predominant feature is water, as the course's name suggests, with no fewer than 16 lakes placed strategically to attract wayward golf balls. The 220-acre landscape that is the backdrop to the golf course is in fact a nature reserve, and the wildlife and stunning panorama only serve to embellish the golfing experience. The course is fortunate to feature a cutting-edge irrigation system, designed to drain the greens effectively, ensuring that they roll true throughout the year.

At its longest, the golf course at Hellidon Lakes will measure over 6,100, and will challenge the better players, while the different combinations and tee markers ensure that the resort is perfect for golfers of every standard.

Accommodation at Hellidon Lakes Hotel

The hotel at Hellidon Lakes overlooks the same natural landscape that frames the golf course, and plenty of rooms make the most of the views across Northamptonshire and Warwickshire. Following a major refurbishment, the resort now offers 110 guest rooms finished in a clean, contemporary style with quality fittings throughout. The public areas follow the same look and feel, so it works well as a base for a one-night dash or a longer golf weekend.

If you're celebrating, it's worth looking at one of the four suites. You'll get more space and a bit more of that golf trip upgrade feel, ideal for couples, captains' weekends or anyone who wants the best room in the group chat. The views from these rooms take things up a level, giving you a proper sense of occasion alongside the practical comforts you'd expect from a well-run golf resort.

Food and drink are kept straightforward, which is exactly what most golf groups want. The Lakes Brasserie is the main spot for a proper meal after your round and it's backed by an extensive wine list. If you're in the mood for something more relaxed, The Terrace serves bistro-style bites and drinks, handy if your tee time has you finishing at different times or you just fancy a pint while you replay the day's highlights.

And if your group likes to keep the competition going, the bowling alley is a great extra. It's become a popular post-golf option for societies looking to extend the evening without heading off-site, and it's an easy win when you want something to do that doesn't involve finding taxis or making reservations elsewhere.

The resort setup means you're not hunting around for dinner spots or entertainment. It's all here, which lets you focus entirely on your game and your group. The views from the rooms remind you why you're here, the facilities keep everyone happy, and the whole package delivers what a Midlands golf break should: quality golf, comfortable surroundings and no need to leave the resort unless you fancy it.

Only marked the hotel down as the golf lounge and bar were both closed, undergoing redecoration at the time of our stay. The only moan is that we were not told about this when booking.

Being a main holiday time i.e Easter, we were surprised how quiet it was. Overall it was ok, however, dinner on our first night was a little frustrating as the service was a bit disjointed. For example we had to ask ref what our subsidised amount was and it was like an after thought, that should be an initial brief? Bread rolls had to be asked for and weren’t presented on initial sit down, that took over 20 mins to arrive and didn’t come with our starters when we really could have required them. Starter plates weren’t cleared prior to our mains arriving which is pretty sloppy in our opinion. At times we thought we were in Farley Towers! Evening 2 was more cohesive and like to thank Oli our waiter for his service and courtesy throughout.

The hotel is around 20 mins away from the motorway. All of our rooms were clean and tidy. They were all very hot though, so we slept with the windows open. Lovely views over the local countryside and the golf course. All the food we had in the evening was delicious, the only exception being the cheesecake. Breakfast was super, lots of choice and all decent quality. Staff were friendly throughout our stay.

Hotel was comfortable with very good facilities, the rooms allocated to golfers are in the old section and are a bit dated. The bar prices are way to high. Breakfast and dinner was a very good quality but but dinner portion sizes were to small.
