Owston Hall Hotel

Owston Hall sits in the grounds of a 147-acre estate in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, with the A1 and M62 both close by, so it's an easy one for a quick UK golf break. The setting is classic English parkland, with mature trees, an old country-house backdrop and a terrace that looks straight over the closing hole, which is always worth a pause after your round.

The hotel has 30 en-suite bedrooms split across two parts of the property. Fifteen rooms are in the original hall, a 17th-century wing where each room has its own character. The other fifteen are in the Old Stables, a separate block that's a little more straightforward in style but still comfortable.

Food and drink is on-site in the bar and the Victorian-style conservatory restaurant, both with views across the course. In the warmer months, the terrace is a popular spot for a post-round pint while you watch groups come in on 18.

One practical note before you book: the spa and gym are currently closed for renovation and are expected to reopen later this year. If your trip is all about golf, good food and a handy location, it's a solid fit.

Who is this for?
Golfers looking for a straightforward parkland break in South Yorkshire, with easy motorway access from across the north and Midlands. It suits societies, small groups and anyone after a well-maintained championship course without the headline price tag.

Who is it best for?
Mid-to-low handicappers who enjoy tree-lined parkland golf and want a proper test that's hosted professional events. Also ideal for groups travelling from Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire or Lincolnshire who need a central, accessible base with on-site accommodation and dining.

Robin Hood Golf Course

Close to 6,000 yards at is fullest length, Owston Hall is a stern test of golf, encountering mature oak trees and treacherous water hazards. The tenth hole is the star of the course, where golfers must only travel 351 yards, but must negotiate two strategically positioned lakes.

Over the years, significant changes have been made to the golf course to offer something for everyone. A Black tee option has been added meaning golfers can take on the really long golf course, or the much shorter yardage. No matter what level of golfer you are, there is something for you at Owston Hall.

Owston Hall is a terrific example of ‘risk/reward' golf and is characteristic of the enjoyable challenges at this South Yorkshire classic.

Accommodation at Owston Hall Hotel

Owston Hall's accommodation is split across two distinct parts of the property. Fifteen rooms occupy the old wing, housed in the original 17th-century building. Each has been decorated individually to reflect the character and period detail of the hall itself, so expect exposed beams, traditional furnishings and a sense of history that's rare in modern golf hotels. If you like a bit of character and don't mind the quirks that come with an old building, the old wing is the one to ask for.

The remaining fifteen rooms are located in the Old Stables, a separate block that trades period charm for consistent comfort. The rooms here are spacious, well-appointed and finished to the same 4-star standard, but without the quirks and character of the old wing. If you prefer a more contemporary feel or simply want a ground-floor room with easy access, the Stables are a solid choice.

All 30 rooms are en-suite and the setup across both wings is reliably good. Owston Hall isn't trying to be a luxury resort, it's a comfortable, well-run golf hotel that does the basics right and leaves you free to focus on your golf.

The Victorian conservatory restaurant is the main dining space, serving modern British dishes with views straight out over the course. It's the sort of place where you can have a relaxed dinner after your round without needing to leave the estate. For something more casual, the bar and terrace are both popular spots, especially in summer when you can sit outside with a drink and watch groups finishing on the 18th. The terrace overlooks the green, so there's always something to watch and it's a natural gathering point for groups staying on-site.

One thing to note is that the spa and gym are currently closed for renovation. They're expected to reopen later this year, but for now, the focus is squarely on golf, food and comfortable rooms. If you're here for the course and the convenience of on-site accommodation, Owston Hall delivers exactly that.

Saw some less than favourable reviews — but some times these reviews say more about the complainer and you really have to go and make up your own mind. We were very pleasantly surprised. Obviously it’s an older building so is not swish or cool. Just very comfortable. All staff were friendly and the meals were excellent. Best value for money we’ve had for ages.
