Staverton Park is a popular stay-and-play option in the Midlands, pairing a modern, well-equipped hotel with a championship parkland course just outside Daventry. If you enjoy traditional inland golf, you'll like the feel here: mature trees frame many holes, bunkers are positioned to catch anything loose and water comes into play often enough to keep you honest.
The layout tends to reward sensible course management over pure power. There's good variety across the round, so it stays engaging for mixed-ability groups, particularly societies who want a fair test without it feeling like a slog.
It's also an easy one to organise. With the M1 close by, Staverton Park is reachable from most parts of the UK, which makes weekend logistics simpler for groups travelling from different directions. Once you arrive, the setting feels pleasantly self-contained, with 150 acres of parkland around the hotel and course.
Off the course, you've got the essentials covered: comfortable rooms, a leisure club with pool, gym, sauna and steam room, plus an on-site bar and restaurant for post-round food and drinks. If you're after a convenient Midlands base with golf, accommodation and facilities all in one place, Staverton Park ticks the key boxes.
