Formally a British Rail Management Centre the 18th century mansion has been superbly refurbished to provide a Five Star Hotel complete with banqueting suites, conference areas, championship golf course, luxurious spa and top class restaurants.
The formal garden was designed around the existing mature trees and the Grand Union Canal, fountains and other water features. Carefully chosen lighting has been provided to the water features, pathways and building façade to enhance the evening perspective within the gardens creating a perfect setting.
There is a four acre walled garden complete with tennis courts and an outdoor heated swimming pool. There is also an indoor pool and childcare facilities.
A championship golf course surrounds the hotel and the former stables have been converted in to a superb Clubhouse, including changing areas, spa and health facilities. The World Golf Championship is being held at the Grove in September 2006.
Three fantastic restaurants to chose from.
