Staverton Park

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Staverton Park for optimal conditions?

We recommend aiming for late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October) to experience Staverton Park at its best. You'll find the fairways drier and the greens rolling true, plus you'll avoid the peak summer crowds. The course truly shines when the weather is settled.

Is Staverton Park a challenging course, or is it suitable for higher handicappers too?

Staverton Park offers a really fair test for all abilities, which we appreciate. While the tree-lined fairways demand accuracy, the course isn't overly long, making it enjoyable for higher handicappers from the forward tees. Lower handicappers will find plenty of strategic bunkering and water hazards to contend with, especially on the back nine.

What are the must-play holes or unique features we should look out for at Staverton Park?

You'll definitely remember the par-3 17th, which plays over water to a well-guarded green-it's a real card wrecker if you're not precise. We also love the stretch around the 9th and 10th, where the mature parkland setting truly shines and demands thoughtful shot placement. The course makes excellent use of its natural contours.

What should we expect to pay for a green fee at Staverton Park, and are there any deals?

Green fees at Staverton Park are generally mid-range for a quality English parkland course, typically ranging from £35-£60 depending on the season and day of the week. We always recommend checking their website for twilight rates or package deals, especially if you're staying locally. Booking in advance usually secures the best price.

How well-maintained is Staverton Park, especially the greens, throughout the year?

We've consistently found Staverton Park to be well-maintained, with fairways that are generally lush and greens that roll true. While English weather can be unpredictable, the drainage is usually good, keeping it playable even after rain. You can expect a solid playing surface that reflects a dedicated groundskeeping team's hard work.
