DO

The Deerpark is Tewkesbury Park’s 6,554-yard, par 72-course golf course set in stunning parkland with panoramic views, water features, cross-cut fairways, veteran oaks and well-drained manicured greens. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or someone who’s just starting out, the wide range of golf facilities can cater to your needs. 

For the more leisurely, there is a hot tub, sauna and sun deck – or book into the spa, fully loaded with Natural Spa Factory products from Bath, for head-to-toe pampering (but book ahead to avoid disappointment). There are in-room bundles to bring the spa to you, too – or if you’re looking to break a sweat, there is also a gym and an indoor pool.
