Stapleford Park Country House is really wonderful. You feel a little bit like you're in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by beautiful grounds, woodland and perfectly manicured lawns. I went here to meet some friends after dinner for a 30th - I couldn't make it for the food but I was assured it was wonderful - we sat and enjoyed a couple of digestifs and it felt very special.

The Hotel & Estate
As one of England's finest stately homes, Stapleford Park offers a stunning blend of architecture, history and landscape. Set in 500 acres of woods, parkland, beautiful gardens and with a heritage stretching back to the 14th century, the setting is unique. However there is far more to Stapleford Park than its magical environment, for excellence is sought and achieved in all areas.
The highest standards of service are combined with the informal luxury and warm welcome traditionally associated with a country home, whilst the range and quality of facilities and activities is exceptional.
Rooms & Suites
Perhaps the most memorable of the rooms will be your bedroom - the 55 bedrooms at Stapleford are all individually designed and furnished, reflecting the styles of their creators. Choose your favourite from a selection of what must be some of the most uniquely designed bedrooms you will ever experience.
All rates are per room, per night and are based on two sharing and include Wi-Fi, a newspaper of your choice, full English Breakfast and VAT at 15%.
Accolades
The AA has named Stapleford Park as one of the top hotels in the British Isles.
It has been awarded a prestigious 4 red star rating for its accommodation along with 2 AA Rosettes for the high quality of its food.
The AA has selected 200 hotels in Britain and Ireland to receive red rather than the usual black stars. It is possible for a hotel to be awarded between one and five stars to indicate the quality and range of each hotel's services and facilities, and hotels in all five categories have been selected to be part of the Top 200.
What secured Stapleford Park's place in the top flight are the very high marks awarded by AA inspectors for the outstanding levels of comfort, quality, cleanliness and customer care.
The AA's chief hotel and restaurant inspector, Peter Birnie, explains: Stars are a record of the quality and range of facilities and services offered at each hotel, but on top of this our AA inspectors carry out a unique quality assessment of every establishment on our books.
