Introducing Donnington Group

A carefully curated collection of exceptional event venues, a four-star hotel and spa, golf course, and a much-loved riverside pub.

At Donnington Group, we’re driven by a passion for outstanding service, memorable dining, fine wines and thoughtfully crafted experiences. Everything we do is delivered with genuine pride and attention to detail.

From the four-star Donnington & Co., to the striking barn venue The Post, and the characterful Kingfisher pub with rooms, each of our properties is different – but they share one defining promise: to exceed expectations.

Behind every experience is a team of bright minds and dedicated professionals, chosen for their creativity, care and commitment to excellence.
