Donnington Grove

Donnington Grove is a Strawberry Hill Gothic mansion, now a hotel and country club, and associated Golf Course at Donnington in the civil parish of Shaw-cum-Donnington, near Newbury, in the English county of Berkshire.

Donnington Grove was built in 1763 for James Pettit Andrews the half-brother of the lord of Shaw Manor.

Records show that Donnington House was expensive to construct and costly to maintain.

By the time Brummell died, the estate covered 800 acres (3.2 km2), the house and stables had been extended and entrance lodges erected.

The course is well known for the change in character across its 18 holes: the front 9 are on notably higher ground whilst the back 9 are in classic parkland with an abundance of trees and water hazards.
