The Clock Tower - 4-Star Hotel in Daventry

The Clock Tower offers open-plan studio rooms with a super-king bed and a private balcony overlooking the garden. The top-floor room sits next to the old clock mechanism and includes a large en-suite bathroom with a spacious bath and views of the countryside. Each unit has a seating area, outdoor furniture on the balcony, and a flat-screen TV.

Owners Lizzie and David Bland welcome guests to the historic building and offer daily housekeeping, luggage storage, and free WiFi and parking. Guests can use complimentary bicycles to explore the surrounding countryside and quiet lanes. The hotel also provides a picnic area, sun terrace, and garden with outdoor furniture.

The Clock Tower sits in the Catesby countryside, 34 km from Silverstone and 36 km from Warwick Castle. A gate-locked lane with no traffic leads to the Red Lion pub in Hellidon, a 25-minute walk through fields. Kelmarsh Hall is nearby, and guests can enjoy cycling routes and pub crawls in the area.

A daily breakfast is served on-site with buffet and à la carte options including local specialties, fresh fruit, berries, yogurt, and fresh orange juice. Guests can order cooked breakfast items such as poached eggs, and the hotel offers special diet menus upon request. The breakfast is presented in a relaxed setting with views of the garden.

The hotel provides babysitting and child services for families, as well as board games and a kid-friendly buffet during breakfast. Children can enjoy the garden and the on-site bicycles, while parents can relax on the terrace. The owners are welcoming to families and can offer recommendations for nearby walks and attractions.
