Yarnfield Park has come a long way over the years. Built on the site that once served as the accommodation camps for the vast Swynnerton munitions factory during World War 2, it now operates as a fully commercial conference and training centre. Over the last three years, it has undergone a huge renewal programme, with bedrooms, meeting spaces, public area all being completely modernised.
If you’re looking to plan a meeting or event and you haven’t got a blank cheque at your disposal, then Yarnfield Park is an excellent choice.

It has to be said, that all of the rooms we saw during our visit had state-of-the-art AV, along with one of the best WI-FI connections we have ever come across. Coffee lovers are also in luck, as free flowing coffee is available for all meeting rooms, as well as there being a Costa Coffee in the lobby. A great range of day delegate packages are on offer, with bespoke packages available upon request
There are also 338 bedrooms here, making it a great choice for residential courses or multi-day events. Simple in style, the rooms were incredibly clean and perfectly functional. Food here at Yarnfield Park was also excellent, with their breakfast and dinner buffet being very, very good.
With 33 meeting rooms, this venue has loads of flexibility and can easily cater for any number of events, with plenty of syndicate and breakout rooms also being available. Its largest space, the Knighton, can hold up to 450 people in theatre style, 224 in cabaret or 80 in classroom. Another great option we liked was the Oak suite. Able to seat 250 in theatre style, 176 in cabaret or 80 classroom style, it is another super space.
