3 or 4 holes need local knowledge - flag not visible on second shot or just silly shape hole

First time visit in June 2014 and despite early phone call to confirm all OK for an early afternoon game, heart sank seeing the car park full - no worries, it was an morning competition and there hadn\'t been anyone of the 1st for ages - bril - just how I like it with my 1st tee nerves. Warm welcome in pro shop, very acceptable fee, in extremely lovely weather to the 1st where a respectable 3W was probably seen by none in the clubhouse, whereas a duff would probably have been seen and derided by half the poulation of Berkshire!\Pleasant short par 4 opener leading to the start of \"the climb!\". Three holes uphill, but in truth, not Cardiac jobs, the view up the hill from the 3rd tee being worse than the bite, whilst the steepest was looking up from the 4th, but at only 130 yards or so, was no problem, other than my thinned PW through the back. On the top now, and 5 & 6 long out and backs and then over the road to probably the prettiest part of the course, with fairways bordered by most attractive pines (not leylandi thankfully). Very nice and exacting DL right 10th and then a sharp dog leg left to a brind green - trust the marker high up in the tree.\Probably the weakest hole of the course was the 13th where the tee is hard right against the bushes and unless a drive is hit with a fade, it is very likely to go staight on into the trees - difficult short par 4 but unnatractive to play.\Back over the road and thence you can see just how far you have risen , with the early holes and clubhouse seemingly about 1000ft below!\The real drop is at 17 where a drive just to the right of the marker is ideal and then its steep down hill all the way to the green, fantastic hole, leading to the 18th, another good downhill drive to a green overlooking the clubhouse.\Quick pint before rushing off to pick family up, well it would have been had there been someone to serve me, took a valued 10 mins before anyone appeared! - only minus point of day!\Overall, absolute scorcher of a course, friendly welcome, value for money, tremendous views, all holes different, greens excellent, fairways perfect, and rough cut well back in most places - a delight to play - thankyou Goring & Streatley GC, a very pleasant day indeed

I've only played here a couple of times, but I'm not sure I know why I haven't made the effort to play here more often.
The fairways are generally fairly accommodating, and the holes are a good mixture of tougher and easier holes. It's certainly not an easy walk, but once you've made the climb to the 5th tee most of the hard walking is behind you. The views as you make your way back to the clubhouse make the climb well worth the effort.
Goring and Streatley is just an excellent place for a round of golf.

Wonderful course, members and facilities. Only complaint is the lull between the 5th and 8th holes, particularly the 5th and 6th which are, in comparison to the rest of the course, boring.
Would happilly be a member here if i were nearer, which says it all though.

Great course - not too long but very interesting and challenging. The greens are true and fast. Some wonderful holes. There is a long climb uphill on holes 2, 3 and 4 but once at the top its pretty level. the 17th is a great hole as you descend the course back towards the club house. The atmosphere at the club is a bit stuffy but you can overlook this because the golf is so good.

Fantastic course worth visiting
Course in immaculate condition. fairways like most courses greens and greens in perfect condition - fast and tricky making an superb and fair challenge. Lots of vertical climb and descent on a few holes. The 17th par 5 drops what feels like a few hundred feet to a green you have to approach from as left as you can get or you just won't stand a chance!Reviewer Rating

Fantastic course worth visiting
Fairways in excellent condition with new watering system to greens also.Greens were very quick and with some pin positions became real challenges.
Views from around this pretty course of the Thames valley/Oxfordshire great.
Would highly recommend.

Beautiful setting
Quite a climb for the first few holes but worth it for the views at the top and across the countryside.Greens are very fast and it is not easy to stay on some of them.
Course otherwise in excellent condition given the past summer

Lovely Course in great setting
Course is still undergoing drainage and irrigation work and with all the bad weather it was in very good condition. Greens maintenance had just been done so there was sand on the greens and if yo know how fast the greens usually are here it mad putting a challenge. There was a lot of people on the course today so there was some delays early in the round.(Round played: Mar 2018 - Score: 95 Handicap: 19.2)

First time playing this course and I'm massively impressed. Superb greens, fantastic fairways and the tee boxes were better than some greens I've played on.
Very interesting course, a few short par 4s which I would play differently now. Great finishing 2 holes, particularly the par 5 17th.
Looking forward to playing this course again.
