Difficult to rate this course given that it rained in biblical proportions, was cold and being on top of a hill, was also blowing a hoolie! But will say course is nicely laid out and has plenty of character almost (as described) an inland lynx style course (minus the heather). One critisism one be the greens however, nicely sculpted but so very very slow (I know, it was raining but not for the whole round and even dry these greens would have been very slow), my back lawn has better grass on it and I'm not particularly proud of my back lawn. There was however enough to make me want to go back (on a dry day) and play again.

Overall the experience was good but the fairways could have been cut shorter. Good practice facilities.

Ok but nothing to fancy. An inland links type of course due to the wind factor.

a very open course that is quite forgiving for off shots. Quite confusing however as there are not enough signs to show you the way round to the next tee off area and the tee's are not clearly marked. They have packed a lot into the area with a choice of 3 courses for all different levels. the 9 hole spires course is very good for a quick practice round.

Views over Oxford on clear day are great from the course. Some of the holes weren't overly exciting with few hazards. Some good ones though. Enjoyed the 9th and 18th most as both feature well positioned water hazards to make holes quite challenging. Course was in fairly good condition but did suffer a bit with the heavy rain in certain parts. Worth giving it a go though!

Nice course, but vistors may find difficulty navigating from some greens to next tee due to the lack of 'next tee' signs. Greens challenging.

Greens in good condition and a test bring small targets with slopes. Fairways and bunkers could be in better condition but some very nice holes and welcoming.

Best views in Oxfordshire
The course is in the best condition it's been in for several years. Greens, fairways and rough are all good. Work is being done to recover some of the bunkers. These are not the most inviting feature of the course but they are probably about as good as can be expected, given their heritage and the colossal potential cost of making substantial improvement to them The course's very good conditions are partly a result of a cool damp summer, but they are also down to the tireless effort of the grounds staff. It's a challenging course but it's also a haven for wildlife and, as ever, has amazing views over the dreaming spires of Oxford and its surrounding countryside. It has also retained its friendly, unstuffy atmosphere. In summary, a great place to enjoy the outdoors and a good round of golf!Reviewer Rating

Great course, great views
Firstly, superb views over Oxford!A great welcome in the shop the young lad even came outside to show me around.
A superbly laid out course & in much better condition from a few years ago. It's got a links type feel in places. but is a parkland course.
The greens are very fast & some of the undulations are crazy, to be honest at times they were almost unputtable. A little inconsistency in them as well, some hard as a drum, others a bit softer & spongy.
Bunkers need a bit of work.
There is a great combination of holes to have a go at & other holes where you need a bit more strategy.
All in all a great round for £25 & well done HH a massive improvement over some of my last experiences.

Great course, great views, friendly people
The course is probably in the best condition it has been for years, especially given the time of year and the climatic conditions. Greens are well-kept, fairways have largely recovered from the drought last summer and the greenkeepers have worked hard to tidy up the appearance of the course. It remains a challenging course with superb views over the dreaming spires and Oxfordshire countryside and is a friendly place to play golf.Reviewer Rating
