Review Information

What the club says: Rye Hill Golf Club is a traditional parkland course, with heath land features and panoramic views. As a EuroPro Tour venue, it is testimony to the high calibre of this championship 6,904 yd par 72 course.

Benefiting from free drainage, the course is playable in the wettest of weather and trolleys
can be used all year. It will test the abilities of both high and low handicappers with its
strategically placed bunkers to catch wayward shots and the often large and undulated
greens.

Really impressed

We played late October a day after torrential rain and the course was in great condition. A long and testing course, with interesting holes and some lovely views. Great value for money.

Lovely friendly club

Very friendly club, the course was in good condition but we found the greens very slow due to moisture which we found tough. Some interesting holes and hard enough for us three high handicappers. Great back baps.

The course is in a very pretty part of Oxfordshire, the layout is excellent the front nine being fairly flat and back 9 from 11 onwards being quite hilly.

The greens were very big but also very slow and felt very spongy when you walked on them.

Clubhouse is nice but the bar/restaurant when we finished at 16:00 which was disappointing.

I always enjoy playing Rye Hill but they really need to improve the greens and some of the tees.

Long Course with some Challenges

Although this is a really long course it's enjoyable but at the same time challenging, the front 9 are relatively flat but the back 9 are where more of the challenges come into play, sloping fairways need you to consider where you are going to try to aim as it will roll sideways often resulting in your next approach shot. It's well maintained but the greens are slow at the moment and some need to have more time spent on them to improve their condition, they do run slow but hopefully as the season progresses the greenkeeper will be concentrating on getting them up to speed. Overall it's a lovely course and has been surprisingly quiet each time we've played it. There are outdoor benches where you can enjoy a drink at the end of your game and plenty of room indoors if you prefer, the ladies changing rooms are really well taken care of and my hubby says the gents changing rooms are equally well kept, this is fast becoming my favourite course to play at the moment, just wish it was a bit closer to home. There is a driving range but it is not under cover but fine for warming up, there is also a good putting green.

Best in the area

Opened in 1973, a traditional 3 x par 5, 3 x par 3 and the remainder par 4. 6768 yards off white, 6572 off yellow and 5982 off gold (golden oldies). The ladies compete over 5584 yards.
A parkland course with generous fairways, a few strategically placed bunkers and greens which need thinking about. Apart from a few patches of ?hay? the longest rough is about 3 - 4 inches the main hazard is the gorse which lines some of the fairways. Ideal for Societies as wayward balls are easily found and play is not held up.
Currently the greens are being prepared for the summer and are playing about 8, by summer they will be 10 -12. The course is looking well manicured.
The Clubhouse has a Pro Shop, bar restaurant where bacon rolls etc can be purchased and Societies catered for. The main emphasis is playing golf, not a social hub,
All of the staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful. There are several other courses within the area, I have been a member at Rye Hill since it opened which says it all.

Lovely course in need of tlc

What a lovely course but greens were really slow, needed a good cut and all bunkers out of action as no sand in them. This could be a real gem of a course but needs work to improve it and investment I assume.

Long and challenging

Currently the course is using the forward tees which makes it easier for medium to high handicaps. Off the full course length it challenges the best, the Europro Tour has played here.
The course is currently showing signs of wear due to the weather and it's popularity but will soon be back to its best.
