What the club says: World renowned golf course architect Rees Jones has successfully blended 18 strategically contoured holes into the surrounding countryside.

A relative rarity in Britain, the course has been designed in a modern American parkland style, and specifically as a potential venue for international golf tournaments.

Excellent visit last week at the Oxfordshire. Took advantage of the £25 offer during April before prices shot upto £75 for the same time.Very little to complain about.Course was in very good condition and enjoyed by us all.The only complaint was bunkers needed a bit more sand.Will definitely return next year or later on.

Very enjoyable course - glad of the buggies

This is a very nice course, has a bit of links about it even though it's at Thame in Oxfordshire. Some long holes, lots of bunkers and lots of water. Glad we had buggies. Friendly staff (just not enough of them behind the bars). Comfortable rooms, decent breakfast. Pricey drink (but not ridiculous). Would definitely play again. As a high handicapper the course was tough, but still really enjoyable.

Society golf day

Our golf day at end of March was well priced, and the food was decent. The course was quite dry and the greens had been tired. Bar prices were very high, such as Guinness £9 a pint.

Good course

Course was in excellent condition considering wet weather, however, greens were a touch on the slow side, and some of the bunkers could be improved. Breakfast portion sizes could be improved, but overall an enjoyable experience.

Amazing course. The place is stunning in the summer. Fairways like carpets. Rough really long and deep.
Greens weren't as nice as I thought they would be. But they were running true but slow. Pace of play was good. 3 hrs 50 minutes for the round

Great 2 days

We did the 2 round 1 night stay and play, course was in great condition from Tee boxes to the large and varied greens. bunkers a little sparse in places at the bottom but other than that a great course and with the many lakes and the varied t boxes a challenge for all levles.

Great once dry

I played this course in March and the fairways were so boggy (heavily plugged on fairways) but the greens and tees were immaculate. I played yesterday and its such a good course. Interesting holes, decent length off the whites, great views. Obviously dried out and for £45 after 4pm its well worth that.

The setting is brilliant but the course is still recovering from the wet winter with fairway drives plugging in the mud. Would like to try it again when it's not so scrappy.

Could be very good

The course is lovely and in a great setting but was still very wet. A lot of shots were plugged and the first cut was so long that balls were lost when only a couple feet off of the fairway. Bunkers were solid and compacted with some still holding water. All of which is understandable this time of year but don't charge full price when the course is not up to par.

Disappointed

Have plated here several times, but latest visit quite disappointing. For a course perceived as on of the best in the area the fairways and bunkers displayed a distinct lack of maintenance. Several of the bunkers towards the end of the course were littered with weeds. Greens were, however, good.

Keep clear

Bland and uninteresting, check in was slow and uninspiring. Rooms were ok but they knew w people were sharing but only put enough shower gel and coffee for one. Heating was off and small inefficient fan heater placed in room. Draught beer not available on 3 different ocassions, when back on it was of poor quality and vastly overpriced. Golf course was more swamp like and shouldn’t have been open, greens had been slit (they didn’t tell us) halfway house guy very friendly but again overpriced. I could go on and on but you get the idea. Save your money.

Great Weekend

Arrival: Easy to check in, rooms are well equipped and in great condition.
Pre-Game: Breakfast was nice and comfortable in the spike bar, a nice feature not having to switch out of studs. Driving Range, Sand trap bunker, and putting greens are all close to course play.
Game: The course was wonderful with some really rewarding holes. And as expected our timing was just over 5 hours, due to a bit of bunching.
Post-Game: The dinner was great. The evening bar was well staffed and ran very smoothly.

lovely course

Just back from a 2 day / 1 night stay at the Oxfordshire - course was in great condition, hotel is good, food ok too.
My only 'gripe' would be the beer selection on offer.
As an 'out of town' location you really need to have a decent selection of drinks for overnight guests, so surely you can get some decent 'ale' in the upstairs bar, even if you can't get it on draft then get a choice of some bottles of craft beer in.
You had 'old speckled hen' down stairs, a local brew, for example, but not upstairs. For a decent hotel I'd expect a choice of 5-6 craft beers in bottles, a couple of famous brands that people will like and maybe a couple of local brands that people may not have tried before.
