What the club says: Heythrop Park is one of the most historic Estates in England and in keeping with its status is now graced by a quintessential English golf course which meanders over ridges and through valleys and is studded with ancient woodland, lakes and streams.
The new 7,088-yard par 72 course is the handiwork of Tom Mackenzie, of the internationally-renowned golf course architects, Mackenzie & Ebert, who are currently working on four Open Championship venues.

Reviewed Mar 24 2020 by James J - rated 4 out of 5 Lovely course, hotel rooms small
Lovely course, was good in winter conditions, so in summer will probably be perfect. Golf clubhouse only partially open as it was winter. Layout of the course is interesting and certainly challenging in parts. Hotel is tired, but main reception rooms and restaurant have been refurbished to high standards. Breakfast was poor, but acceptable. Dinner was amazing, superb food and drinks.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Oct 8 2019 by JJ - rated 3 out of 5 Lovely course - but not suitable for everyone
Heythrop is a great layout with many excellent and picturesque holes. But...A group of of us (mixed ages mid-50s to 70s) played the course recently and there are several things they need to address for visiting parties.
The state of many of their pathways is appalling and indeed, in my opinion, extremely dangerous. On several holes these are little better than rock and pothole-strewn tracks and very tricky to walk along, particularly as they are often on steep inclines and climbs. Certainly not suitable for those less nimble on their feet than they once were.
The other two gripes are that walks from green to next tee are ludicrously long - particularly on the back nine - and on-course signage is less than clear, so playing the course unseen can mean it's difficult to know where to go next.
Some of our party had ordered buggies but these were banned - deemed to be dangerous to use in the conditions and quite rightly too - which meant that one of our party was unable to play either day and simply ended up going home.
I think tour operators, as indeed the course itself, should flag up the distances between holes and the tricky terrain to be navigated in some cases so those who may struggle will be forewarned and understand what they are booking. To give an idea - our home course off the yellow tees is approximately 13,000 steps. Heythrop off the yellows was 18,200.
There are no facilities in the golf shop for cooked food so bacon buttie enthusiasts may be disappointed if they travel any distance and fancy something to eat before they go out. The hotel, reasonably close, by does do breakfast wraps or full breakfasts but they are not cheap and in our party those who indulged found them very expensive and served cold.
In summary we thought the course was great, very picturesque and a tough challenge, but with those visiting in a group of mixed ages and abilities might be quite a struggle. I have ticked the "would not" recommend button only on the basis of the paths etc. not the golf course itself.

We played this course in August and the conditions are really poor. I was told they dont have adequate equipment to cut the grass in certain areas.We were a large society day and we had buggies break down and when we arrived we were told they had run out of range balls. Disappointing.

Reviewed Mar 22 2019 by Steve C - rated 4 out of 5 Good long and interesting course
The course is well kempt with good greens and fairways. A number of holes have water hazards which can catch you out. Unfortunately the clubhouse does not provide the traditional starter bacon roll or any hot food during the day. Another problem is the approach road which is in a poor state of repair and, in my opinion, needs resurfacing. A long course not for the faint hearted and I would not attempt to play it without a golf buggy, particularly due to the distances between Green to Tee. So definitely a fair weather course.Course (layout/challlenge)
