Doesn't feel like a Harry Colt Designed Course

Perfectly acceptable track greens in very good condition. Some fairways require a bit of attention Overall enjoyable round but £72 for a two ball felt expensive so go early or late and pay less as at that price would have expected something a bit better in these days of cheap golf

Great little Gem

We played early on their gala day and the course was in excellent condition. The staff in the pro shop where really helpful and welcoming. Members were friendly, welcoming and happy to chat to you. The course was tight and well laid out but what else would you expect from a Harry colt design. It had some very pretty par-3 is and some excellent par-4. The par-5 is where all reachable into but the greens were well protected. The 12th was one of the best par-3 is I have ever played. The 18th was a spectacular finishing hole.

An all round beauty of a course

Smack bang in the middle of Oxford, just off the Cowley road, is this gem of a golf course.

I gave it 4/5 for Off-Course Amenities for having what looked like a refreshment hut at the end of the 9th (on-course I know, but that option is not available) but it was closed so we had to walk to the clubhouse to get drinks to rehydrate on a sweltering hot day (we had already gone through our supply it was so hot).

Very balanced course layout.

I arrived half an hour early and due to an important Oxford football fixture, the course was pretty empty.
Having been designed in 1922, the trees have matured and encourage some forethought on fairway placements from tee to green, so relatively challenging first time round.
A well rounded course which considering it is the end of January, played very well.

The club house is adequate, however I have played inferior courses around the UK with much plusher facilities, maybe a wealthy benefactor would be welcome.

Great value let down by poor pace of play and stuffy old members

Course was in good condition given the time of year and great value for money. Only let down was the slow play and stuffy attitude of a few 'older' members.
