Golf courses in Oxfordshire

Oxfordshire is perhaps not the first name that comes up in conversation about golf in southern England, but the county deserves more attention than it receives. Beyond the dreaming spires of Oxford lies a golf landscape of considerable quality and variety — from the broad, well-watered parkland courses of the Thames Valley to the drier, more characteristic heathland and downland courses towards the Berkshire and Cotswold borders. Frilford Heath Golf Club near Abingdon is the county's most complete offering: three distinct courses on sand and gravel soil that drain superbly and offer year-round playability. The Green Course is particularly highly rated and would hold its own in much more fashionable company. Tadmarton Heath Golf Club near Banbury is a hidden gem — a classic heathland course with a character more reminiscent of Surrey or Hampshire than the English Midlands. The Oxfordshire Golf Club provides a more modern resort experience with a course designed by Rees Jones that regularly hosts professional events. Oxford itself is one of England's most rewarding cities to spend time in, making Oxfordshire an excellent destination for a golf trip with culture built in. Accessible via Birmingham Airport or London's airports, with good motorway links. Browse all Oxfordshire golf courses on Leading Courses and plan your next golf trip.
