Arrived at 11am a check-in was excellent both quick efficient and room available ahead of my golf round. Two little niggles for me regarding the room. Firstly no drinking water (which is a bug bear) so having to fill the kettle from the sink to make a cup of tea and then UHT rather than fresh milk (yuck). The second was the toiletries which were poor compared to stays at other hotels comprised off a solitary shower wash and a body cream un-used which came in a eco friendly pouch.

The hotel is what let’s this place down. They only have two bars, one doesn’t open until the evening and both bars are closed early..we arrived back at midnight after eating out and both bars were closed which let it down. Plus they couldn’t offer a late checkout which for a hotel is bad. The guy behind the desk was a NO man! If the hotel was better I’d have rated the whole experience as 5 star.

Overall, the stay was a positive one. The staff were helpful and polite, the rooms were very smart and comfy, and the spa facilities were a great addition. There were a few things that put a slight dampener on the weekend. On the Sunday evening after we played golf we had a couple drinks in the spike bar before food. The room was not that busy however the time taken to get a pint was really disappointing. As well, some of the pints poured were not of a great standard, and when paying £6 a pint you'd at least like to fully enjoy it! There were 12 of us eating, 10 of which had the steak. There were very mixed reviews of the quality of the steak. I thought mine was great but a few others had very different views which was a shame. Also on the evening, the golf masters was on TV and coming to a conclusion, with a full lounge bar area with at least 30 people in. They shut the bar at 11 45pm with everyone wanting a couple more drinks to enjoy such an occasion, but sadly this would not be accommodated. Otherwise, it was a positive experience, and the general view is we would happily visit again, but possibly mostly because of the great golf course outside.

Very low staff levels, some of the staff were less than helpful, noisy revellers outside their rooms at 2am, food ok but on a golf break the limited dinner menu remained the same on both days, the "restaurant" was a conference room with some tables, not a proper restaurant at all.

The Sports Bar downstairs is disappointing as the range/quality of food is variable and the place lacks any views of the course and therefore any atmosphere. The bar upstairs has panoramic views especially from the large terraces and has a nice ambiance albeit the price of £13.50 for G&T is far too expensive for thirsty golfers!! The evening meals were served in the private dining rooms where the food and the service is excellent - wine is a bit OTT price wise but as the package for 2 nights/3 rounds of golf is cheap they have to make their money somewhere!

We booked this venue on the recommendation of Your Golf Travel some 2 months ago and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></a>it was only week a prior to going that I looked up reviews on Trip Advisor. I was slightly concerned after reading some of the reviews. However from the moment we arrived, things could not have gone better. The 2 receptionists (Angie and Anne) were an absolute delight, both were extremely cheerful and so willing to help and advise. Nothing was too much trouble. Because some the reviews were about slow play on the golf course (rounds lasting up to 5 ½ hours) we asked for our original table booking for the evening to put back an hour due to our concern of having to rush to shower and change for dinner. Angie said no trouble and sorted it out on the spot.   Most probably the best reception that we have ever received. (Well done you 2 ladies) We arrived at about 12.00 noon and as our rooms were not available we went to the spike bar to have a drink and a snack before playing golf at 13.40 pm. Again we received excellent service from friendly staff members. Some reviews claim the drinks were expensive, and while they are not cheap, they compare with the average hotel prices. The golf course overall was in excellent condition considering the extremely heavy rain that had fallen 2 days previously. Unfortunately some of the bunkers still had water laying in them but that;s understandable. The fairways and greens were in absolutely perfect condition and the course features a good selection of testing holes. A typical American style layout with plenty of water and lots and lots of bunkers; I would suggest a few too many. There was quite a lot of walking from greens to tees which might add to the time to play, but our 4 ball still managed to complete our round in 4 hours 30 mins. My wife was wearing a fitsbits which recorded the distance walked on this round and it recorded 7.32 miles. We did have a few waits on some the holes due groups in front. On our second round the following morning we manage a 4 hour 20min. Overall considering it was a new course to us the time to play seemed very reasonable. We booked a table in the main restaurant where we had a restricted menu included in our package, but for an extra £7.50 per person we could have full ala carte choice. This is something that we took advantage of and recommend to others. We were served by a delightful young lady by the name of Macarena and she was most helpful and very attentive. The selection on the main menu was extremely varied and we really enjoyed our choices. I did have a slight hic-cup in that my medium rare rib eye steak when served was cold, but as soon as I raised the issue the manager quickly responded by replacing with a freshly cooked  medium rare rib eye, and apologised and additionally deducted our £7.50 surcharges from our bill. Top service. There was good selection of wine from which we selected both white and red wine and both were very good. What with the excellent service from Macarena and the prompt attention from Florin, plus of course the great food and wine; our dinner perfectly ended a truly enjoyable day. Overall our stay at The Oxfordshire really was a most enjoyable experience and one that we will definitely remember, as well as recommend to all of our golfing friends.

Thank you for recommending The Oxfordshire as it was everything we wanted from a golf break and more.  This is a first class venue with a superb golf course, an excellent hotel and attentive and friendly staff and we will definitely return! If I was to make any suggestion to the hotel to improve the package it would be to provide a slightly broader range of dinner options. I don’t think offering 3 to 4 options would overly complicate things. Saying that; the food itself was excellent.

Many thanks go to YGT once again for organising a fantastic golf break at such short notice; it was a birthday treat that was a dream from start to finish. The hotel is peaceful, clean and serves excellent food. The members of staff, particularly in the restaurant, really look after each guest and there’s a very good choice of food for dinner and breakfast. The guestrooms are spacious and comfy, and each room has its own balcony, which as a smoker is superb. The golf though is something else. There are bunkers and dunes everywhere, as well as huge lakes, so you really must apply course management and not be tempted to "go for" too many shots. The views are stunning while you play too. No matter your score at the end of the round, the experience of the course is a dream and we’ll definitely be returning soon.

There were 12 of us in our group, all of which had positive things to say about the course. The greens were in fantastic condition, very quick and true, but very hard to get any grip when landing on them. The first round on Sunday took nearly 5 hours which was a slight shame, with waiting on the tee nearly every hole, with about a 30min wait on the 13th next to the halfway house. Monday was much quicker and fluent taking just over 4 hours. The fairways were in great condition, nearly all bunkers had a good amount of sound, and the views around the course, especially near the golf course, really are brilliant. And there were some brilliant holes to play, our favourites being the 5th, 8th, 13th and 17th. Our handicaps ranged from 5 to 26 and everyone had challenges and rewards for their shots. Again, one slight dampener was the prices down there. In the pro shop, it cost £3 for a bottle of water which was a bit of a shock. However was £1.50 at the halfway house. In general everything seemed a bit over priced but maybe that's just Oxford prices in general We would happily return to play this course again down the line and would recommend it to other parties.

We went on this trip for the golf and weren’t disappointed as the course was very nice, in good condition with well kept fairways and greens. Would definitely recommend the course.

Nice course with some interesting holes, good challenge. Very open, so wind is the defence. Would not want to play it in the rain.

The course is one of the best in the SE and reminds me of the Faldo designed Chart Hills with many undulating mounds bordering the fairways and a large number of bunkers. The signature 8th offers a challenging drive and approach shot with a huge lake running along the right side of the fairway and in front of the green - ditto the challenging par 5 17th!!Despite the water our group ranging from handicaps 9-39 enjoyed the experience as the course offers sensible "bail-out" routes if you can't carry the water. Inevitably work was being done to the greens and fairways - some of which were patchy but every course has suffered after the drought of 2018!

Love the challenge of the golf course. The fairways were in good condition with plenty of grass, and watered. Greens deceptive, but good and slower than we are used to playing. Speed of play an issue, as we were are 2 ball following a society which took 4 and 3/4 hours. The second day was better as we played earlier. Starter and professional staff very helpful. Love the course.

Course was in great condition,weather helped by being kind to us. Course wasn’t at all busy which meant we got round at a fast pace. Would definitely think about playing the course again. Food after the round was excellent from the spike bar
