Courses

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would GolfPlnr even mention Oxfordshire if there are no courses?

We know it's unusual for us to highlight a region without courses, but Oxfordshire is a fantastic base for exploring some of England's best golf, just a short drive away. Think of it as your luxurious, culture-rich hub between rounds. You'll find world-class dining and historic sites here, making your non-golfing hours just as enjoyable.

If I'm planning a golf trip to England, should I even consider staying in Oxfordshire?

Absolutely, especially if you appreciate history and charming English towns alongside your golf. While you won't play in Oxfordshire, it's perfectly situated for day trips to courses in the Cotswolds or Berkshire. We recommend visiting in late spring or early autumn for ideal weather, making it a central, upscale lodging option.

Are there any golf-related activities or history in Oxfordshire, even without courses?

Not directly, no specific golf museums or historical courses within the county itself. However, the region's rich history and stunning landscapes often inspire the design of nearby courses. You'll find the general English countryside charm here that makes golf in this part of the world so special.

What's the closest golf region to Oxfordshire if I want to play?

Your best bet for excellent golf near Oxfordshire is heading west into the Cotswolds or south into Berkshire. Both regions offer a fantastic selection of courses, from championship layouts to charming parkland tracks. We suggest planning your rounds in these areas and using Oxfordshire as your evening retreat, especially during the longer daylight hours of summer.

What's the best way to combine a visit to Oxfordshire with a golf trip elsewhere in England?

We recommend dedicating a few days to Oxfordshire's cultural highlights-Oxford city, Blenheim Palace-then basing yourself there for easy drives to nearby golf. You can play a round in the Cotswolds one day and Berkshire the next, returning to Oxfordshire for its superb dining and accommodations. It's a perfect blend of sport and sightseeing.
