Pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the layout

I enjoyed my round with the course being in good condition generally and found the layout interesting and enjoyable with different challenges on each of the holes.

It is a nice mix of challenging par 3’s, good par 5’s and strong and risk reward par 4’s.

I think the club house has massive potential but is underwhelming.

Great that you have the driving range and par 3 course as well.

This is a great course. It’s extremely well maintained and has a great layout. The course is flat but provides enough challenges for all golfers. Highly recommend this course.

Improved......would play again

Gave up on this course last year as it was in an awful state. After hearing from a member it had improved we gave it ago. I am pleased to say it has improved, considerably. Greens generally very good. a little slow but true. Fairways like most courses have suffered from the jack of rain but honestly, still fine. Pick and place us used so no impact if you get a bad lie. Bunkers look okay but lack of sand is still an issue. Better raking would help.

Overall we enjoyed our round and will come back again.

2 day mini golf break

I returned to Drayton Park as the first leg of a two day trip to Oxfordshire this summer. I've played the course before and it's not far from the A34 and has plenty of parking.

I played on a Monday afternoon and predictably it was quiet so the pace of play was perfect and the course was in good condition. This has plenty of challenging holes and some really nice holes with trees lining both sides, creating quite a nice view as you drive up each fairway (well that's the plan).

The bar area is quite small but the staff were very friendly and I will return again next year for another mini solo trip in my one man society.

Worth the fee

This is a nice course, I enjoyed my round at Drayton. The course proves challenging yet balanced. Greens were in good condition and the course played well. I’ll definitely be returning in the future.

The club has gone down hill over the last few years, pace of place was slow, greens are getting better but still a little poor. However a really good price for a knock about.

Well maintained, tough track

Despite the greens and fairways being well maintained this course was not enjoyable due to too many bookings on the course. We waited between 5 and 10 minutes on every tee box. The hazards are well laid out making this a tricky course to play. It's a real shame it took over 5 hours to get around.

Good course

Good course - greens in good shape, some interesting holes, I saw reviews that were less than complimentary about the state of the course and all I can say is that in late April the course was playing well.

Nice fairways, decent greens. Good variety of holes. Will play again and recommend others give it a go.

Challenging lay out. Decent / good quality.

Enjoyable round on a windy afternoon.

The course is a good challenge. Enjoyable mix of distances and some tough par 3’s. Course layout gets a little tight with a couple of holes sharing the a joined tee box and the green of another hole being very much hittable off of it. I think it’s the sort of course you’d need to play with a member to get a feel for what’s coming. Speaking of members not an overly friendly reception at the first tee from groups waiting to go out. (Not that this impacts my review).

Good track well worth a walk and fairly priced,
