Characteristics
Situated atop the historic Marlborough Downs in Wiltshire, Ogbourne Downs Golf Club offers one of the finest downland experiences in the region. Designed by five-time Open Champion J.H. Taylor, this century-old course benefits from a chalk subsoil that ensures rapid drainage, making it playable year-round with fast, firm fairways. The layout consists of two loops returning to the clubhouse, featuring naturally undulating terrain that demands strategic ball placement. A highlight is the club's own "Amen Corner" (holes 13 to 15), which navigates a scenic valley and tests even low handicappers. Sweeping views across the countryside and a welcoming clubhouse with extensive dining facilities complete the traditional English golf experience.

Difficult to play
Reviewed September 16, 2022
Nice course with many meters of altitude. Demanding and not for beginners. Green fee is £40 per person for 18 holes and £25 for a buggy. I would rate the locker room and clubhouse as below average. Overall there are better clubs for this price.
