A fabulous, challenging downland course set on the Marlborough Downs, a true gem.
"...and as one sits on the lawn in front of the Clubhouse, one sees a panarama of Downland... On the south, stretching from King Arthur's Camp and Liddington Hill (the former a Saxon fortress, the latter a British one), to Barbury Castle whilst away to the north-east the Vale of the White Horse runs until lost in the distance beyond Faringdon Folly."
Ogbourne Downs Golf Club was established in 1907 and is set in rolling countryside on the Wiltshire Downs overlooking Ogbourne St. George. The course you see today was originally designed in 1927 by JH Taylor. Continuous improvements and maintenance results in a course of high standards.
We offer a fully equipped practice area with both covered and open driving bays and range balls can be hired from the Professional Shop (no collecting your own balls after an exhausting practice). The Club also has buggies for hire if you would prefer a more relaxing game of golf.
Aside from the course itself we have a full range of Clubhouse facilities. The bar is open daily from 11.00am; summer closing time is 10.00pm and in the winter, 5.30pm. The catering is open form 10.00am in the morning and serves a variety of meals and snacks. Your choice of drinks and snacks can be enjoyed at the bar, in the comfortably seated lounge area or on the patio, overlooking the 1st tee and the greens to the 9th and 18th, or if you prefer you can enjoy your meal in the cool, pleasant comfort of the dining room. We offer all members a Club Card which entitles them to discounts off both their catering and bar purchases.
We also have reciprocal arrangements with Corhampton Golf Club, Tidworth Golf Club, Yeovil Golf Club, West Wilts Golf Club and Weybrook Park Golf Club and are part of the Bristol & District Reciprocal Golf Arrangement Scheme.
Besides golf we offer a variety of social functions which combine great food and entertainment. These include the Annual Dinner Dance, Winter Ball, Summer Ball and our ever popular Charity Am/Am amongst others.
We welcome families at Ogbourne and have golf events throughout the year which incorporates all sections of the Club including, men, ladies, juniors and seniors.
