Oxhey Park is a public pay & play course that has a bit of a history it used to be an 18 hole course built on land owned by the Blackwell family in 1910, who then sold the estate to London County Council in 1946 who made it a municipal course in 1947 with a par of 78, but it was closed in 1954. Now just a 9 hole course it has got some nice features on it's layout.
Don't turn up here and expect carpet like greens and fairways but for the beginner just starting out or the experienced golfer wanting a bit of practice it is well worth the visit.
The terrain is great for a golf course there are loads of humps and bumps all over the place and if they could get the greens to a better standard this course would be a little gem.
We challenge anybody to go round here under par for your handicap as the holes are quite challenging, from the tight line off the tee at the 3rd to the huge bunker in front of the 5th and the bank in front of the 9th.
If you are local to this course and want to teach your kids golf or fancy a practice round before the weekend competition, go and visit Oxhey and you may help them increase their profits and provide better greens and facilities.
