Burford Golf Club
Burford, Oxfordshire, OX18 4JG
Designed by J. H. Turner, the then professional at Frilford Heath Golf Club, the first nine holes of Burford course were opened for play in May of 1936. Construction of the second nine holes commenced in late 1936 and completion was made in remarkably short time with the official opening on 30th September 1937.
The course found instant success but the outbreak of the Second World War saw the fairways of the new second nine ploughed up for cereal production, eventually being restored for play in 1949. The farmer who had cultivated and reaped the harvest during that time presented the Club with the Harvest Cup to be competed for annually.
Members and visitors today see a course with tree-lined fairways that are always in good condition and a delight to play. The course is fairly flat and although not long at a maximum of 6,401 yards, it does offer a comfortable round for golfers of all ages and handicaps.
Burford not only possesses a course that discerning golfers wish to return to play time and time again, but this is complemented by a superb catering and bar facility.
