About this course

Wycombe Heights Golf Center sits in Loudwater on the edge of High Wycombe in the Chiltern Hills of Buckinghamshire. The Main course was designed by John Jacobs, the noted English teaching professional and Ryder Cup player who became one of golf's most influential instructors in the latter half of the twentieth century. Jacobs applied his understanding of the game's fundamentals to course design, creating layouts intended to test players while remaining accessible to golfers developing their skills. The course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Chilterns, with elevation changes that add variety to the routing. The layout incorporates natural contours and mature trees that frame many holes, creating definition and strategic interest. As a golf center rather than a traditional members' club, Wycombe Heights serves a broad range of players and provides practice facilities alongside the course itself, reflecting Jacobs' commitment to golf instruction and player development. The setting offers views across the Buckinghamshire countryside, and the course benefits from good drainage typical of chalk downland areas. Wycombe Heights operates as a public-access facility, making it part of the network of courses in the Thames Valley and Chilterns region that serve both local golfers and visitors exploring golf in the Home Counties.
