The Three Locks Golf Club

Hole 15 at The Three Locks Golf Club captures what this Buckinghamshire, England course is about: a true three-shot par 5 with the River Ouzel running down the right, water crossings twice, and a raised green with the Three Locks locks visible in the background. Hole 6 reinforces the water theme — a par 3 demanding precise club selection and a clean strike to carry the water and hold the green. The 18-hole layout opened in 1992 and stretches to around 6,000 yards. Water is a constant presence, with the Grand Union Canal, River Ouzel, lakes, ponds, and ditches in play throughout, alongside bunkers, out of bounds, conifers, and trees. Access is semi-private. PGA professional Patrick Critchley offers one-to-one coaching and group sessions, including a 30-minute practice area lesson for £35 and a 6-hole playing lesson for £50. The clubhouse restaurant can accommodate up to 120 guests with flexible event spaces and tailored catering. A terrace with drinks is available after your round. The course is rated 4.2 by 200+ Hole19 golfers and is one of the most-played courses in England on Hole19.
