CHEF - spring/summer 2025

Oustøen Country Club (OCC) has one of the country's most beautiful golf courses with a hotel / clubhouse (11 rooms) and a first-class restaurant. The club has 800 active members and access to OCC is via the club's ferry or private boat. We tailor events for members and companies to suit any occasion. The core of the club's "social golfing" can be found on the club terrace situated intimately in the courtyard from the early 18th century. The terrace is the club's natural gathering point and there is often a bustling life there, both before and after a round of golf. See more about OCC at www.occ.no.

OCC is located on Oustøya which is an island in the Oslo fjord, and access to the club is by our own ferry or private boat. We operate a kiosk, restaurant with both casual / à la carte dining, a renowned wine cellar, plus an 11 room hotel for members and their guests.
