Great Course

A very friendly club with a course in great condition for winter play given on chalk. The views over the downs are stunning. They are doing work on drainage/irrigation but that did not detract from the overall condition. What I also liked was that they had two greens out in a shady part of the course but they have 2 reserve greens being used (not temps as at other courses). Good food in the bar as well

great condition

Golf course was in fantastic condition, fairways were very lush and the '2nd' cut extremely thick which proved difficult to get out of.

Greens were a little on the slow side but ran true.

Views from the clubhouse were amazing with gliders and the surrounding countryside visable for miles around.

Staff were excellent and very polite.

An excellent course always in brilliant condition the grounds staff have done an excellent job and the course seems to be getting better by the month, windy and difficult a real test but also a great course to really strengthen all parts of you game as a young golfer this course for me is the best outfit locally better then berko and chiltern forest which are well to short and it really teaches you course management as well as giving back and letting you have a rip please please give it a round I promise you won’t be disappointed

First time round here on a society day. Cracking course that played very well. Nice variety amongst the holes which made it interesting to knock it around. Greens were excellent and rolled really well. Food post round and welcome generally was also great.

in great condition

Dunstable Downs was in great condition when played, very dry but still quite lush in places.
fairways and greens were excellent even though the greens were slower than I thought they would be.
really testing course with some blind tee shots and approaches to well protected greens.
Stroke index 1 is a real test even for the better golfers.

some great scenery too and most of the course.

Has to be one of the best courses in the area. Several monster par 4's where IMHO bogie is a good score. The other par 4's are scoring holes and reachable in regulation. Lovely par 3's and the course is always in great condition, all year round. The bottom 9 holes are very scenic and parkland in nature, whilst the top is more exposed and resembles a seaside course.. Great course in the winter months. Whilst some other courses are saturated, Dunstable Downs, in many ways still provides great playing conditions..

Fantastic golf course in great condition. It plays far longer than the yardage suggests with lots of up hill approaches or tee shots over valleys.Big undulating greens are a real test for putting and chipping.Some great views over Dunstable downs.
