Woodbury Park Golf Club
The Oaks offers an 18 hole par 73, 7,314 yards set in stunning parkland with rolling fairways, European standard greens, lakes and mature trees. Offers a wonderful challenge to those with a handicap, particularly the 18th which offers a spectacular finish over the lake in full view of the clubhouse!
With it's tree lined fairways, well guarded greens and spectacular views towards Dartmoor, it is easy to see why this course was selected to host it's first PGA seniors tour in 2003.
The Acorns is a 9 hole par 32, 4,582 yards. A beautifully contoured 9 hole course for those looking for a less demanding but no less interesting challenge than the Oaks. With its tricky green side bunkers, big rolling greens and testing second hole, this course offers any golfer a great round while taking in the breathtaking views of the Exe valley.

Rated 1 by Sidmouth onGolf course review of Woodbury Park Golf Club
I've been playing golf for over 40 years at courses that rate as simple 'members' courses to those that put themselves in the category of 'championship'. Woodbury likes to think itself as one of the latter but if you are thinking of playing there in the winter - forget it!
My recent experience was to play a game on fairways that were so totally saturated and extremely hazardous that they never came close to anything else I have ever experienced in my life. No club I have ever known would have their course open in such conditions but as one informed source subsequently told me, they know if the shut it, it would never reopen for fear od creating a precedence!
Additionally, You should not expect to be entitled to (attempt) to play a course anything like it's intended legth. Temporary tees are perfectly legitimate and reasonable to expect in winter conditions, but when they are placed so far forward as to take out about 20% of the course, it makes the game there even more of a joke. The second (par 5) is just about halved in length!
The clay base of Woodbury causes attrocious drainage that Nigel Mansell, as previous owner, was never able to resolve in spite of spending a fortune. The one and only good point was that the greens stood out as good and well drained (although - and again reasonable to expect for the time of year - they had been recently hollow tyned).
It's an extremely challenging test of golf in summer but really, don't waste your money on it in the winter when conditions are wet.The Course

Extremely tough course especially in bad weather which we played it in - the rough becomes un-playable in the wet. Suggest you wait for good weather before venturing out on this very difficult course

Oaks course is absolutely superb in the summer and a bit wet and wild in the winter. The acorns is a really nice little 9 hole with some interesting holes. Its nice to play the 9 in the morning and the 18 in the afternoon.

The course and facilities are superb, so good we have become members ! You can not fault the challenge the oaks course presents especially on the gold tees at 7300 yeards, the 9 hole acorns also looks to provide a consistent challenge and the club is a far happier one with the new ownership in place.
