Lovely setting !!!
Great deals to play on the course.
Unless you get the ball on the fairway, the rough is very very long, this makes it hard to find your ball and so really really slows play down. I know you should keep the ball on the fairway, but the rough shouldnt be that long that you can't find your ball.

Long old course that despite it's lack of maturity in places provides a stern challenge...I'll be back!

Some of the best greens i've played on for the money. Nice flowing course, particularly the second half which is lovely parkland. Didnt use the changing rooms but if they are anything like the rest of the venue they will be good too.

Reasonable course albeit distinctly lacking bunkers which would make it considerably better. Very overpriced at £35

A course that is showing signs of the terrible winter we have had but still a lovely venue with a very helpful team ii the shop and bar.

Will be having another go in the summer.

New course with very few tree lined fairways. Not as forgiving as you would expect as the rough is very long and almost impossible to find your ball. All holes offer a challenge and the holes with water are very enjoyable and picturesque.

A long course over 7000 yrds off the back tees - helped though by dry fairways so balls run a long way - good for the ego for the shorter hitters amongst us!

Greens nice and challenging but good roll on them. Oddly the course is similar to playing links although probably about as far from the sea as you can get in the UK!

Course is situated in lovely grounds. The course has no bunkers but challenging rough and fairways are tight on a few holes.
Twighlight price is £25 after 4.30pm which allows you just to get round if you tee off before 5.00pm.

Played this course at the weekend, its unusual because it has no bunkers! The rough is harsh enough to make it a test and I played from the whites at 6,800 yards. Its a pretty new course and it needs time to settle, a couple of lovely holes on the front nine and the back nine is a real test. Facilites were excellent, well worth a visit.

Misguided aspirations

A crisp sunny saturday in March 2010, mid morning tee off. An impressive entrance and a magestic manor house in mature estate gardens. I believe Luton Hoo has aspirations to be akin to The Grove. Good luck, they'll need it. The setting has the potential but, perhaps the pot hole at the main gate was an indicator of the flaws within.

The local facilities / brasserie etc around the shop were all closed. We were directed to the main house for coffee but gave up after receiving poor service and a coffee pricing in at £4.25. A brochure in the hotel showed a photo of a nicely groomed golf course.

Staff in the shop were pleasant enough, the course was very quiet too. We soon understood why. This course in its current condition is the worst golf course I have played in 20 years. A waste of money at £35 per round (and prices increasing next month). The greens were all brown, the entire course was un-prepared. 150yd markers were incorrectly placed (anywhere between 150 and 200yds out, as confirmed by our GPS). Parts of the course resembled a building site. Finally the shoe cleaner was out of order.

The course itself is split with 9 holes on the older estate grounds, predominantly featureless parkland with little or no definition between fairway, rough and green. The other 9 holes are in immature land with plentiful plantings of staked saplings overlooking the unsightly M1 with some man made lakes at the far end (the first of which is lined with unsightly plastic and surrounded by a wire mesh fence).

We will certainly not be making a return visit.
