Front 9 quite long with narrow fairway. Back 9 is tougher but can score well on.

Following a weekend of heavy rain, greens were slower than I expected but running true, and mostly consistent (I'm sure a couple of greens were slower that most). Fairways looked very good for this early in the year. Some changes to the course has left my yardage book out of date, and they don't have a new one yet, so I had the wrong club in hand a few times. Only visited one bunker, but they all seemed well stocked with sand, and well maintained.

As a guest of the Bedfordshire Past Captains Society I didn't have to pay, but the food was everything they promised, and the round was at a comfortable pace. There are a few points on the course where tees/greens (and even adjoining fairways) are a little close, so keep vigilant, and if anyone does shout 'fore' be aware. The course itself is quite tight (especially the last 2 holes) so go for straightness rather than length - it'll save you a lot of shots!

Overall a nice course and I'm looking forward to coming back.

Wow, Is all I can say. The course was in great condition. After seeing it was a private members club, I was astounded with the friendly welcome from the other members, even the juniors!!! Back to the golf however, very challenging!! The course from the scorecard is easy but hell no is it in real life!! Most holes are tight, requiring excellent thinking. The fairways were much improved compared with the other year or so I played the course. The greens were lightning, probably around 10-10.5 which on a wet day, in winter-ish is astounding!! The 11th is incredible, one of the best par 3's I have played in my long life!! The food was excellent in the clubhouse with decent prices for a private members club. However, the best part of the experience, were the staff. The pro shop were extremely helpful, notifying me of any changes to the course planner. The prices were astounding and the general feel was great. His name was Wayne I think( South African), the pro there, he was excellent and was extremely helpful with meeting my picky needs. So everall, a truly hidden gem for the time of year, played Woburn 2 days ago. And for less than half the price, way more than half the enjoyment, would definitely recommend to anyone, especially if they can hit it straight!!!

Great club facilities, quite expensive to play. I don't like the criss-crossing holes and the long steep walks on slippery paths

Just played here today and was astounded with the condition of the course. In Winter (still) the greens were reading around a 10 on the stimp and holding up extremely well. Fairways could still need a sprinkling of grass on but with winter rules in force, as long as you found the fairway, you could never get a bad lie! I did not experience any chris kross holes ecept the 9th which luckily was no problem as there was no group behind. The 11th, WOW is all I can say... Still made a 5 on it but that was due to the undulating green!! Would definitely recommend the course, I didn't get to check out the bar and food, but looking at the outside of the clubhouse, I would assume the quality was as high as the course was. The pro shop had a fair price and the pro there was extremely helpful. Think his name was Wayne? Great chap, he informed me of any changes made to the course, including the alterations to the yardage book. Overall, would recommend to anyone!!!!

Very good condition for the time of year, Front nine is decent but the second nine steps up a gear.Unfortunately, the signature par 3 11th wasn't in action but the temporary hole to replace it is fun. Last 3 holes are brilliant. Will definitely be back.

I've played this course 3 times: twice after heavy rain and once when it was 1*C. The greens stood up very well as did most of the fairways.
A great variety of holes with plenty of elevation changes, blind tee shots, short par 4s.
There is some areas where common sense is needed with tees placed very close to greens of other holes, such as the 8th and 9th.
I like this place so much, I joined!

The total walk is over 7000 yards, even though the course is around 6000. It's also not the flattest of courses, and I found it quite tiring. Some changes have been made to a number of holes to lengthen the course, but we were back to playing the original 18 holes for this County Seniors competition.

Some very tight holes (especially the 17th). and quite small greens, which were a fairly consistent pace, apart from where the greenkeepers had tried out their new "green iron" just in front of our competition round.

Bunkers seemed to have plenty of soft new sand in them.

Generally speaking a decent test of golf for such a short course.
