Excellent course in great condition. Tough challenge for all golfers with a particularly tough closing four holes, a tough 167 yd par 3 (15), a long 426 yd par 4 with very undulating green (16), another tough par 4 - especially off the whites (460 yds vs 404 off the yellows) with another sloping green and finally a shortish, but tricky par 5. All three final holes often play into the wind! Top tip, everything, greens, fairways etc slope in towards the railway line that bisects the course.(Round played: Jul 2017 - Score: 89 Handicap: )

I used to only get to play this course in March, when there was little run on the ball and it was no surprise that SSS was above par from their winter tees (in use until April).
Played in late June in their Senior Open, and it was good to get some run on the ball and feel like I could reach the longer par 4's reasonably easily. It was a roasting hot day when we played, and they had iced drinks in the 'half-way house' which we passed 3 times in total. The greens were running true, but many of us could not cope with the slopes, and there were various reports of people 4 putting a number of them! Until someone pointed it out to me, I had not realised that there are a lot of right to left slopes on many holes (including the greens).
The food was good, and all in all we were well looked after on the day. The value for money of their Senior Open is undoubted, although I am unaware of the charges outside of this competition, except to say that the 'society' I play in which used to visit in Spring moved courses this year because of the increased cost of playing Northamptonshire County GC.

A really fabulous course, it doesn't look fifficult, yet everybody struggled with scoring. The best hole was actually 7a!!, a truly lovely looking par 4 that is Woburn-like.

Usually only get to play this course in Spring when there is little or no run on the ball, and that makes this a difficult task. It's used as a PGA qualifier and is quite tough for us mere mortals who can't drive it 260 yards plus. It's always well kept, and a new head greenkeeper in 2016 is making even more improvements happen. There are usually areas where work is being carried out - listen to the starter and take relief if you get in the wrong places - this game is difficult enough without punishing yourself. Watch out for walkers - there are a number of rights of way around and across the course, and I speak from experience when I say they don't look out for golfers AT ALL.

I played here a few weeks ago with a couple of colleagues, we were shocked by how good condition it was considering the weather we had days prior to playing it. The positives were that the course was good condition and a good layout, BUT we never felt welcome. Through-out our day we felt we were interupting thier members! Also we felt that the staff were quite rude. Nobody asked us about our day or wether we enjoyed it. The pro shop staff were not very helpfull, especially trying to get out of the place!!!!!! I would probably return here BUT only if i really had too, even thought the course was good!

Superb course, but disappointing greens
An excellent venue for golf, but spoiled slightly yesterday by very slow greens, which bordered on pay and play standard as well as attitude of members with two of our party asked to tuck shirts in, with one gentleman not even in the clubhouse, but stood in the golf shop.A great place that was spoiled a little
