It
is testament to Woburn that all three courses the Dukes, the
Duchess and the new Marquess are all in the top 100 Courses
in the UK and Ireland. Each course offers you particularly splendid
long holes where risk and reward are never far from your thoughts.
The courses flow through heather, bracken and gorse with towering
pine trees lining the fairways.
The
Marquess although the youngest of the three has already been
host venue to the 2001 and 2002 British Masters, European tour
events. The Marquess course is not shrouded in as many pines
as its more mature sisters, it tricks its way around ancient
oak, beech, birch and plenty of firs.
Within
two years of opening, the Duke’s course was fit to stage
a tour event. Where the Duke’s finished the Duchess has
taken on with a greater variety of golf shots asked for. However
all three here are truly championship standard. The experience
is further enhanced by the excellent facilities available.
