Woburn Golf Club – The Duchess’ Course

Woburn Abbey and the surrounding Estate provide a stunning backdrop and historical setting for Woburn Golf Club. Whilst the Club is quiet and secluded, it is centrally located just 10 minutes from Junction 13 off the M1, 15 minutes from Central Milton Keynes and just over an hour from London, Birmingham, Oxford and Cambridge.

Home to the Duke’s, Duchess and Marquess courses, Woburn was the first 54 hole venue to have all three courses featured in Golf Monthly Magazine’s Top 100 Courses in the UK and Ireland and Golf World Magazine’s Top 100 Courses in Britain and Ireland. Having hosted almost sixty professional tournaments it is the ideal venue for corporate, group or society golf days. In addition, Woburn also offers mid week green fee packages for individual golfers and parties of all sizes.

The Duchess Course is sometimes considered to be the least challenging of the three Woburn courses, the junior sibling lying in the shadow of well respected and much heralded family members.

However, like many younger siblings, it’s not a charge the Duchess takes lying down. Nor is it one recognised by true aficionados. Anyone who has played the course knows this is a layout that demands as much respect as the adjacent Duke’s and Marquess courses.
