Opened in 2000, the Marquess’ course was a breath-taking addition to the golf club creating a 54-hole complex that is possibly unrivalled anywhere in the UK. Named after the then Marquess of Tavistock, the new course measures 7,214 yards and is already being called the 'Jewel in the Crown'.

Set within 200 acres of mixed woodland the Marquess’ course overlaps the county boundary dividing Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire and presents a variety of rolling and undulating terrain. The predominant tree species are pine, spruce, sweet chestnut and oak, while there are a number of rare specimens such as Corsican pine, yew, rowan and beech.

The course has been designed to provide an enjoyable challenge for all golfers with each hole having its own unique character.
