Favourite Hole
The short par three 8th is just a beautiful looking hole as you play over the river to a green perched on the edge .
Editor ’ s Tip
A strong putting stroke and the ability to keep your head down in such an enchanting setting .
Woodenbridge
Routed through a spectacularly wooded valley , Woodenbridge is almost overwhelmed by the peaceful beauty all around it . Two rivers weave through the course , adding to that beauty but also adding to the challenges . You have to cross train tracks and one of these rivers to reach the clubhouse . It ’ s the sort of start that fills you with anticipation .

This is as sweet and relaxing a golf setting as you could ask for . It is also a short , mostly straight course ( par 71 , 6,341 yards , back tees ) so you ’ ll feel ambitious stepping onto the 1st tee . But caution is often required with trees often pressing in ( early on ) and greens that can easily make a fool of you the whole way around . The par five 18th requires a big drive across the widest stretch of the river and it is a cracking finishing hole .
