The Marquess course openend in June 2000 and was soon referred to as the "Jewel in the Crown"
The Marquess Course, designed by Peter Alliss and Clive Clark, European Golf Design (Ross McMurray) and Alex Hay opened in 2000. The course was named after the then Marquess of Tavistock and was soon referred to as the 'Jewel in the Crown'.
Set within 200 acres of mixed woodland the Marquess's 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.
Since opening in June 2000 the Marquess course has hosted four British Masters tournaments. In 2016 Woburn hosted its first Major Championship on the Marquess course, The Ricoh Women's British Open, which returned in 2019 as The AIG Women's British Open. Between 2014 and 2017 the course was one of four in the country used to stage Final Qualifying for The Open.
The Duchess Course is a fine example of a course built for the thinking golfer, often referred to as a "Hidden Gem"
The Dukes Course designed by Charles Lawrie opened in 1976 and was the first of Woburn's three courses to be constructed
