5BE
36 Hole Stableford
Competition
Situated in 112 acres of
mature rolling
countryside the 18 hole,
6769 yard, par 73
championship length
course makes excellent
use of the surrounding
landscape and its
numerous natural and
man-made hazards and
beautiful features. The
course was designed by
Sir Henry Cotton, whose
philosophy was to create
a championship length
course with very little
rough, but incorporating
many bunkers and large
undulating greens, a
task he accomplished in
style. The course was
opened in 1966.
A broad repertoire of
shots are required to
master the course, which
demands that every
golfer regardless of
standard, is rewarded
for thoughtful and
skilful play rather than
for power alone

Woodland Manor Golf Club

Kent
36 Hole Stableford
Competition
K ent
is well known for some
of the finest golf
courses in England-links
or parkland. Woodlands
Manor, near Otford, is
one of the many
beautiful parkland
courses in the Kent.
What sets it apart? What
makes it a little bit
more special than the
other fine courses and
clubs in the area?
Let's start with
location. Woodlands
Manor lies in the
triangle formed by the
M20, M25, and M26. Yet
once you leave one of
these motorways and you
begin the short journey
to Woodlands, you enter
a different world. Or,
to be more specific, you
enter an official Area
of Natural Beauty.
Woodlands lies half way
up a stunning valley on
the North Downs.

18 Holes Pairs & 18
holes singles
Competition
Our superb heathland
course has some of the
finest and quickest
greens in Hertfordshire,
breathtaking views and
is a challenge for all
levels of golfer.
That 6th fairway, 5th
green and 2nd tee are
now known as Sunset
Fields, so called
because of their
magnificent evening
skies. It is also where
golf was played
unofficially by the
locals as far back as
1880. Unofficially
because the land was
owned by the Earl of
Strafford, who lived at
the nearby stately home
known as Wrotham Park.
He was the man who
decided to build a
proper golf course on
what is a freakish
"fold" of unproductive
sand and gravel among
the surrounding
luxuriant clay.
