Dunstable Downs Golf Club
“A Breath of Fresh Air”
Welcome to Dunstable Downs Golf Club
“Moments spent in such company helped to mould my thinking towards not only the game of golf but being associated with a club and, indeed club life, for which Dunstable Downs has always been renowned.”
This comment by ex-Ryder Cup and BBC TV golfing legend Peter Alliss epitomised the strength of the relationship he has had with Dunstable Downs for more than 50 years. Writing in the Club’s Centenary Book, Peter Alliss remembered a time when top class professionals could meet and play excellent courses to the total enjoyment of the spectators.
“How well I remember playing up on the Downs with the wind blowing and an enthusiastic crowd urging us on. We in turn trying to provide exciting golf and secure birdies which always resulted in a silver collection on the green! They were happy, innocent days, and if the golf was a bit shaky you could always admire the gliders which flew silently and effortlessly above the course,” he wrote.
So if you would like to play one of Bedfordshire and the Home Counties’ finest and most challenging golf courses, you will be assured of a warm welcome at Dunstable Downs.
