Golf at Cambridge Country Club, Bourn
Cambridge Country Club is an 18-hole parkland course at Bourn, about 12 km west of Cambridge, set among rolling ground, mature trees, a meandering brook and a series of lakes. Visitors book tee times online, and the club adds a driving range, simulator, spa and lodges.
The course
The course opened in 1991 as Bourn Golf & Leisure, designed by Jim Hull and Philip Crow on former farmland outside the village of Bourn, and has since been developed into Cambridge Country Club. It is laid out as two loops of nine holes, with rolling hills, many large mature trees, a brook and several lakes coming into play. The club gives the length as 6,315 yards from the white tees at par 71.
Booking and visitor practicalities
Tee times are booked online through the club's booking hub using the 'Book A Round' link. A driving range sits close to the clubhouse, and an indoor simulator can be used for practice, play and club fitting in any weather. Coaching is led by the head teaching professional, and the club runs group and corporate golf days. Beyond golf there is a spa, a restaurant offering afternoon tea, and lodges for overnight stays, which makes the club useful for mixed groups where not everyone plays.
Getting there
The club is on Toft Road at Bourn, about 12 km west of Cambridge city centre, and its lodges make it a practical base for a short golf break.
