Frequently Asked Questions

How can I play a round at Bedford Golf and Tennis Club if I'm not a member?

Bedford is a private club, so you won't be able to just book a tee time. Your best bet is to find a member to invite you as their guest; that's how we've always gotten on. It's truly the only way to experience this classic track.

What makes the golf course at Bedford unique, and what should I look out for?

You'll find a classic A.W. Tillinghast design here, which means strategic bunkering and greens that demand precision. We particularly love the back nine, especially the challenging par-3 12th over water and the risk-reward par-5 15th. It's a true test of old-school golf.

When is the best time of year to play golf at Bedford Golf and Tennis Club?

We always recommend playing in the fall, typically late September through October. The course conditions are usually pristine, and the foliage around the property is absolutely stunning, adding an extra layer of beauty to your round. Spring can be lovely too, but fall is truly special.

Besides golf, what other amenities does Bedford Golf and Tennis Club offer, and are they worth experiencing?

Absolutely, the "Tennis Club" part of the name isn't just for show-they have fantastic clay courts that are meticulously maintained. If you're a tennis enthusiast, definitely bring your racket; it's a great way to round out your day. The dining facilities are also top-notch, offering a relaxed atmosphere perfect for post-round drinks.

What's the overall atmosphere like at Bedford Golf and Tennis Club? Is it very formal or more relaxed?

You'll find a wonderfully relaxed yet refined atmosphere here, a perfect blend of tradition and comfort. While it's a private club, it never feels stuffy; members and staff are genuinely welcoming. It's the kind of place where you can truly unwind and enjoy the company, both on and off the course.
