Chauffeured golf at John O'Gaunt Golf Club
Chauffeured golf at John O'Gaunt Golf Club, Sandy, Bedfordshire. Golf in the area began on Biggleswade Common in 1891, and the club opened in Sutton Park in 1948. The Sutton Park course grew from nine holes to a full 18 by 1950, and the Carthagena course was added by 1980. The Carthagena course has much larger greens and longer tees than the John O'Gaunt, on quick-draining soil. The club's own site lists society days and corporate golf days.
