About this course

Woodlands Country Club sits in the rolling countryside of Skåne in southern Sweden, near the town of Örkelljunga. The club features two eighteen-hole courses—Magnolia and Cedar—designed by Swedish architect Hans Fock with later contributions from British architect Donald Steel, who has worked extensively in Scandinavia. The courses occupy terrain typical of the region, with gentle elevation changes, mature woodland, and open farmland creating varied playing corridors. The Magnolia and Cedar layouts share the property's natural features but offer distinct routing and character. Both courses incorporate the wooded areas that give the club its name, with tree-lined fairways requiring accuracy off the tee while providing definition and strategic interest. The design takes advantage of the landscape's natural movement, and the courses present a mix of risk-reward opportunities and straightforward holes that reward solid ball-striking. Woodlands Country Club serves the regional golfing community in northern Skåne and has hosted Swedish national amateur events and regional championships. The combination of two full courses allows the club to accommodate member play and competitive golf throughout the season. The facility represents the growth of golf in Sweden during the late twentieth century, when clubs expanded beyond the major cities to serve broader populations. The courses provide year-round play when weather permits, typical of Swedish golf clubs that balance a relatively short peak season with strong member engagement.

Getting there

The journey to Woodlands Country Club begins at Copenhagen Airport (CPH), just across the Øresund from southern Sweden, followed by a scenic hour-and-a-half drive northeast through the gently rolling farmland and beech forests of Skåne. The route traces quiet Swedish highways that gradually narrow into country roads, the landscape shifting from coastal plain to the wooded hills surrounding Örkelljunga - a small market town in the province's tranquil interior. For those arriving by private aircraft, Ängelholm-Helsingborg Airport offers a closer alternative, trimming the drive to under an hour through some of Sweden's most pastoral countryside. The final approach winds through dense Scandinavian woodland, the forest opening suddenly to reveal the clubhouse nestled among towering pines and hardwoods - a secluded retreat far from the well-trodden paths of Sweden's southern coast.
