The bifold cardboard game board measures 14 3/8" wide, 14 15/16" high, and 1/32" thick. It depicts a golf course with 16 holes, 3 bunkers, 3 lakes, 1 clubhouse, and a cart path with a 1920's/1930's open air car.
The overall coloring of the game board is light green, yellow, blue, orange, plus flesh-colored for the cart path.

One side of the game board has a label filling the cardboard. The "GOLF TIDDLEY WINKS" (red with black outline) title appears at top center. At lower left is the "START" tee, with a man (brown jacket, light green knickers, long black socks, red shoes, gray cap) holding a club there.

3 players are standing and watching directly above, near the clubhouse with a fence around it.
The clubhouse (gray with a black tine fence around it) appears at center left.

16 greens appear on the game board, with "1" at center, "2" at upper left, etc., without an obvious connection between consecutive holes. Each golf green is light green with a numbered (from 1 through 16) white circle and a black line upwards with a red flag, serving as the pin for the golf hole.

The main cart path goes from near the lower right (above green "5") to the left, zigzagging around the clubhouse at left just below center. A car (not a cart) appears on the path just above green "5" and below greens "7" and "11".

The other side of the game board is medium gray and does not have another game board.
