The club is in relatively good condition, however as stated below the course is outrageously expensive. I certainly will not be returning,

Good course in generally good condition.. greens are in good condition and well looked after so sadly that does mean the odd temp in winter!

I have played here a few times and if i get more time to play would join here as it is a friendly club - once you get to know the real people.

Downside? there are a few moaners and they need a spike bar)

Every time we come it is on temps and I'm sure it could be a good course but for this. Members can be aloof and club not as welcoming as they make out.

Reviewed Nov 7 2012

Since last playing course has improved somewhat although the day I played it was on temps!! It was a cold and frosty day but as we worked our way around the course the green keeper took it off temps.

Disappointed with the service we got from a rather abrupt Bar Steward who clearly irritated by being interrupted texting on his mobile phone. Due to his size I felt intimidated and this would put me off coming again. The kitchen staff were very pleasant and had excellent food and service.

Mr Bojangles

Great course in great condition and little gem. I hadn't played before but was pleasantly surprised with track which was challenging in some places.

The staff were all very friendly, as were the members we came across who all asked if we enjoyed the course.. .the greens were fast-ish but true, the rough was tiger high (June 2018) but fairways were beautifully manicured so seem a shame to hit them!!

I would highly recommend the day rate for the course which give good value

The staff and members were very welcoming and the course was in good condition with the greens running well

The practice facilities were average and could be better with a decent chipping area and improved range area

Played the course on 7 May 2015 and it was in beautiful condition.

The greens were fast and the best that we have played so far in 2015. A few 3 putts !

Friendly welcome in the Pro Shop and from the Members.

Will definitely return.

Breakfast not available before 10 am, which was the only negative.

Great course. It is forever improving and i will be returning again. The members were welcoming and i was greeted by the secretary on arrival. Pro shop staff were friendly and even showed me around. Great service from the bar staff and kitchen staff also. Along with a fantastic meal and views from the clubhouse. Great deal at £35 for 18 holes and lunch!

Reasonably enjoyable day, greens were a bit shoddy. Tight holes and quite hilly so can be tough on your legs if you are getting on a bit like me! Perhaps I was expecting too much of West Kent, not as good as I thought it would be.

Lilttle gem near Biggin Hill

Lovely course set in the valleys behind Biggin Hill airport, a bit challenging with the various slopes you have to contend with it
