I've been looking for a local club and have played most in this area now. This course is definitely worth a visit as you'll struggle to find a course like it. I am admittedly a little over the top when it comes to criticism but I would say for the money you probably won't find a better round of golf for your money in this part of Kent. It is a long course at around 7200 yards off the whites so if this is an issue it's quite simple - play off the yellows! Most holes on the course are what I would call medium to hard off the whites and I genuinely got to hit every single club in my bag which is quite rare as I do hit quite a good ball which means driver and wedge at most courses but due to the variety of holes at this course being able to hit straight with your fairway woods and long irons will help you post a respectable score. Without doubt the best holes are the par 3 at approx 230 yards which I reached with a 6 iron due to the fact that it's like hitting off the top of a cliff. The par 4 at approx 355 yards is also reachable due to the elavations. To conclude, this course at £15 per round at the moment on a Monday or Wednesday and two for one on a weekend is an absolute bargain . There are only two or three what I call "nothing holes". The setting as honestly magnificent. The negatives are the fact that the badgers have been busy on some of the fairways which ruins the look of some holes, but other than that the greens, bunkers are in pretty good nick. I am also sick and tired of people saying that at certain courses a cart is "a must". Yes it is long and hilly, but if you are under say fifty and "need" a buggy at this course then in my opinion you are seriously unfit!

Played for 1st and probably last time. Didn't think much of the course, very bleak and non-descript.

A very challenging course, appears daunting when playing the course for the 1st time but once you've played it a couple of times you remember the challenging parts and where the best approaches and lines are

Challenging course for the mid handicapper, but not too hard for high handicappers. Very long and hilly though, so a buggy is advised unless you like a good work out. Some patchiness in the rough - mix of mud and long straggly grass, which was disappointing, but greens in great condition and fairways very good.
