Golf courses in Kent

Tucked into England's south-eastern corner, Kent is one of the most rewarding golf destinations in the country, with around 22 courses spread between the rolling chalk downs of the interior and the wind-scoured coast. This is the Garden of England, and its golf reflects that variety: parkland layouts threading through orchards and woodland near Ashford Golf Club and Faversham Golf Course, then the raw, world-class links that line the shore around Sandwich.

It is on that stretch of dunes that Kent earns its reputation. The Royal St. George's Golf Club, Royal Cinque Ports Golf Club and Princes Golf Club form a celebrated trio of championship links, where firm turf, deep bunkering and a salt-laden breeze test the very best. Add the seaside character of Whitstable and Seasalter Golf Club and you have a region that suits every kind of golfer. With a mild climate and a long playing season, Kent welcomes the travelling golfer almost year-round, an easy reach from London or the Channel ports.
