What the club says: The setting alone is inspiration enough at Hever Castle’s 250 acre 27 hole course. Hever Castle, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, dates back to 1270. In 1903 William Waldorf Astor acquired the Castle and gradually added to the estate. In the 1920s the Astors created a nine hole golf course for their personal enjoyment, set around the Hever Castle lake and land to the north of Hever Castle, which survived until the Second World War when it was sadly abandoned.

Course being prepared for the winter so fairways not in the best shape. Greens were good though. Clay based so gets very muddy, and after only a couple of days rain, that was very obvious. It is a lovely course but I would recommend only visiting in the summer.

Could be better
Visually, this is a lovely course, but it ought to be so much better. Greens are fantastic, but the fairways are pretty poor to be honest, Drainage is clearly a major issue. A September round and the fairways are covered in sand and new drainage lines and not very well cut, So there are some fairway shots that feel and look like they're from light rough. Maybe we were unlucky with the timing, but I wouldn't want to be paying the money they're asking for a round if it had rained in any significant volume.The bar staff also need a lesson or two in hospitality.

A welcome return
Considering the rain, the ground was soft but not too soft. Greens even. Plenty of drainage points and bunkers were mainly GUR. A lot of work been done to the course in the 4 to 5 years since we last played here. All good. Some uneven tees but on the whole definitely worth the visitReviewer Rating

Best round
Course is currently undergoing quite a bit of work, improving drainage, bunkers and course layout, that being said it was a real pleasure to play. Probably a bit biased as I had the best round I've had in quite a while, but the course played really well. Bunkers that were in play were generally in good condition. Fairways well cut and looked after, greens had been hollow timed recently so we're very receptive, playing reasonably true. Some very interesting long holes and dog legs, made for a great round.Reviewer Rating

I played the championship course which on the day was damp so there was not a lot of run on, obviously not Haver's fault, but the course is very long and thus you end up taking more shots than you wish. Everything was in good condition especially the greens. A big and comfortable club house and plenty of parking. A little bit out of the way to find but worth it when you get there. Staff were excellent.Reviewer Rating

Lovely venue and course
Visited Hever yesterday as a 4 ball . Clubhouse is lovely and the staff were very hospitable. Breakfast food decent. The course is a treat to play . Every hole is different and so good on the eye. Front 9 gives you a chance before the back 9 really tests you but with some great holes and beautiful scenery. Bunkers are being redone and the new ones were very nice to play from. Some water hazards add to the fun. Course was presented in very good condition yesterday. Well worth a visit .Reviewer Rating

Played in a match, the course, apart from the bunkers which were mostly being rebuilt, was in excellent condition, greens had recently been worked on, but were running true.Reviewer Rating

Great course in good condition
Hever Castle Golf Club - Championship Course: played on a hot Summer's day, when the course was in great condition. The rough was punishing and a good chance of losing balls if you go in it. Hole 13 should be stroke index 1 IMO, with water all the way down the left and trees on the right to punish any stray tee shot. Staff were very friendly and helpful and did everything they could to make sure we enjoyed our day.Reviewer Rating
