What the club says: On a glorious summer day, there’s simply no better place to be. With commanding views to the North Sea and lush emerald fairways and greens, our two courses offer a combination of beauty and challenge.
Northcliffe
The 54 Par Northcliffe Short Course, offer a perfect environment for beginners to the game of Golf whilst still being able to frustrate the most able of golfers with its idiosyncratic charm.
Main Course
The main course a challenging 6436 yards Par 71, free draining chalk downland course with views of the sea from every hole.
With a view of the sea from every tee and every green, North Foreland is a free running chalk downland course, and possibly Kent's premier all-year-round course - confirmed by the number of returning visitors and societies.
Originally a nine hole course, it was expanded when Lord Northcliffe bought additional land in 1912 and employed Fowler & Simpson to design the full 18.

The overall condition of the course was presented in a superb way, so friendly in the half way house as well.

The course played very well considering how wet it has been recently. The only issue was worm casts on some fairways, and one hole was reduced from a Par 4 to Par 3 for course re-design purposes (some new bunker work was being undertaken). Greens in excellent shape, trolleys allowed and normal tees in use.

Disappointing
Perhaps not a course for this time of year.By far the slowest greens I've played on this year. Lots of sand evident. Whole group struggled to get the pace of them.
Also, why so many par fours over 400 yards (7 in total)? Good drives were rewarded with 180+ second shots, then you pitched / chipped onto greens that weren't particularly receptive and you couldn't judge putts on. Also have to say that there aren't really any particular holes that stick in the memory. The words "that was a slog" were used by most of the group. We also all agreed that they're overcharging for what it is. (£50 even with County Card.)
So I won't be rushing back, and can't honestly recommend it unless you hit 300 yard drives.
People were very friendly tho. The "halfway house" is a must visit. Great food and good service.

Really lovely course. Greens are one of the best around and will give you a really big challenge. Need to stay out of the rough though!

Not our best day !!
despite having been in and out of the pro shop 3 times, the last occasion just before we teed off to pick up my electric trolley, no one bothered to tell us we were off the 10th !! the rough was extreme and if in it the ball was lost which made it very hard work, extremely slow, waiting on every T box, apparently due to a Ladies comp in the morning , so front nine was over 2.5 hrs. On the 10th we had a run in with some members , which is then we realised from a sign by the T box we should of started there , we had to let 3 groups through !! so back nine started after 3 hrs.... my rented electric trolley packed up on the 14th !! so i walked from the 15th. It is however a very picturesque spot on a summers day and the course was in good condition(Round played: Aug 2021 - Score: 94 Handicap: 19.1)
