The Best Golf Courses in Bethersden, Kent, United Kingdom (2025)

An undulating and challenging but well looked after parkland/heathland golf course. Although I find it bizarre that the red tees are often placed the same as or even a bit farther than the yellow ones. Accommodating pro shop staff and friendly golf course members too. Enjoyable round!

Great course, some very challenging holes and some really great little par 3s. The 16th is a particular highlight. Really well maintained. It was a bit wet and windy when I was there so the sand traps were quite firm (luckily for me) and the greens a little soft. But that is not the green keeper fault. Looking forward to going back on a sunnier day. Had a pint and a sandwich in the clubhouse after our round. Nice selection of beers and sandwiches. All the staff, from the chap in the pro shop, to the greens staff, and the bar staff were friendly and helpful. Really nice place all round.

My Family played a 4 ball this afternoon after winning it in a charity raffle. Course was in great condition. Greens were true and firm. We got round easily in under 4 hours, even after hunting for a few balls. Pro shop staff were very friendly. No food available mid afternoon after the round (it was a Wednesday). Half way house had sausage rolls, chocolate and ice creams. All in all, very pleasant.

Society day at Faversham golf club, plenty of parking and nicely laid out. Nice putting and chipping areas. Couple nets to warm up your swing. Decent coffee and bacon bap on arrival. Tees are decent. Most fairways are tree lined. With some pretty holes. Course is cut through a valley, so you get a few uneven lies. Greens were fast and challenging. On completion, we had burger and chips served hot and fresh. Decent beer. All in all, a good days golf.

I’ve been having golf lessons with James Prophet for some time now and have really appreciated his direction and wisdom with my swing. Without his guidance I would be lost in my ability progression, definitely recommend.

Fantastic venue with plenty to do. Golf range and 3 courses. Food is fresh and tasty with an extensive menu. Fully stocked bar with friendly attentive staff. Loads of wildlife on site ranging from ducks, geese, crows and so forth. Buggies, trollies and clubs are all available to hire and all golfers are welcome regardless of ability.

I found out about Stonelees simply from browsing courses on Google maps. I've had a long absense from golf and was looking for the right place to visit and gently get back into the game. Having read the reviews and looking at the features via their website I decided on Stoneless and I'm so glad I did. The practice facilities are excellent, especially the putting green. Green fees are incredibly fair! With 3 levels of courses to choose from, there is something for everyone. I tried the 5 hole par 3 course first and that's a very easy course for practicing short game and it was nice to play a few times before moving onto the next levels. The Executive is an excellent mostly par 3 course which is quite a challange, with some water and slopes on many holes and smaller greens. I tried the Heights course for the first time today and was very very impressed. The greens were fantastic. Some holes are very challenging due to some long and narrow fairways, but that's what makes the course so good. My first 4 holes went very well and then a little downhill after, but not having played for close to 15 years, I guess it'll take a little more time to get my game back. I also have to mention another reason why I really like Stonelees... it's very laid back and not a bit of snobbery to be seen. The snobby nature of many golf clubs is what turns me away. But Stonelees is very welcoming, which is why I travel over 40 miles each time I visit. It's now my regular club. Only thing left to try is the food, which I hear is fantastic. So thank you very much to Stonelees for helping me get back into golf and, most importantly, enjoying golf again.

Various courses. Alot of work going on with the par 3, which has limited this one for a few years. Clubhouse is nice and food not too badly priced. I visited again today and uprated my opinion, since I had a lunch of burger and chips, which was excellent value and very tasty. The par 3 is still undergoing work.

Beautiful course, I’m not a golfer myself but I’ve now held two charity golf days here and from an organisation view I could not fault it, Jo and Donna were superb and a huge help.

Great golf course with some picturesque and challenging holes.Greens and fairways in good condition in November. Pro shop and hospitality staff are all really friendly. Great value , thoroughly recommnded

Very welcoming and friendly reception from the pro shop. The course is very well maintained and in a good condition. Challenging hilly slopes and sometimes requiring a blind shot. It has the best view for a golf course in Kent! My local favourite course.

Excellent golf course, greens superb, the back nine very different from the front nine, and trust me on a hot day you'll understand why they call the 17th the heart attack hole! Fantastic views of St Mary's Bay and Dungeness, staff friendly and efficient, breakfast was above average. If you are senior or have mobility issues would highly recommend booking a buggy. Didn't have any issues with waiting at tee's. The only down side was that the compressor had packed up on the 9th hole bar but soft drinks were still available.

Fabulous course with friendly people who play there. Can highly recommend Olly Francis too for his warm and friendly approach and oodles of patience with beginners.

Great day of golf on the Leas course, we could walk and play at our tempo and enjoyed the brilliant October weather. Nice welcome and sandwich in the clubhouse. Greens were the fastest we have ever played and the course was in top condition

Lovely place. 3 courses to choose from, a driving range and putting greens to practice on. The pro shop is nicely stocked as is the 19th. Great facilities. The academy course is perfect for beginers

Overnight stay with 2 rounds of golf. Course fantastic accommodation excellent. Food top notch.

A prestigious links course and one of the 100 best in England. The course is unobstructed, spacious and pleasant. We played Dunes and Himalayas, both after heavy rain, but the grounds were not too badly damaged (although there were puddles in places). They were well maintained and the greens were fast. It was very challenging, but I would like to stay and play in the summer next time🥰 At the end, you enter a toll road, but you can go straight through on the way there. If you see a staff on the way back, just declare that you played golf at Prince's and you can pass through for free.

I have been to this golf club many times and it has never failed to impress. The pro shop and bookings team have always been very helpful. The 3 courses are pure, greens roll fast and a lovely setting. Rounds in the wind are awesome but can be very challenging. So sometimes very difficult for a chopper like myself. I always have the best time going to Princes and am excited to return. A must play golf course.

Great 27 hole golf course & Hotel. Group of 12 of us spent 2 days / 1 night here (Sunday/Monday).Friendly helpful staff, Food was excellent / rooms clean & comfortable. Also little things make it ...Ie:- free bucket of balls to practise each day & free course guide. Good selection of beers & wines. Taking all of above excellent value for money.

Course in fabulous condition at the moment, bunkers great with decent sand in them Greens rolled true made me putt better lol

was visiting around chart hills and came up spontaneously for a round. pro shop and staff were very friendly and gave me a teetime. the practice area where spotless, and the course is just phenomenal. i was all on my own, waking the beautiful course. love to be back!

Brilliant course in excellent condition. We played mid May on an unusually dry day.

Course in great nick despite it being start of Winter. Friendly service from pro shop and bar. Great track with lots of interesting holes and practice area is ace

Great and maturing course. Top tracer range is fun for kids and adults.

Played the course for the first time yesterday. The course was in wonderful condition with some difficult pin positions. Really enjoyed the course, and would certainly recommend it. I will certainly will be back again. Staff in Pro's shop were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good value for money, and again the staff there were again friendly and helpful 👍

Lovely course that’s challenging but forgiving too. Can get windy due to being by the coast but just adds another dimension. Great clubhouse too with good food and friendly staff and Jake is a brilliant pro. Very welcoming family feel. Good range tracker too that’s been done up recently so club always spending money and improving the course and facilities

Course was in fantastic condition. Greens were fast! Lovely scenery on every hole. A real challenge. Always love a round here

Nice course with a good variety of holes and well presented... Although by no means 'long' - we have invited guests from far more 'prestigious' golf clubs and all have been complimentary and, somewhat, surprised at how difficult it is to score well.

Had a lovely day playing golf at Tenterden Golf Club. Such a lovely picturesque course and very peaceful. Not too busy as we had a 12.30 tee time. Staff in pro shop and bar friendly and helpful. Quite a challenging course in parts, with a few uphill fairways and greens. We had a buggy which was petrol driven, something we had not encountered before and it was the only thing that spoilt the experience as it was noisy and also very jerky to drive. We were told that they are due for replacement soon so perhaps next time it will be a smoother experience. I would have rated the club 5 stars if it wasn't for the buggy.

Only did s few holes on the practice greens and a few balls on the driving range. Good range for drills and coaching as the bays are a good size. It's fairly quiet also so no issues getting on through the day. The is a good sized area of hard standing for parking close to the bays.

Lovely course with some surprisingly challenging holes Friendly staff working the bar for post round drinks and grabbing a bite to eat.

I haven't played a round yet or been on the driving range, but I have been in the club house. (Played the adventure golf). Amazing. Great selection of food and drinks. We had the American burger, which was, dare I say it, the best burger I have had in years (comes with chips) and the kids' burger. The kids' burger was very nice and big too. Comes with chips and peas or beans. It was far too much for my son, so we took the rest of the burger home. I couldn't fault the service either. Very friendly, welcoming, and with a smile. The place was full of people, and the almosphere was buzzing. Need I say more. Only been once, loved It, and will be going back.

Go there pretty much every Sunday to practice my swing on the driving range. I take the kids and they enjoy it too

Great fun for all the family. Very clean , very well maintain. Good value for money. Putters especially made for little one and adults.

Great place to hit a few balls on the driving range at a decent price of £5 for 50 or £7 for 75. Have yet to try a full round but its a beautiful part of the country so Im sure it will be good. The clubhouse is immaculately clean the new crazy golf course looks very tempting.

Great course. Stunning conditions and set up. Has a good range of holes, some tricky and others a bit more simple. Definitely worth another visit. Value for money is also very good with a quality driving range.

Beautiful views whilst playing on a beautifully kept course. Greens in September were exceptional. Nice wide course so very forgiving. Some nice long par fours and tricky par threes. Not that hard a course but very enjoyable. Restaurant, cafe and bar are very nice. The staff throughout were very nice and friendly. Hotel looks like a lovely place to stay. We had a day of rain, so must visit again in better weather! All round good place to visit.

We attended a wedding reception. The venue was lovely and the food delicious. The service was very good. I'm a blur badge holder and my only criticism would be that there seemed limited disabled parking for the numbers that were attending.

Lovely golf course, first time me and my son went down today 8/9. We only did the driving range just to get the feel of the club to see if my son like it and he did. Went to pro shop and the young lad in there very polite and told me there the driving range was. Will be back to play a round when the weather isn't so wet
