Good fun and popular even in the rain! Excellent to have an accessible path all the way around so our party member on a mobility scooter could accompany us and watch.

Putters - “public welcome as well as golfers” definitely the place to go for a coffee or ice cream on the beach. What I wasn’t expecting was THE best ice cream and coffee anywhere! Seriously good. Now my go to place when I need a break - highly recommended.

FANTASTIC!! The East Cliff Sports is an amazing venue for grass court tennis - 8 courts in all. There is also a Pitch & Putt Golf course as well as a Putting Green. Also, there is Lawn Bowls. All the equipment is supplied for all the different sports and is included in the very reasonable charges. All in a beautiful setting overlooking the stunning East Cliff with wonderful views. The staff there are all so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them.

Excellant grass tennis courts that are very well maintained and easy to access, also reasonably priced. The bowling club is equally as good. The location is simply stunning and we are very lucky to have such a great facility. Best public tennis courts in the area!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Rating: 5 / 5

Stunning place to play golf. Course was in very good condition for the final day of October. As it’s links it drains incredibly well. Played on consecutive days, the first had benign conditions and glorious sun, the second was true links golf with very strong winds. Some very challenging holes but well worth a visit. We did 2×18 holes, breakfast dinner and one night accommodation for just over £200. Brilliant value

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.

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

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

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

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

We live on Cliff Road. During the lockdowns in the Pandemic we were so lucky to be walking with our kids at this beautiful golf course. We've practiced here before but the opportunity to walk here when people don't play is just amazing 👍👍👍

Rating: 4 / 5

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.

Rating: 5 / 5

This was a find. Admittedly we had a voucher but the staff were absolutely fine with that and enjoyed explaining the course. We were obviously newbies to the course and the members whilst playing were v helpful and chatty..which can't be said for many courses. Yes there are shared greens and some of the tees are all at shared..but it's a great course..par 69..not the longest but a few decent par 5's. Greens really hard and fast.

Rating: 5 / 5

Course was in immaculate condition. Nice fairways, well kep greens and beautiful views! For a short course very challenging. Narrow fairways, very windy and well placed bunkers. Recommended

Rating: 5 / 5

Great friendly welcoming club. Played in 10-15 mile hour winds, course was in good condition and played proper links. Got ro say we played the final 9 holes with 2 members Frenchay and Zico. What fun they were. And the guys running the bar outside were so accomandating. 👍

Had a golf lesson, the Pro and staff were so friendly and professional. I need to join up and become a member. Even my daughter had a go.

Playing The Warren course.Always greeted with a smile and politeness from the Pro shop where your tee time ticket is collected and any golf additions you may require. A great course which can forgive the odd way wood drive or iron. Always finish at the club restaurant with a lovely hot coffee/tea in the winter or like today a refreshing bitter shandy.Good food to at very competitive prices.For any golfer a great place to enjoy the well kept course and greens at low cost.Highly Recommended.

Played the Warren at Little Stone Golf Club. Nice tight course, short but challenging. Greens had been spiked but we're in good condition thought water logged in places. No buggies allowed that day. Had a meal in the main club house afterwards. Pork steak with roast potatoes,parsnips, carrots,and red cabbage. Mince pie for afters. Very acceptable.

Rating: 5 / 5

12 of us were met by a welcoming clubhouse (Warren) and a lovely breakfast, what's even better is that they have proper sized mugs for a cup of tea, none of these tiny teacup and saucers all the other courses think golfers want; we don't 😅. The course was in ok condition despite all the recent rain and play flowed nicely despite the course being full.

I played this great golf course yesterday, the 8th June 2024, and in my opinion, the course was in fantastic condition, some really challenging tee shots and some very tricky greens, avoid the bunkers and the rough to keep your score respectable. Highly recommend playing 👌🏻

Excellent golf course. Very smart bar/restaurant. Very cosy with down lighting. So not a lot of natural light inside. The have a substantial outside seating area with fire pit and down heaters.The course layout has changed from 7 years ago.
