North Berwick (West) 11/10/2019

45th
Lots has been written about North Berwick so I’ll keep this quite brief. It’s all true. It’s my new favourite course and despite struggling in a howling wind, it’s the mo...
Gullane (No.2) 10/10/2019
8th
44th
I played Gullane 3 then 2 in a great 36 hole deal. Gullane 2 is still relatively short but I found it a stern test, there’s a lot of clever bunkering and many a hanging l...
Gullane (No.3) 10/10/2019
21st
Gullane is wild and windy so the short #3 course offers a manageable test when the gusts are at their worst. It has some bland holes, some real fun and memorable ones, an...
Knole Park 03/09/2019
5th
90th
Knole Park is a beautiful public area and I’d long wanted to play there. As a visitor I’ve always gazed longingly over the golf club’s rustic, rather wild charms which lo...
Littlestone (Championship) 05/08/2019
4th
71st
Littlestone’s a fun and testing course but lacks some drama compared to Kent’s other links. There aren’t many dunes, the greens are interesting but not too wild, and bunk...
West Malling (Spitfire) 18/07/2019
30th
West Malling has two short 18s when I think one long course would have been better. The 'Spitfire' is 5200 yards from the yellow tees and has far more bad holes than good...

I feel like St George’s deserves more love. Despite its rating on here it ranks lowly in lists of Open venues, it supposedly has too many unfair bounces and some say it’...
Royal Cinque Ports 12/07/2019
2nd
13th
36th
Everything you’ve heard about Cinque Ports is true. The front nine is scoreable and on the last seven holes it rain bogeys. It’s long and nasty and these days plays even...
The Addington 24/06/2019

35th
83rd
The Addington gets varied reviews these days and I can why. It has a big reputation and it’s relatively expensive, so it’s normal to visit with high hopes.There was a mix...
Crowborough Beacon 23/04/2019
4th
76th
I had high hopes for Crowborough and I wasn’t disappointed. The car park and clubhouse sit atop a large hill with miles of the surrounding countryside in view. Only the 1...
London Club (International) 08/04/2019
10th
It’s an impressive clubhouse at the London GC. Green fees are a little high at times but this includes free balls on their grass range. It’s worth going early to make the...
Hever Castle (Kings & Queens) 28/03/2019
13th
I’d like to give this 4.5 – it’s a fun, dramatic and deceptively long course that is (presumably) always in good condition. My highlight was the par 4 13th which felt mor...
