Lullingstone Park Golf Club

Like other reviews the course is set amongst the gentle slopes and valleys of some lovely Kent countryside. Quite exposed in places but bracing at the same time. This course is a real test for your driving skills as nearly all the par 4’s will need 240+ to have a chance of of reaching the greens with your irons, or like me having to reach into the bag to use a hybrid and still not quite reaching, which all adds up. In fairness my putting distance went awry but definitely not helped by the very poor greens - very bobbly all over!
This time of year (mid November) the light disappears by 3.45 so you will have to contend with the vast Saturday crowd that also want to get around - suspect quite pleasant for a mid week game.
Would I come back again - yes. This course is a toughy (if like me you’re still learning the game) but will reward the good fairway hitter. No real blind holes which is a little bit of a shame as it sets apart the long hitters from those that are a bit more wiley with the shorter clubs.
Very windy narrow roads to get there so be careful. Clubhouse was OK. Nice breakfast.

Really enjoyed playing here, though it was helped by glorious weather, and the fact tees shots were running on well. Greens good, and plenty of sand in bunkers. Only slight negative was the clubhouse was a bit dated and tired, but there was scaffolding around most of it, so maybe it was in the throws of being refurbished? Look forward to playing it again, though some of the blind bends, and narrow lanes to get there are a bit hairy, so beware!

Situated at the end of a twisty, narrow track (with passing points) take care getting to this course. Once arrived you will find adequate car parking. There is a spike bar - so it is OK to change in the car park and bring your stuff down to the neatly appointed clubhouse.

Staff welcoming and food was good, well prepared and served nicely.

This is a well maintained parkland - with what seems like vast open spaces and like some other Kent-courses, lots of side hill elevations. Whilst there aren't too many noteworthy holes the bonus here is that there are few if any 'blind holes' what you see is what you get - and the scenery is quite pretty too, not many trees around and a lot of the holes leave you exposed to the wind... Greens were well kept but a bit bobbly...

Not too difficult to walk this course - although it might be nicer without wind/rain.

Lullingstone is a very open course with lots of sloping fairways. The greens were quite poor but the rest of the course was good. It has a well stocked pro shop but I didn't notice a driving range. The breakfast was really nice and the staff were really friendly. I will play this course again

For a public course this is pretty well maintained. But that's not a good reason to spend an hour in traffic around the M25 getting there.

But there are good reasons for doing so: the views; the incredibly spacious layout; the wide, wide fairways.

It's a long course - well over 6,200 yards from the yellow tees including several 400+ yard par 4s and still only par 70. So it's quite a challenging distance which is just as well because it's almost as broad as it is long. If your tee shot misses the fairway you might be in the next county.

It's very hilly in parts and the views are impressive.

If you want breakfast order at least an hour before your tee time and remind them to cook it every 10 minutes.

Lullingstone park very open fairways so wont cause much trouble, but lots of slopes on fairways, views superb,greens fairly good a tad slow but this could be due to the rain, all in all a must play course

Paying £18.50 to play on a municipal course I didn't expect such well planned holes in such an open space with such nice greens.

There wasn't a single hole that didn't present a challenge of some description and all the greens were in great condition bar the 18th which seemed to be recovering (quite well) from a set of tractor tracks!

Apart from one greenside bunker on the stroke index 1 hole that looked like a large wild animal had been partying inside it the whole course was in great condition from tee to green.

The slight difficulty I found in locating the course was reflected in how remote it felt which is amazing considering the proximity of the M25!

This is the first time I have played 18 and I really enjoyed the challenge. Lots of contours and to think about. Stay straight and you can score well. Greens were good considering time of year. There were one or two temporaries and mats, which is always a disappointment, but any game of golf in late December is a result.

Nice course, with some interesting holes. Excellent drainage as the course was in very good condition. Will defiantly play here again.

After negotiating the winding roads to get there what a beauty.The first hole a straight forward par 4 and you think yea its ok.Then you walk through the wood and the course opens up.Runs around a valley so you dont really run up and down holes.Long par 4"s,well positioned bunkers,very wispy rough.Overall i liked this course would definetley come and play again,Also the breakfast was good to.

So close to M25 but only thing we could hear was occasional roar of races at Brand's Hatch.
Course with character, holes nicely spread out with different challenges making golfer think about each shot.
Loved it, especially chipping in at par 3 5th for 2nd Birdie of SES season :-)

Played here on a bright spring day and enjoyed the course alot. Not overly long, it does however feel long due to its continuous undulation. Cut into a valley, it also has some great views. My only complaint would be the greens are little fluffy in places but they were flat and true, so nothing some good dry weather and a decent cut won't fix. Some friendly Pro shop staff too. Which all in all means I'll be going back soon!

Clubhouse good, nice breakfast, £4.50 for fry up, that includes coffee/tea.
Course not bad in difficult conditions, very frosty so greens were very diificult to play, fairways not bad in light of the conditions, would be great in the summer.
