Golf
There are 15 golf courses within 30 minutes' drive of Canterbury and we can help you with the arrangements. The most famous of these is Royal St George's, where the Open Championship has been held four times in the last 30 years, the last time in 2003. A round there will cost you £130 and you must have a handicap of less than 18! The neighbouring Prince's and Royal Cinque Ports courses are also open to experienced golfers who want to play a challenging links (seaside) course.
The following are parkland courses. We have good contacts with them and can arrange for you to play a round there - we can also arrange tailor made English and Golf combination programmes. The green fees detailed below are a guideline only to give you an idea of costs. Please contact us, or the clubs directly (website links are provided) for up to date green fees.
