A Nick Faldo design that incorporates all he has experienced as a Champion touring professional and embodies what he believes to be wonderful about the game of golf. The course is set in the middle of the Kent countryside and as the course meanders through you get to experience shades of |
| Augusta, Pine Valley, Royal Melbourne, Carnoustie and Muirfield. The course has been seamlessly melted into its surroundings with lakes, ancient oaks and creeks creating natural protection. Added to that you have the steep riveted pot bunkers and the dog-legs and island greens that ask every golfer about their shape and distance control. |

| Description |
The choice of courses in England is almost endless for the discerning golf visitor. There are mighty seaside links such as those of Royal Liverpool Golf Club at Hoylake,where the Amateur Championship was born and where Bobby Jones won the Open Championship in his historic Grand Slam year of 1930. There is plenty of historic interest in English golf, with the oldest existing course in England and Westward Ho in Devon. The club was formed there in 1864 and today sheep continue to grace the ancient links on this common land. |
