Pedham Place Golf Centre

The Championship Course at Pedham Place Golf Centre occupies gently rolling terrain in Swanley, Kent, positioned within the London commuter belt approximately fifteen miles southeast of central London. Designed by John Fortune, the course serves as the primary layout at this multi-course facility, which caters to a broad range of golfers in the densely populated region between London and the Kent countryside. The routing takes advantage of the natural undulations characteristic of this part of the Weald, with mature woodland defining many holes and providing strategic interest throughout the round. The layout presents a parkland character typical of courses developed in this area during the latter twentieth century, with tree-lined fairways and water features incorporated into the design. The course balances accessibility for club members and visitors while offering sufficient challenge through its length and strategic bunkering. Pedham Place functions as a public-access facility, making it a popular option for golfers seeking a complete eighteen-hole experience without the requirements of private membership. The club's position in Kent places it within a county known for its concentration of golf courses serving Greater London's population. The facility includes practice amenities and clubhouse services that support both casual visitors and regular players. The Championship Course represents the standard parkland golf experience common to this region, designed to accommodate steady play while maintaining the traditional elements of British inland golf.
