About this course

Littlestone Golf Club sits on the Romney Marsh coast in Kent, occupying a stretch of classic linksland between the English Channel and the flat marshlands that characterize this southeastern corner of England. The course was laid out in the 1880s by Laidlaw Purves, though the Evans and Lewis names may refer to later modifications or consultants involved in the club's evolution. The links has long been recognized as one of the finer seaside courses in southern England, offering genuine links golf on sandy terrain with the natural undulations and firm turf characteristic of coastal sites. The routing takes advantage of the property's natural features, with holes playing through dunes and alongside the shoreline in the opening and closing stretches, while the middle section moves through slightly flatter terrain. The course presents the traditional challenges of links golf: wind exposure, firm and fast conditions, strategic bunkering, and the need for ground-game shot-making. Several holes run close to the sea wall, and the prevailing winds off the Channel significantly influence play throughout the round. Littlestone has hosted various regional and national amateur competitions over its history and maintains a reputation as a members' club with a traditional links atmosphere. The clubhouse and facilities reflect the club's Victorian-era origins, and the course remains relatively unchanged in character from its early design, preserving the strategic demands and natural beauty that have defined it for well over a century.

Getting there

Most visitors to Littlestone Golf Club arrive via London Gatwick or London City Airport, the latter particularly convenient for those traveling light, followed by a ninety-minute drive southeast through the Kentish countryside toward the Romney Marsh. The journey traces the gradual flattening of the landscape as rolling fields give way to the vast, windswept expanse of the marsh itself, a transition that signals proximity to the Channel coast. As the road narrows and the scent of salt air sharpens, the clubhouse emerges quietly along the shoreline at Littlestone-on-Sea - a low-slung, unassuming sentinel standing watch over one of England's most authentic links experiences, where the sea, sky, and turf converge in timeless simplicity.
