Links Of Kent Golf Club & Event Centre

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of golfer will truly enjoy the Links Of Kent, and what's its standout feature?

If you appreciate a course that offers a genuine links-style feel without punishing you relentlessly, you'll love Kent. We found the wide fairways forgiving, but the strategic bunkering and often-present wind demand smart shot-making, making it a fun challenge for all handicaps. You'll definitely appreciate the well-maintained conditions that let you play true links golf.

When is the absolute best time to play Links Of Kent for ideal conditions and fewer crowds?

We always recommend late spring, specifically May or early June, or early fall in September. The weather is typically perfect - not too hot, not too cold - and the course is in peak condition. You'll also find fewer league players and large event bookings during these shoulder seasons, ensuring a more relaxed pace of play.

How do the green fees at Links Of Kent compare to the overall experience, and is it a good value?

We think Links Of Kent offers excellent value for your dollar. While not a budget course, the green fees are very fair for the quality of the layout and the superb conditioning you'll experience. You're paying for a well-run operation with friendly staff and a consistently enjoyable round, which is always worth it in our book.

Are there any specific holes at Links Of Kent that really stand out or present a unique challenge?

Keep an eye out for the par-3 7th hole; it's a beauty with a tricky green guarded by bunkers, demanding precision. We also love the finishing par-5 18th, which offers a risk-reward second shot over water if you're feeling bold, making for a dramatic end to your round. These holes really capture the course's strategic design.

How does the "Event Centre" aspect of Links Of Kent affect the golf experience or course availability?

The "Event Centre" means the clubhouse and parking can get busy, especially on weekends with weddings or corporate functions. We advise checking their event calendar or calling ahead for tee times, particularly if you plan to use the facilities before or after your round. Don't let it deter you - the course itself remains a tranquil escape.
