West Kent Golf Club (18 Hole Course)
Parkland Course in Downe, England
Nestled in the Kent countryside between Downe village and Biggin Hill Airport, West Kent Golf Club offers a parkland golf experience shaped by renowned architects Herbert Fowler and Abercromby, J.F. (John Frederick). While the club was established in 1916, the course at its current Downe location came into play in 1925. The layout presents a challenging mix of undulating terrain, featuring mature trees, strategic water hazards, and greens that require a sure putting stroke. It provides a respected test of golf within a pleasant setting.
