Kent, United Kingdom
Walmer & Kingsdown Golf Links is a championship course located on the White Cliffs of Dover in Kent, England. Perched atop these iconic cliffs, the course offers spectacular panoramic views across the English Channel towards France and along the Kent coastline to Ramsgate, with sea vistas from every hole. The layout features a distinctive routing, with cliff-top holes on the outward nine and valley holes on the return journey, creating varied playing conditions and visual interest throughout the round.
The course benefits from a chalk-based substructure that ensures excellent drainage, making it playable year-round despite the coastal location. This technical feature is crucial for maintaining course condition in the challenging seaside environment. The course design takes full advantage of its dramatic clifftop setting, delivering a memorable golfing experience enhanced by the natural landscape and extensive views across the Garden of England countryside inland. The combination of challenging terrain, scenic beauty, and all-year playability makes Walmer & Kingsdown a distinctive destination course on the English coast.
