9th hole from the elevated teeThe 14th greenside bunker16th tee looking down at the 15th

Today was a double header of the Kingsley Club and Lochenheath Golf Club, two very different courses, Kingsley is very much a course in the heathland surrey type courses with superb greens, if you have problems with the flat stick these greens will scare you to death, but they do run true. Surrounded by trees it’s a very tranquil setting and it needs to be as this is a great test of your golf game and one that you will want to play again.

Stand out holes for me were: This like Arcadia Bluffs is another course that is tough to pick stand out holes on because its such a great design and the greens are fantastic. I loved the opening hole, it really does set the mood from its elevated tee, and if you love elevated tees like me, you will enjoy the Kingsley club. The 4th hole and the run of holes from 6th to the 9th are all great driving holes with stunning views from the tees. Then the run of holes from the 14th through to the 18th are all testing and well designed, and again the 18th is another great finishing hole.
