North Foreland Golf Club is a members' golf club, in Kent. The club was first formed in 1903.
North Foreland Golf Club, established in 1903 by Lord Avebury and William Capel Slaughter, was expanded to 18 holes shortly after its founding with the involvement of Alfred Charles William Harmsworth (later Lord Northcliffe), who significantly developed the course. The course features the North Foreland Lighthouse, a striking landmark that has become an emblem of the club, and has witnessed the landscape's transformation, including the construction of sand bunkers and tennis courts, and alteration of holes to enhance gameplay.
Detailed history including the Club's fluctuating fortunes, from thriving periods to facing bankruptcy during war times, are chronicled in the book "North Foreland Golf Club founded 1903 - A celebration of over 100 years of golf at Kingsgate in Kent". The club is linked to significant golfing history, with Abe Mitchell, a celebrated golfing professional appointed by Lord Northcliffe, who won the British Match Play Championship three times, and later, his association with Samuel Ryder led to the creation of the Ryder Cup, with Mitchell's figure topping the trophy.
Green fees for the Main Course range from £45 to £75 depending on the day of the week and the season. For the most accurate pricing and availability, booking tee times online is recommended.
