St Augustine’s Golf Club Kent

St. Augustine’s Golf Club is a private members club that prides itself on having the reputation of being a very warm and welcoming club to both guests and visitors alike.

Situated in the Pegwell Bay area of The Isle of Thanet the Club was established in 1908. St. Augustine’s Golf Links was originally designed by Tom Vardon with some holes adjacent to the sea shore. Unfortunately these holes were prone to flooding and after this land was requisitioned for logistical purposes during the 1st World War the course was reduced in size and redesigned to fit into the remaining land. Today this has resulted in a compact but very popular Golf Course that is well maintained and highly manicured.

The Golf Course is reasonably flat with tight challenging holes and having six par three’s requires a degree of accuracy to score well. Par for the course is 69 and the standard scratch score is 66 from the white tees and 65 from the yellow tees with an overall length of 5,254 yards.

The Club takes its name from the natural fresh water well to the left of the 17th fairway recorded on maps as St. Augustine’s Well and possibly from an Oak Tree no longer in existence which was known as St. Augustine’s Oak.

There are various Society Packages available for you and your Golf Society to choose from. Please telephone the Club direct for details.
