Not too far away, yes. AL went a good few years ago now.That's very near where Austin Lodge was, isn't it?
Shame to lose them both.

Had a few happy times there - althought the side-slope on some fairways was truly horrendous.
The only spark of hope is that Lullingstone is/was a Council owned course - and that Senecio was the company managing leisure services for Sevenoaks Council. Hopefully the Council will be able to get in a new operator to run their services - including Lullingstone - for them
I seem to remember that you need one leg longer than the other as no matter where you are, the ball is always above/below your feet.Brilliant. Mini-forum meet when they're up and running?
Note: it's not worth more than a 45 minute drive, so don't all get too excited. It's no Cooden Beach!

Austin Lodge was a nice course, but too many crownd greens for my liking. However, they used the elevations very well.I’d heard a rumour of the AL management looking to open another course when one of the other Kent courses last year closed, would be nice to see a proper management company take it over as I’ve heard the layout is a good test.
On the plus side with it I KT being closed a few weeks it shouldn’t take much work to get it back up to standard.
