Ditto ditto. And if we could do away with the biblical hailstorms this year that would be good too!
Has anyone actually contacted RCP? We're all saying Monday/Tuesday but I haven't seen that anyone has checked the date or started collecting names?
Last time I played there I think Chrisd sorted the booking and then didn't Smiffy do the return? Chris, I'm happy to pick this one up and give them a call if you like but equally happy (happier, probably) if you want to do it again. As there's a formal meal at RSG the next day I would suggest we just go for a green fee booking at RCP.

Nice one Ben for taking that on although I think that to get a society type rate we may have to have food of some sort thrown in - last time was just ham, egg and chips in the bar without having to change. Maybe Smiffy or Chris can remember?

I'm currently in Canada, will look into Littlestone when I get back.So is it littlestone on Sunday, cinque ports on Monday, and st George's on Tuesday?
If so, all three sound good to me.

The 1st time we went Chris booked for us to eat in the dining room so had to change for our steak and kidney pudding.
When I booked it the 2nd time I had the option of booking to eat in the bar so we didn't have to mess around changing. That's when we had the ham, egg and chips.
They "should" give you the option.
HTH
Rob's correct in that no option to eat in the bar was offered. Initially the price was (I think) £65 for the golf only but they didn't take too much persuasion to include a two course meal in at that price and I thought the food was excellent. The biggest problem was that they sent a list of about 15 dinner choices and we could only pick one main course and one pudding from the list for everyone.
I really ended up just doing everything by phone, they didn't answer emails and kept asking me to send them to different people when I asked if they received them, and even then I still rarely got answers, hence the phone. I ended up booking the day, numbers and first tee time early on and we didn't get asked for a deposit until quite near the time. On the day Mashley sorted out the cash but I know they didn't ask for it on arrival and I think he ended up paying them after we'd all come in.
i think because most are going to be staying in the area we should look at minimal if any food at Cinque Ports as food could well be sourced in the various drinking establishments we may venture into ?
Maybe look for a fry up or roll on arrival ?
No idea what other food options there are in Deal.
Got sent an offer from Princes today £99pp golf, 2 course dinner, bed, breakfast which is a good deal in my opinion so am tempted by that if RCP turns out to be costly. Although Princes not as good as RCP I did enjoy it. However have reserved a room in the Kings Head just in case!
