The annual December southerns links get together?

[Alex1975]

I am interested if there is room, dates dependent.

Ok all, spoke to Royal Cinque Ports and a meet in December would be £65 and would cover the green fee, bacon bap and coffee on arrival, a two course lunch/hot dinner after. A 50% booking fee is required.

They only allow 3 or 4 balls on Mondays and Thursdays and I would suggest Monday 8th December but if the majority want something different now is the time to say (we cannot book there for the 11th December) all other dates seem ok but would be subject to availability when booking

RCP is a very tough, true links course, for anyone who hasn't played it but is a glorious course and full of history.

Please post your views on this offer with any changes in days/dates and I'll try and come up with the best compromise but understand that the majority will be catered for, so sorry if that doesn't suit.

Sounds good Chris. Anywhere to stay nearby Sunday night ?

Looking at the RCP website it says the maximum h/c is 22, and they ask for certificates. The way I'm playing at the moment theres no guarantee I will get under that in the next few weeks (I'll probably go back up if anything!) so I'll give this one a miss. Thanks anyway, but I don't want to get on everyones nerves by spending 7 hours looking for balls!

Monday 8th works for me. Would probably look to come down on the Sunday evening if there's a cheap hotel / b&b nearby.

It's up to you, for sure it's a tough course but I'd be surprised if they insist on a h/cap certificate, I've certainly never shown one there on my 3 or 4 visits. Just shout if you want adding!

Price is great - just need to check shifts in regards the date

 

[chrisd]

I don't know of any specific hotels/guest houses but Deal and Dover will have loads of accom available in early December I should have thought, and some will certainly cater for golfers as there's 4 golf courses next to each other along that stretch of coastline

A search online will pay dividends I'm sure!

Well if thats the case then why not? they're only golf balls after all

A Monday is fine for me Chris, I would also be looking to stay over on the Sunday night.

There's plenty of choice in Ashford and we could meet for a some grub on the Sunday eve if you're staying down here. Chris, up for that?

 

[PNWokingham]

I am probably up for this but can;t be definite for a while

 

[User20205]

I'm still up for this, I'll stay down with a mate on Sunday :thup:

For sure, but it's still the best part of an hour door to door to Deal but I'd be up for it

No firm numbers have to be given yet Paul, be good if you can make it
