Ray Saunders (President Kent County Golf Union)
"The approach to RCPGC gives the visitor no indication of the excitement to come in playing one of the best and most testing golf courses in England.
Always beautifully prepared, it has been the scene of all the important UK amateur championships including the British, the English and the Brabazon Trophy.
The rolling fairways and immaculate greens ensure a wonderful round of golf the end of which leaves the visitor longing to come back for more.
The pleasure continues once back in the Clubhouse with its friendly staff and hospitable members. A days golf at Deal is a reminder of the very best in golfing experience and one that will always remain a memorable occasion."

RCPGC has a flexible policy to suit the requirements of societies, companies, charities or individuals, on most days during the week except on Wednesday mornings.

We will be pleased to discuss any dietary requirements from breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our half way refreshment hut by the 9th green can also be prebooked to ensure that players might enjoy their golf to the full.
Our professional Andrew Reynolds and his team will be pleased to arrange clinics, corporate events, hickory specials or to discuss any other ideas you may have. Buggies, caddies and trolleys may also be hired via the Professional.
