Course Reviews
Absolutely stunning piece of historic golfing links. Played on a beautiful sunny day in October, played the Himalayas and Shore, both in excellent condition, Himalayas the easier of the 2 nines but nevertheless a great test of golf. Shore course was very tough in the wind , but absolutely fantastic condition and the greens were superb. Well worth playing and the clubhouse and members were very friendly and welcoming.

Value For Money: Good John Townley October 7, 2011
I was really looking forward to princes having not played links golf before. Unfortunately all the bunkers were declared GUR and as these are a great feature of links courses more than a little annoying. Lots of ground staff working on the course getting ready for the open qualifiers, just made the place look a little tired. Worst of all was the offical who asked us if we could consume our coffee and bacon rolls in seven minutes as he had Oxford and Cambridge universities playing their annual competition and we needed to hurry along as they would catch us.
All in all a poor day Paul Blunden March 30, 2011
Not as challenging or famous as its neighbours - Royal St Georges
and Royal Cinque Ports - Prince's is easier to get a game on
though ! (and cheaper... slightly). Three lots of nine holes
and links golf of the finest tradition. Impossible when the
wind blows to shoot your handicap, almost always some kind of
breeze off the sea which is very close with no protection at
all. Course is in excellent shape, not overly long, Himalaya's
is the easiest 9, if you're straight off the tee. Nice modern
clubhouse. Name not given
