I use to do the same until I found out Beckenham closed. I recently went to Bromley. It's 9 holes and fairly short holes. Not as good Beckenham but I found it the closest with reasonable availability.


I just had a look at Bexley Heath and they don't have any slots in the morning and hardly anything on weekends.

You could try the Orpington Golf Centre. http://www.mytimeactive.co.uk/orpington


Two courses, Cray Valley and Ruxley.


From where you've played before I suggest you try Ruxley. It initially seems to be a very short course (five par threes in the front nine, par 32), but then goes off into the country in the back nine, which is par 37 with only one par three. Not great condition, but some challenging holes, and normally not busy.

I think the Addington area has some good public courses too.


In terms of members clubs, you should define "quite bad" - if you can play to say a 30 handicap or better you would be happily received at Dulwich and Sydenham. You could play without a member during the week and probably less busy times at weekends, but call in advance to check. But is a different standard to Beckenham.

I too miss the convenience and price of Beckenham. Dulwich and Sydenham has fantastic views but you might be better going a little further if you want something a little kinder on the wallet. Mitcham is probably the closest to Beckenham prices that I have found so far.
A bit further out but Pedham Place golf club near Swanley (i'd describe it as an inland links) or Birchwood Park golf club near Ruxley. Both very good. That failing save on travel costs and just play at D&S - twilight golf is a bit cheaper or find a member to play with and the green fees drop to ?30 i think.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
