Romney Warren Golf Course lies adjacent to the Championship Links of Littlestone. Littlestone Golf Club was founded in 1888 and the clubhouse was opened in 1901. Historically the Bar, The Stock Exchange, and Parliament were strongly represented at the Club and on one occasion Littlestone was in the unique position of having the Prime Minister of the day (Asquith) and the leader of the Opposition (Balfour) as Captain and President respectively.

Today, the Club provides a warm and friendly welcome to all and the Clubhouse remains essentially in keeping with its original design with the balcony overlooking the course being a major feature. Like Romney Warren, Littlestone is only ever closed for snow, which is a rarity, and temporary tees and greens are never needed. Excellent playing conditions prevail both Summer and Winter. We only have watering on tees and greens, keeping in tune with the environment as the course is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
