Kington

Founded in 1925 Kington Golf Club is spectacularly located on Bradnor Hill on the western border of Herefordshire.

The layout of the course is surpassed only by its magnificent setting with visitors enjoying breathtaking views over the surrounding hills including the Brecon Beacons, the Black Mountains, the Malvern Hills and the picteresque marches countryside. Kington has long been renowned for its superb greens which are playable 12 months of the year.
