Chart Hills Golf Club


Chart Hills Golf Club is a championship golf club in Biddenden, Kent in England. It is owned by Kings Resorts along with 5 other hotel and golfing venues across the UK.

History

After Paul Gibbons sold his business interests, he created the Leaderboard brand and negotiated the purchase of Chart Hills Golf Club.
Then in 2016, rapidly expanding hotel group, Kings Resorts completed the take over of Chart Hills for an undisclosed fee.
The golf course at Chart Hills was designed by English golf player Nick Faldo and Steve Smyers. They created a big and attractive golf course, with acres of water and sand designed to challenge the very best of golfers. Steve Smyers said: " You feel a great course' it thrills you and sometimes frightens you. But in the end, it will challenge the best in you."
Chart Hills has regularly played host to a number of high-profile golfing events. It is a European Tour Qualifying School venue and has hosted the Ladies European Tour event, the Ladies English Open.
As a result of little to no investment in recent years, Kings Resorts is investing heavily in the golf course and clubhouse facilities in order to bring it back to its former glory.
Chart Hills was once considered to be 33rd in England on the "top 100 golf courses" ranking website.

Chart Hills Classic

On 31 August – 2 September 2000, the club hosted the Kronenbourg 1664 Chart Hills Classic, a 54-hole Ladies European Tour event. The tournament was won by Gina Marie Scott of New Zealand after a playoff with Isabella Maconi of Italy.
