Welcome to Sevenoaks, a nice little town in Kent in the south-east end of London.

Sevenoaks has gone through many changings during its long history, from a tiny market town to the place it’s become today. 

You’ll find some great shopping areas, a great park (Knole Park) in which are the seven oaks mentioned in the town name (along with a few more), and even some theatre and fun dining options! 

However, there are also some great golf courses in the area. And the great thing about golf in Sevenoaks (and wider Kent) is the ground conditions means that the majority of courses are in top shape all year round!
