Consider Kenley.
Only a week day club. So you need time off in the week.
Gliding is not turn up, fly and go home, so be prepared to spend at least half a day and enjoy the club activities.
If you are in reach of the Dartford Crossing only 20-25 mins along the M25.
Gliding does not normally start before 10.30 AM so you travel outside peak traffic hours.
Very cheap - winch launch only £7, 35p per min flying fees, instruction free.
You learn a lot very quickly.
A good days flying can be had for £30 to £35 with 5 launches.
Buying a trial lesson from the club gives a 3 month membership allowing you to fly at club rates.
