Worth the money....and the travel

Not the longest course you'll ever play but a very fair test of golf. Set in stunning surroundings you will enjoy every minute of your round here. Course was immaculate and the greens in particular. Highly recommend you go and play here.

Championship course for peanuts

One of the best courses for miles around. Paid €20 which is peanuts for such a high standard course. It was very busy on our date, course was full so took over 4 hours, but nothing we can do, gave us time to stop and take some more photos!

Superb course but blind shots

Played in October, course was very dry and looked great considering lots of recent heavy rain. Lack of map on the scorecard was a real let down. Lots of water, burrens, dog leg shots so you really needed some hole layouts. Nothing on the tees either, hole markers were quite hard to make out.

Lucky club members

Both the new course and old course are lovely courses and unbelievably different considering their proximity. Course was very well maintained and greens were the best quality I've played on in a few years. Definitely hoping to play again.

A great challenging course

The course was in great condition, fairways and rough all cut perfectly. The greens were in ideal, however a few had some bad damage which didn’t look like it was being looked after. On the most part the course was well worth playing with some lovely par 3s, and long par 4s.
