I had heard great things about this course before I played. However these recommendations didnt really come to fruition. Most of the holes are quite basic and greens were in very poor nick, very sandy/grainy.

Played Headfort's new course on 5/4/17. I was surprised by how dry the course was in comparison to other nearby courses where balls are plugging quite badly on the fairway. We had no such issues at Headfort, drainage is obviously superb. The course, as is well known, is one of the finest parkland courses in the country. Every hole presents a unique challenge. Water does come into play on a lot of holes, which I enjoy. Greens are faultless, which is a testament to staff as other courses in the area are still a bit 'wintery' looking. Staff were very friendly and food afterwards in the beautiful clubhouse was delicious and very affordable. Cant speak highly enough of this course, will definitely be back again and again.
