Greens

The layout of the course is really good and is challenging enough to be enjoyable, the only downside is that the greens were almost unplayable through lack of watering and spoiled the flow of the game, but drought is a rare problem in Ireland. Really good course and well worth a visit

Enjoyable golf by the sea

Really nice course with loads of interesting features, not anyone wanting a easy saunter but a good walk enhanced.

Cold conditions

There were some temporary greens and ice on the ground but by and large the course was very good to play! Also the ground staff were cheerful and friendly we all need to be friendlier and polite to each other in these times!

Half the course closed

Unfortunately only able to play 9 holes and even though we got some money back to play the course in the future it doesn't compensate for the travelling we where offered to go round the 9 holes again but would have had to wait for over an hour as all the slots between the first 9 and our second 9 were booked and the course was observing strict social distancing(rightly so) so like so much this year an unavoidable disappointment!

Only 13 holes open

Unfortunately there were only 13 holes open when we played but as we booked via an on line app we didn't find this out until we arrived! Asked for a refund of part of our green fee but as yet am still waiting for it to arrive in my bank account! The course is fantastic to play in the summer but doesn't drain as quickly as other courses and expect to loss a lot of golf balls due to plugging! But the layout of this course makes it hard to hold a grudge!

Rough

The rough needs cut down a bit more as it can be very difficult to find golfballs the don't stay on the fairway which causes slow play while players search for the golf ball!

Good days almost guaranteed

A good course for visitors and always a pleasant experience, one problem though is that it can be a bit confusing for anyone who isn't playing the course regularly and that is the need for signage to show the way to the next tee box and also the actual tee box number!

Some fairway markers

Lovely course, with lots of interesting turns and dips on the back nine in particular, a few things could help like direction markers, the two people I was out with weren’t familiar with the layout of the fairways and I had to constantly indicate the direction they should be aiming at. Also a lot of bells needed to inform following players that it’s clear to play, for health and safety reasons alone!.

Great value

Very forgiving course with friendly staff and well marked out tee boxes, some temporary greens and tee boxes but something you expect in winter! The greens that are open are in great shape!
