The course was all and more of what I was led to believe from reading the on-line hype. I can say that it was the highlight of my trip to Ireland. The excitement felt on the first lasted the entire day, there wasn't a hole that disappointed. It was in great shape and the caddy (Gerald) made the day. The old course required all sorts of shots and demanded a solid putter.

From the welcome at the club house to the final putt we were made to feel like a member. The weather was windy and rained off and on but that was the true links course feel we were looking for. It was in great condition and was fun to play. Even for a short course you get a chance to use every club in the bag.

It is an absolute beautiful setting. The greens were in great condition but very very slow. There was a temporary green in use and one hole closed. The hole that was used (17b) was in terrible condition. Not very good value for the money. We were told that the course is under reconstruction, only after we arrived on the first tee with the starter. There are many more options in the area to enjoy. I spoke to the pro afterwards and received a discount. This course is not worth the cost even with the discount we received. Certainly expected more from a Trump course.

We were very pleased with the staff, pace of play and condition of the course. The starter was very pleasant and willing to give tips about the greens.
