Really impressive

Never been to a golf club and made to feel so welcome.

Top marks for a guy called 'Jim' who introduced the club to us and had abit Craic. Well priced food and beer. A great golf club glad I have played there!

I found the course extremely challenging, but a great walk out! think I managed to find every bunker, And there are some mean 'ol' bunkers.

Scenery was great, greens were great too.

Can not recommend this place enough, Irvine touched a part of my golfing soul.

Amazing course

Just a brilliant course.

Fantastic conditions, excellent greens, amazing views and a very interesting layout. Loads of memorable holes and not a single average/weak one on the whole track.

Members and staff were all very friendly.

10/10 - highly recommended.

Great links course

Really great links course. Not overly long, with a lot of shortish par 4's, and some really quirky holes you have to think your way round. You need to keep it on the fairways, which are quite generous but there's loads of gorse, heather and heavy rough if you're way off line (like I was). The only downside was the weather. About the only day of rain in the last month & we got soaked. Just to also compliment the pro and his staff. Really friendly welcome and gave us plenty of tips how to play the course. I'll definitely be back - this is a real gem!

4 Ball hindered the experience

We had booked a 2 ball through Golf Now as a Fathers Day gift, looking forward to spending some quality time together. We were told upon signing in we would be joined by another 2 guests, as it was something Golf Now usually do according to the pro in the shop. As much as we were happy to play alongside another group, not wanting to cause a fuss, our round took 4.5 hours. The course was very quiet (no groups in front or behind us all day) and I believe we would have finished our round hours before, had we been allowed to play as 2 separate 2 balls. I don’t think this should be something Golf Now can do without contacting the parties beforehand to clear this. Slightly soured what was an otherwise great day of golf (even although it rained the whole way round).

Irvine Bogside

Played the course yesterday . It was fast and fiery on a lovely day with a light breeze.

The greens were like a green carpet , they were very nice to putt on . We arrived early to watch the Wales game on tv before we played and had a spot of lunch in the bar . The food was good and reasonably priced and the staff and members were very friendly . It’s a great course but a tough test , but very enjoyable on a nice day . I will definitely play here again it was very enjoyable .

Great course

Superbly presented course with fantastic greens. Playing on Friday afternoon made for a slow round. A few too many blind holes for my first time playing here. I'm sure if it was my home course I'd learn to love is quirkiness. Will definitely return.

Very Impressed

It said it was links and although it was not right next to the sea it WAS. The welcome in the starters presumably by the Pro was one of the best I have come across - very welcoming as were the members we spoke to. Our first round here, albeit a 2 ball was well under 3.5 hours despite me being in 9-10 bunkers - a record for me. Great value for money.

Quirky and Enjoyable

A fantastic welcome by the pro on arrival, headed out with 3 other visitors and instantly took a shine to this course. Placement is key off the tee and greens are interesting and true throughout the course. I would highly recommend this course to others and look forward to playing it again now I have a better understanding of the blind holes. A really good experience.

Great Layout

Great variation of holes which were both challenging and thought provoking. Requires good club selection to gain best approach shots which only adds to the enjoyment of the course. If you’ve not played here before then it’s an absolute must. Food and staff were also first class.
