Great setup
Lovely course, well setup and really enjoyed it for 1st time playing the course. Greatest compliment I can give is that I will be back again to play it again soon.
Good condition for early April
I thought that the course was in good condition for early April. There were some very wet areas in the first 5 holes which are near the river. The rest of the course is more free draining. Greens and bunkers were well maintained.
I was lucky to play on a fairly calm day as most of the course is very exposed to wind.
I was not able to use the single practice net to warm up before my game because of some group using the area near the first tee. They probably should have another net beside the clubhouse.
Hidden gem
Course was in a good condition given that most other courses were closed round the country
Worth the drive
Very friendly , helpful and informative pro shop staff. Explained why we started on 6th tee . No issue . Enjoyed the round , and getting to see a new course . Even though it was about 89 min drive for me.
Stunning views, was dry but very windy on top of hill/dunes but that adds to the challenge . Course good for time of year. Always think every course could add a few extra ‘next tee’ markers for visitors , but was able to find our way OK. was asked a few times for directions by other visitors. Liked the mix of parkland and links. Would like to play again in summer . Only complaint is pricing £30 ok but £5 cheaper if I could have arranged a fourball, bit mean. Club house not open for a beverage after round but understandable on quiet Monday afternoon.
Must try course
Great course and no winter mats even in February. The greens and fairways were in great condition for the time of year and the pro was very friendly.
One of my favourite courses
Great course in great condition given the weather this past few weeks! If you can play well here you will play well anywhere.
Also, great to see a friendly face in Ron, good to catch up with you!
Stay out off the long grass.
It's a very nice and well looked after course .unfortunately on the day we played the greens where being sanded.Also hard to play if you go into long grass. But overall had good day.
Ballycastle GC
Fantastic course and in superb condition. Stunning views and a test for any golfer. Some of the back nine are a bit of a climb but as I said the views are worth it. Got a great deal with Golf Now so well pleased.
Links
Interesting first 4 holes, long, then the links starts very very interesting some great blind holes (unusual for a links course) and risk & reward holes aground very relaxing but the walk isn’t for the faint of heart
