Absolutely lovely

Course is beautiful! Close to city centre and the members were very friendly. Bought us a pint and one loaned me her women's clubs. Steve from the pro shop was the best!

Good

Sometimes with cheaper courses you expect that to be reflected on the course, not this place, it's in immaculate condition. Big fairways and big greens. Lovely little course, great value for money.

An Awesome Outing!

I booked on Golfnow. When I arrived at the course I was greeted by Conner, an enthusiastic guy who checked me in and set me up with a fantastic set of clubsat no charge. Playing single, he pointed me in the direction of the first tee, and off I went.

The parkland course is challenging enough for most golfers, cut fairways are narrow enough to keep you honest.

As this is a 9 hole course, I played the first 9 from the front tees, and the back 9 from the rear tees. Of course, I got caught in the Irish rain and decided to hide under a tree and umbrella for a bit. But the course plays fair, rewards a good approach, and punishes a wayward shot, as it should.

Upon finishing, in the clubhouse I met Ray, a stellar gentleman, took pictures of Conner and the set of clubs, the decided the adjacent bar was the place for me to lick my wounds.

There, I met Steve, Collin, both members and delightful companions, as well as John the Obi-Wan Kinobi of the Guinness tap!

Time spent with comrades after the round is as equally enjoyable as the round itself and creates the flavor and savor of the memories that you carry with you.

What can I say, but thank you all, for such a wonderful day!

Any golfer on a Cruise ship stopping for the day in Belfast should consider a round here.

Nice little 9 hole course

This is a nice course. However, this course obviously has little or no drainage so was absolutely soaking on the day.

Good greens and it is looked after.

Clubhouse and pro shop have excellent staff.

Might have to look at the green fee prices as what they’re asking for is not worth the course conditions on the day.

Winter play

Same problem as a lot of courses this winter, Very muddy. winter greens were located on the fairways and a bit rough.

Will be going back in the summer, very reasonable rates, good layout, and some nice water hazards.

Definitely worth a try, During the Summer.

Brutal conditions

Played today with 2 friends. How this course is open is beyond me .I know the weather has been poor and expect the ground to be soft ,but when u play the ball up the fairway it was plugged it was that soft .a few temporary greens which is normal this time of year but you couldn't even putt on them . Course should not be open when it is that bad .

Great staff, poor course

Lovely staff, poor course.

Lovely staff, asked for change of a fiver to get a trolley in the bar and they gave me £1. Very friendly and welcoming. The course however was very wet and boggy, had rained an hour before I played but drainage was poor, with alot of surface water. Would play again but only on a very dry day.

Terrible condition

Course has a great layout but unless you hit the fairway, you had a 50/50 chance of losing your ball from in being plugged.

No signage between holes, just to let you know which hole had preference or what tier the green was on (which was wrong).

Has been a very wet winter but this was miserable at times and it was a dry day.

Some holes , the only dry walk way was through the rough.
