Carnalea Golf Club

The only bad thing i would about the course is the directions to next tee box. Afew times we got lose. But overall a very good and hard course.

I brought my friend for a round on Sunday 4th September. I had 2 vouchers to use up and so glad I chose Carnalea!

I’ve played the course a few times before and it has definitely grown on me! The condition of the course was absolutely brilliant and I have to say the greens were so smooth and the best I’ve putted on for a long long time! Credit to the green keeping staff for keeping them in such great condition considering how much sunny and dry weather we’ve had.

I look forward to playing it again very soon!

Thanks

Well maintained course and we completed 18 holes in less than 3 hours.

Would recommend

This is a great course. However in my opinion it is badly signposted. Between a couple of different holes. We got lost trying to find a couple of tee boxes when we played as it was a guessing game to which direction we should go! A few simple next tee this way markers would be a good way to fix this issue

Lovely course, well maintained greens lightening fast. Some beautiful views, really enjoyable.

Fantastic course overall. Pace on the greens. Fairways perfect. Bunkers tricky. Tee Boxes top notch. Can Lovely cold pint in the clubhouse after to finish a brilliant day. Highly Recommend!

I’ve played this course a number of times over the last 4 weeks. I’m on holiday and am out mostly on my own. Today two four balls held up my round so much so I walked of after the 10th. Which I couldn’t play due to it being used by kids. The four ball in front played the 10th and I skipped on through to play through on the 11th. Was just about to tee off and the four ball that had been in front kicked off about me playing through. I had been behind them waiting and waiting from the 3rd. I always let single players play through but these guys weren’t playing the etiquette game here. This is only one of 5 or 6 incidents over the last four weeks and I will probably not play this course again this year and stick to Helen’s bay, rockmount and castlereagh hills where people let single players play through.

Challenging front 9. Reminiscent of a links , never on a flat lie. Back nine parkland with nice greens.

Greens are great very fast but excellent condition. Fairways are impeccable also. Rough is absolutely horrendous and doesn't take you to miss the fairway by much very hard to get the ball out of alot of the rough 3 playing partners and me struggled anytime we missed the fairway could do with abit cut back in my personal opinion. Love scenes

Beautiful views over Belfast Lough, this course was well presented. Greens were not consistent however with some having more grass on them than others.

Pace of play was slow with golf etiquette not full adheres to by some members on the course to avoid slow play.

Still a beautiful course and an enjoyable round in the sunshine at Carnalea.

The course now starts on what was previously the 5th hole.. it was in good condition and we really got the weather, play was slow but I've played worse.. there were very few parking spaces and they were extremely tight with most cars over their given white lines, making it virtually impossible to park. I arrived in good tme but the guy in the pro shop answered a phone fall and left me standing waiting on him, and by the time I got to the tee, the next four ball were already standing, warming up and gave no respect to us teeing off... thankfully I'm not easily distracted when playing and still managed to make a tremendous drive up the centre of the fairway, maybe not the case for someone else

It should have been on your web site that you can't hit on fairway but you can drive a buggy round. The ninth hole wasn't playing so that also should be mentioned.

course not in the best condition for this time of year. There was also no information from staff about.one.of the holes closed. We had to rely on other players on the course telling us. Although the cost was.not expensive it was not really value for money.

Played this course hundreds of times, but today I was pretty disgusted. Pay £26 only to be told when I turned up to rent a matt for £10 or pick up ball and play from the rough! Needless to say I did neither as I paid my money and was never told this prior to arriving so was never going to happen. Best hole on course, the 9th was also closed for play. Pretty disgusted in all honesty
