Great scenery
Course a bit wet but in great condition. Greens perfect.
Super seaside course
Lovely inoffensive 9 hole course. Not an overly difficult course which is great if you need a bit of confidence. No par 5 but that's just fine. Quite often play this on a Sunday morning which is a nice way to end the weekend.
Fantastic view
Helen’s Bay is well situated, with views over Belfast Lough and the Irish Sea. The course itself isn’t long, and it is definitely hilly. The layout was challenging without being punishing. I played 9 holes, but to play 18 it would be the same course with some holes having different tee boxes. I’d recommend just playing 9. Overall it was a good course, and I will certainly be back when I’m looking to play a quick 9.
Great wee course
Great setting and lovely course. A lot of GUR atm but should get sorted when it fully drys out. Pity its only a 9 hole
Would play again in better condition later in year
Helen’s bay 9 holes
Great wee gem of a course, you have got to play it.🏌️
Superb
A great 9 hole course with dual tee box’s. We tee’d off pretty early so there was some morning dew still on the greens but once the green keepers had that cleared the greens were superb. The fairways were soft in places and a few GUR spots on the first. Defiantly worth the visit for the views alone
Great day's golf on a sunny day
Wonderful views and aspects throughout a course in great condition
Great day again
Second time playing Helen’s bay.
Course had been closed day before due to rain but was still in excellent condition all things considered.
Front 9 we flew round as a 2 ball, back 9 there were a few older golfers who just don’t seem to let anyone through regardless of the course but still a great day out.
Best thing about the course bar a couple tricky long par 4s is definitely the views, if you haven’t played Helen’s bay before- it’s definitely worth a visit.
An enjoyable 9 holes
A straightforward course close to where we were staying and exactly the test my wife as a golfing novice needed .
We were well looked after !
Great track
Super little 9hole. Really well kept. Very friendly staff. Tight and tricky greens, perfect.
Lovely course with spectacular views
Lovely course
Helen Bay
Helen’s Bay was in great condition & considering the amount of rain we’ve had playing conditions we’re excellent, was great value for money
Wasn’t great
Very hilly in places especially the 2nd and 9th! Would’ve helped if there had of been a pro in shop! For a bit of guidance on course layout! No one about and had to help ourselves to cards in an empty pro shop. Not ideal and would not return! Didn’t enjoy Helen’s bay Gc!
Dry golfing day
Not bad condition for this time of year. Stayed dry which was a bonus. 2nd time at Helen's bay and will be back again soon. Views across Belfast lough hard to beat.
Helens bay
Nice course, pretty easy too. Staff where excellent. Food was nice also
