Donaghadee Golf Club

Course was in excellent condition greens were very good nice open play very busy but at lunchtime but that’s probably because we played on a Sunday

After hearing the course was in excellent condition I was surprised not to find it in that way. The greens were very sandy, bumpy and slow. They had been sanded approximately 2 weeks ago so surely the watering system could have assisted in moving the excess. Some tee boxes not cut and little sand in various bunkers. Won’t stop me playing it again but on the day I have to give it an honest review.

Staff very friendly and helpful only thing you could say about course was the Greens must have been done a few days before we went there and were still very sandy.

Apart from that course in excellent order for late March

I really like playing “Port Divine” golf course. Staff and members friendly. My only criticism today is that there was more sand on the greens than in the bunkers. At one time there was more sand on my putter than my sand wedge, plus people not replacing their divots. I know the birds lift some but not that much. Saying that, really enjoyed my day with my brother and can’t wait for the better weather.

Course was in great condition even in the height of winter and after snowfall. Staff always friendly and helpful. Place is always welcoming and the golf is challenging but not too difficult- nice combination of tricky holes and scoreable holes.

Course only had 9 holes open which was a mix of holes, pro shop wasn’t open either to tell us any info so as visitors not great experience.

Golf now let us book 18 holes of golf if we knew the situation that was to be we wouldn’t have booked to play there at all, the two other people in our tee time had also booked and were unaware of the 9 holes in play and only played 9!

When we arrived Hope's were high for a good day, the rain tried to ruin it but luckily only lasted 30 minutes. We were able to complete our round dry with some challenging holes to be negotiated, the greens had been tinned but ran smooth enough, a great day for end of September . Finished off with a refreshing beverage in the clubhouse 19 with friendly staff.

The weather was great and even though the warm weather made the course extremely firm it was a good days golf. I would mention that this is our second time in playing this course and the only negative on both visits was the bar/restaurant facilities. which either didn't seem to be open or there didn't appear to be anyone about which was extremely disappointing. If this issue could be resolved I feel all aspects of the club would be excellent. and it would encourage a lot more visitors to the course!

Like this course a lot. Good value for money for occasional players like myself an playing partners.

Greens in great condition,friendly golfers out on course. Hope to play again soon.
