Course very well maintained. Holes 10,11 & 12 have most unusual characteristics. Extremely hilly at this point. Good shots on these holes can be severely punished because of tough rough & drains which are not obvious if playing the course for the first time Probably better to play irons from tee go safety. Overall however it is a lovely course to play.

Skibbereen scrambler!
It is still early in the season and this course gets exposed to harsh weather conditions, from the Atlantic, so no surprise to see sandy greens and soft fairways in places.
