Amazing views
Course is pretty good. High up in the mountains so you get a great view of Dublin. Some of the whole play pretty long. As it was the first time playing the course we had to keep reviewing the map as the holes were a little confusing to follow. As its up the mountains it’s obviously pretty hilly. If fitness is an issues I’d recommend a buggy.
Course was lovely.
Fairways in great condition
Quite hilly which was ok for us but would be challenging for anyone with difficulties walking etc
Some lovely holes and challenging enough for beginners like us.
Was let down by the condition of some of the greens.
3 or 4 where very bad.
Absolute bog
I played this course on Sunday and was absolutely appalled at the condition of the course couldn't distinguish rough from fairway and tee boxes looks like they were abandoned basically what I'm getting at it was just a field with 18 flags. I was told that 6 of the holes were closed on arrival price didn't change. So we headed to the tee to enjoy the game for what it was, hole 1 went well but hamstring gave up going up hole 2 little bit of advice for you bring a 4x4 for the hill climbs.
Disappointing course condition for time of year
Layout is not so bad .some confusing crossovers of fairways . The greens are very disappointing. had not been cut so were extremely slow. very uneven with lots of bumps and hops. so bad you couldnt take putting seriously diuring the round. Fairways daisy lined .grass very long and poor lies in middle of fairway. Nice views of surrounding countryside and dublin however we won't be returning here.
Very enjoyable experience
This course is one for your golf bucket list .
A very enjoyable challenge
Amazing Views, Poor Maintenance
This is a beautiful course with a very fun layout encorporating the beautiful hills of the Dublin mountains. There are amazing views of the whole county. Unfortunately there are some dodgy fairways and some questionable greens. If in better condition would be a top top course.
Dissapointing golf course, poor facilities and course is clearly not looked after
This will be my second time and most likely the last time I return to Slade Valley, pro club are friendly and the food is also very good, however the golf course is badly maintained, very confusing layout, hard to distinguish between fairway and rough, seems to be wild grass everywhere. Green are not bad and probably the best part of the course, there was 2 groups of 4 balls ahead of us, pace was extremely slow and we ended up leaving with 4 holes to play. Views are nice on a few holes but not worth the 30Eur they are asking for especially in winter. Hopefully they will invest in ground keeping but cant see this happening,
Test of Stamina
Slade Valley is a reasonably well laid out golf course with well placed trees dividing the fairways on many of the holes. It's not a long course, however the greens are it's strongest asset. We found it a little too straight forward, but there are a few holes where you do have to think strategically.
The course was in a fair condition with the exception of poorly maintained bunkers. It appeared to us as if no new development work has taken place here in over 20 years.
What we liked most liked: - the greens and the views.
What we disliked most: - the steep fairways.
We will play the course again in the future, but only on a fine day.
Thank you for an enjoyable experience.
Augusta Greens
Played there last weekend and even though the weather wasn't great the golf course was very well presented. I couldn't believe the speed of the Greens, what will they be like in the Summer! Amazing, I'll be back.
Bad staff
Got up to the course after booking a tee time on golf now and was told that I have to pay again if I wanted to play my round of golf and that my booking on golf now wouldn't be charged but I was. Very bad customer service and I will nebmver be back to play the course again.
