Well worth it at 20 Euros

I booked this deal on GolfNow as I was staying in Howth, I asked if I could find some playing partners and was paired with two of the greatest seniors you'd ever want to meet and play with. Sean is 84 and has been a member for approximately 40 years & John (ex-pro footballer) has been a member for over 20 years so course knowledge and advice was impeccable. This is a lovely old club with tight tree-lined fairways, a few tough doglegs, a challenging layout to say the least. My only complaint is that the greens had been punched and sanded a week earlier so they weren't in excellent condition but I still enjoyed the round as the weather was nice and the company was excellent.

Just Superb!!!

Excellent course, well maintained. The greens were in perfect condition. No long walks from green to tee. Despite having to wait a few times, we got round in just under 4 hours. Will definitely play it again.

Good value for money

Course was in very good condition.The pace of play not great as there was a member's competition on.over all course was in very good order ,some tricky hole's.the front 9 is easier than the back 9. Got a good deal for a 2 ball on golf website.A bit cheaper than booking directly with the golf club.
