Windy weather

Ignorant members

Spent 11 holes stuck behind 4 members who never once thought to wave a one ball through and at times spent long times on the greens while I was waiting to approach. At 4h30 for my round they played at what must have been 5 hour pace with no consideration for others

Apparent from this the course was in great nick but could risk another near 5 hour round on an otherwide empty course

Nice course with good challenges..

Very decent track with good number of holes, that invite you to take a chance. Risk and reward.. Plenty of water hazards and trees to punish you for missing the fairway or the green..

One of the best!

Well maintained golf course, fairly easy over all but still challenging with few holes. Great value, can not get a better course with this kind of friendly price. Staff in pro shop and bar were very friendly, very good club house and member area. Would like to play again for sure.

Great golf course

This a great golf course!!!

The day I played I guess it was fully booked because it took me & my 2 playing partners about 5 hours to get around.

There was a four ball in front of my group who weren't keeping up with the group in front of them.

Not sure if the group in front of me were new to golf

But they were very slow, 4/5 practice swings before taking shot, marking score cards on the green, not playing ready golf on busy course!!

Besides that, I always really enjoy playing St Margaret's , the course is in fabulous condition.

Infairness, the guy in the clubhouse who took my payment warned us it would be slow , he said we would be about 4 hours 10 minutes.

Superb last hole

Course is in great condition.

A couple of handy par 5s the 8th and 16th but looks like they might be improving the tee boxes in these holes.

18th is great finishing hole just hope your not looking for a birdie to win..

Good course

One of the more enjoyable accessible courses around Dublin, a great layout except for the par 3 5th which is ridiculously unfair, they really should bank against the river. Only the greens and bunkers were a little off what the layout deserves. We played off the black tees, its not too long, but the other 3 par 3's ensure you use your mid irons.
