Bad time of the year

The course layout and scenery is lovely but we played a lot of temporary greens . These were extremely small and in really bad condition . This was made more upsetting by looking at the excellent permanent greens .

I would recommend the course but you really need to check out the condition of the course before playing

Lovely golf course.

Played Blainroe GC for the first time today and have to say it's a lovely golf course. It's really well kept with some beautiful hole layouts with dog-legs etc and some stunning views particularly on the back 9 with the 14th being a stunning hole with amazing views. Thought the two par 3's were a bit long at nearly 200 yards each but still great holes. Only negative is that their was a lot of sand on the greens which made them quite slow but condition of the entire course was excellent. Food in the bar was great and the view from the terrace overlooking the small private beach opposite was spectacular as the weather on the day was fantastic it was like playing golf in Spain it was so warm and sunny. Loved every minute of it and had a wonderful day so a big thank you to all at Blainroe GC.

Rounds out top 10 in wicklow

Great for photography

Terrible for tail ends of hurricanes

Lower end of top 10 to play in Wicklow, of which there are not much more than 10.

Tops about 3 others in the county.

Good food, better views, steep green fees at their going rate.

Hidden gem

One of the best links/parkland courses in Ireland.

Greens/Fairways excellent. Great layout inbetween holes and the scenery is amazing.

Staff in pro shop and bar also very friendly and welcoming, very friendly players on course too.

Great pint of Guinness too :)

An absolute bargain for the price my mate and I paid.

Beautiful Blainroe

Really good course. They have completed some upgrade work on 4 holes which aren't perfect yet but will be soon but overall a beautiful course with stunning views in the back 9. Hard test but couldn't recommend highly enough. And staff in bar/restaurant couldn't be nicer and food was excellent.

Amazing

One of the best, if not best courses I've ever played. Fairways and greeñs were immaculate bar the drainage areas on some holes.

Stunning views off the Wicklow coastline.

Unbelievable value.

Will definitely play here again.

Disappointing lack of communication

Arrived on a perfect day with my game in good shape for my standard ( 11 handicap ) . Handed the card to be told that 4 holes were closed but if we wanted to we could play an extra 4 to make up the full 18. What we weren't told was that none of the bunkers were in play and that several of the "open" holes had drainage channels dug and filled with sand and the grass on these fairways hadn't been mowed and was longer than the rough !!! Really only 9/10 holes were playable. We enjoyed what we could play but couldn't help feeling that the lack of comms was a wee bit deliberate as you're hardly going to abandon the round before you begin having travelled to play the course. After round drinks and food in the clubhouse was great quality and good value . I'm sure Blainroe is sublime when fully playable but please don't adopt the " Ryanair " attitude to your visitors because they won't be back and unfortunately will tell others too.

Very poor experience

No indication on either Golfnow or Blainroe as to what condition the course was in before booking.

Only 13 holes open , all bunkers out of play and greens not fully back after drilling and or sanding. I've played this course a number of times and was stunned to see the work in progress. We would not have booked and travelled the 35mins to play on it if we had the right information to hand. Previously on your booking platform such information was freely available , hard to understand how this would happen with regards to 2 major and one minor course adjustments.
