My favourite course to play. Physically tough but so worth it. The greens etc. are a credit to the greenkeepers.

Lively greens

If you prefer your greens ironed, on sides of hills and pin placements for pros then this is your course.

Great track, would benefit with an influx of funds .....

Very nice and challenging layout with lots of elevation changes. Fairways in good condition, greens look great but slow. Bunkers need sand and manicurist badly. Layout of course would have been nice on scorecard, especially if you don't know the course, No driving range, small putting area, would love to see some money invested to make it appealing and landscaped. Nice course, worth the money, just don't expect Augusta or its poorer cousin.

The recent deluge of rain sadly made much of front 9 a bog

Played many times. It can get wet especially in the winter on the newer holes. Sadly the rains and a recent deluge meant much of the new holes were too wet to enjoy. Greens were still very good. I’d bought 3 friends to play and the experience will make it tough to get them to go again. Members and staff always friendly.

Greens unplayable

I do like playing here, however it is hard work as you are walking up and down the side of a hill and unless you use a cart it’ll be tough,

The greens this time round where ironed to an inch of their lives, unplayable. If fact all was missing was a windmill and clown face, crazy golf. .

Stunning course

Played castlecomer course for the first time as I was in kilkenny with friends, it was great value for money(€22) for early tee off time, firstly the course is stunning, it's a very playable course and forgiving for high handicap players like myself, had my best score at this course so far, I would absolutely recommend this course for anyone.

Nice

Nice course in the Kilkenny area. Well worth the money. Course superintendent very nice and helpful in explaining course setup. If you walk it is very hilly and will tax you physically. Would love to play it again on our next trip.

Good Value for Money

Well maintained course for the price, the view from the 10th tee box is spectacular. Only negative is the poor signage between holes.
