Poor staff

Don't book a hot deal on this course because the reception we got is they don't want you there. Late for tee time and tried calling several times on the website number but engaged. Got there and explained and was told no even when there was nobody on the tee for 15 mins while we tried to book another. Pro shop staff seen we booked a hot deal and just said no.....bad form

Value Golf

The course was in reasonable condition however the pace of play was very slow and the greens were very poor. We have played this course several times and this was the first time we were dissatisfied.

Green issues

Lovely course - I've played here before and loved it. Unfortunately the greens are poor at present due to disease. Thankfully the greenkeepers are winning the battle!! When the greens recover the course will be back at its fabulous best

Review

Very nice course with lots of nice scenery. Although the greens were a bit bumpy in places, Headfort is exceptional value for money. Moreover, the atmosphere was extremely friendly and the restaurant is great. Will be back again to play both courses.

Greens

The course was very nice with lots of great scenery and mature trees. The only negative thing I can think of was that the greens were a big bumpy in places but the overall experience was very good and this course is great value for money.
