Beautiful course, well worth it

Great course, providing a good challenge and very well maintained. Love the driving range, putting green and chipping area before the 1st hole.

Good Course

Have played Bunclody GC on numerous occasions now. It's a great challenge with some real tough holes. Par 5's are brilliant. Holes 14, 15, 16, 17 & 18 are a testing finish. Played again June 2023 and was disappointed. A lot areas around the greens are poor, patchy for this time of year. Greens are 100%.

The 17th hole lift was broken. We also hired 1 buggy and were charged €40. This is a bit expensive for having already paid €60 each for green fees. We queried the guy in the Pro- Shop who's attitude was to take it or leave it!

Overall a great course. Some equally great courses in the area with Golf + Buggy deals.

Beautiful course

Beautiful course, friendly staff and excellent facilities/clubhouse for a great rate.

Holes 1-6 and 13-18 the stand out holes with views of the mountains and a stroll by the Slaney before the novelty of having to take an elevator from the 17th to the downhill par 5 18th.

Very Challenging off the whites and greens especially when there's a breeze as it's very rarely down breeze with plenty of uphill holes and slope run offs.

Fo pace of play is very fast only once slow enough as I was stuck behind a few groups of women golfers but that's normal everywhere.
