Great value , gorgeous course.

I've played Rathcore a few times now but it's been a while since my last round. Firstly the ladies in the pro shop were so pleasant and accommodating. The course itself was in fantastic condition, well kept tee boxes and fairways and prestine greens. Great value for €20, I'd highly recommend and looking forward to playing Rathcore again soon.
