Immaculate set up

First round in 4 years so this was a great wee course to begin yet another journey. Immaculately set up, greens in fab condition, played of back tees as a little short otherwise. Glad x4 in front left after 9 as nothing changes it would seem on letting someone through!!!!

Millionaire's Golf

A well maintained beautiful golf course. Even though the course seemed quite busy it appeared very quiet. A pleasure to play, at times we felt like we were the only golfers on the course which I describe as millionaire's Golf.

Lovely course

My second time here and as good as I remembered. The course was in very good condition not least the impressive greens. The bunkers are still out of play (like everywhere) but hopefully all will be back in play soon. Well done to all concerned.

Back on course!

We booked online a couple of days ahead via HotDeals.

The Online service is easy to manage.

We got there shortly before time and were checked in in a friendly and helpful manner.

The course played well bearing in mind the recent Co-vid related problems. They do have a problem with birds & rabbits digging up the turf but this did not spoil our game only the general appearance.

We didn't use the Bar facilities but others did and seemed quite happy.

We would recommend Forest of Galtres.
