Room for Improvement

Foyle is a pleasant course to play and the grounds people work hard to keep it in good condition, However it still has a problem of member players not replacing divits, fixing pitchmarks and using a rake to level sand when coming out of a bunker. This can be frustrating during play. Several of the bunkers could do with more sand. An obvious lack of knowledge of the rules has players spending too long looking for lost ball hence the mark for slow play. Could maybe do with a 'ranger' on the course to keep things moving and players to be on the tee box at the scheduled time.
with more sand

Friendly club

A family run club in which the family put a lot of dedication into keeping the course in super condition.all year round. A friendly atmosphere generally but some players could do with reading the rules of etiquette and use of litter bins.

The driving range is excellent. The automated tee settings with plenty of heights is just what you want at a driving range and goood value for money.
Have yet to play the course but I am hoping to soon.

Course with a View

With views of the Donegal Hills on one side and the Waters of Lough Foyle on the other, Foyle Golf Course is more than a pleasant environment to pass a few hours particularly when the sun is shining and trees are in full bloom, which it has been this past week.

With a 26 bay Driving Range, 9 hole par3 course & beautiful and well kept 18 hole parkland course. As well as footgolf facilities for those who have not fully grasped the love of golf yet! Foyle Golf Centre is a fantastic place to visit and spend time if your looking to play golf in Northern Ireland, situated close to the donegal border amd just five minutes outside of Derry city centre. Would firmly recommend this facility to anybody who enjoys the outdoors and sporting activities.
