The course is conveniently located only 4 miles from Belfast city centre and 10 minutes drive from George Best City Airport, making it the ideal location for visitors and local golfers.

As the name suggests its hilly, but a lovely and surprisingly not too busy a course given the proximity to Belfast

Don't be put off by this being a municipal course. It is well maintained and offers some great challenging holes. Please give it a go at least once, you wont be disappointed.

Nice course shame about the winter mats

Very nice course, weather has been wet this last while and the course still played well, greens where really good. Only thing I will say I was disappointed was having to hit every shot off a winter tee, not just on the tee box, on the fairway and in the rough. I understand it's to protect the fairways but it's not for me

Grew a beard

I grew a beard walking from the first hole to the second hole,I was using a push cart so no battery problems. A friend had suggested the hire of a golf buggy but a Land Rover may have done better.
My advice to anyone attempting a sundowner is to inform someone like Mountain Rescue what time your due home.
And my advice to the designer of this golf course is leave the helicopter at home when carrying out work like this.

For a municipal course this wee course will hold its own against many of the overly-priced "private" courses out there. Will suit golfers of all levels.
