What the club says: Clandeboye Golf Club is a 36 hole inland complex of championship calibre in a setting of rare beauty. Only 12 miles from Belfast, it was created in 1933 by William Renwick Robinson, a local linen merchant with a love of golf and a flair for landscaping. The 6,559 yard Dufferin is the longest course and is now recognised as one of Ireland's great inland golfing experiences. The shorter Ava is a complete contrast. A mere 5755 yards, and often mistakenly called "the wee course".

Great Course well worth playing

A gem of a course which is in great condition. It can be played all year round and is a very good challenge to all levels of golfers.
I would recommend that you should give it a try and you will not be disappointed.

Nice course but very wet

The course itself is excellent and can be challenging, we went on a day that was wet and half of the greens where unplayable which was disappointing. Tho the course pro realised this after are round and offered us a free round on a better day. Which was excellent customer service

Great place

There are two courses on this property and I played the Dufferin course because it was less crowded, members seemed to prefer the Clandeboye course. The Pro was very welcoming and helpful. The course itself has a mixture of challenges on always interesting holes. You can get very interesting bounces if you are unlucky enough to catch the odd outcrop of rock and water is also a feature in places. Course conditions indicated a dedicated, highly professional greenstaff. Worth a look if you are in or near Belfast.

A course with plenty of character

A mature course with plenty of challenges particularly on the front nine. The back nine opens up more but is still a challenge. Greens in great condition but fairways not very lush at the time of playing after a wet and harsh winter.

We were invited by a client and had a fantastic day. course and speed played beautifully so very tricky holes, one par three in particular you could see the green at all despite it being in a dead straight line.
