Great Winter Venue

As a links course it's well known as one of the best courses to play when the weather conditions would make others courses almost unplayable. At any time of the year it presents a strong challenge.

A challenging course with some difficult holes needing accuracy over distance, a nice introduction to anyone wanting to try links golf.

Not widely known, but as good as any links course outside the Royals in Northern Ireland.

Kirkistown is a really good links course and usually worth the hassle you have to go through to get there. When you get through East Belfast and reach Newtownards, you have to negotiate, a winding B road that demands all your concentration. Its 42 miles from my location, Carrickfergus, but it took us 90 minutes to make the trip. The greens had obviously been hollow tined recently and they were bumpy and and impossible to stop your ball, niot a good experience.
