What the club says: Founded in 1894 and redesigned by Willie Park jnr in the 1920’s this championship links course received its greatest makeover with the purchase of land known as “Thistly Hollow” in 1981. This enabled the club to build a stunning new seven holes through towering dunes and fabulous and natural links land. Designed by local school teacher Des Giffin the Strand Course is the jewel in the Portstewart portfolio.

Undoubtedly a great course particularly over the first few holes that weave through the dunes. Like all links courses you have to pay for the privilege and accept it's going to be busy. But it's a slick operation and marshalls keep everybody moving. The clubhouse and proshop match the course in expectation and I can't imagine anybody going home without having had a good day's golf.

The course is really beautiful, with great views of the surroundings. The greens are well-maintained and the fairways are challenging but fair. I had a great time playing here, and I would definitely recommend it. The course is world class.

Portstewart Old Course WOW
What a little gem. £10 per player, in cracking condition, and apart from the 6th, which is straight uphill, a fantastic little course to play. No par 5s, no bunkers, but still great to play. A great break from the BIG courses and BIG prices around the area.(Round played: May 2019 - Score: 70 Handicap: )

Easily one of the best courses in the world
I've played many of the best, but this one far exceeded expectation (which was high). Much as I love Royal Portrush, this is better, it's worth coming here just to play the 1st 2 holes only. Incredible landscapes, elevation changes, hard but fair. Seriously friendly people(Round played: Jun 2018 - Score: 79 Handicap: 4.5)
