Royal County Down Golf Club

We enjoyed our annual day to the Irish open, which was in Royal County Down this year. The setting is stunning, and the course is spectacular with beautiful seaside views. As an older couple, the walk was challenging but not unsurmountable. I found the layout by the organisers to be somewhat spectator unfriendly. More viewing areas could have been created. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our day in Royal County Down G C, and I would be privileged to play it at some stage in the near future. 🏒🥇

Regularly ranked number 1 course in the world and you can see why. Wouldn’t recommend paying £400+ but if you can get a GUI rate, open week or play it in winter then it’s a must. Annsley course is also a great 2nd course but again try and get it on a reduced rate through the open week.

Gorgeous course for the Irish Open 2024 - every way you look the views are spectacular. Well organised event.

This place does not disappoint! 100% lives up the hype and deserves the plaudits it gets as a course. Numerous blind shots mean the caddie is a must for anyone playing for the first time. Very knowledgeable and worth the price in saved golf balls alone. The course is magnificent - great vistas and views and despite what was a wet and windy day it did not dampen the spirits. Fairways are kept wonderfully- greens and tight and the run offs are deadly. This course is a must for anyone who is in the area and can get on it. It won’t disappoint.

Such a massive disappointment. Lovely setting but conditions of the course fell well below the standard expected at a venue of this supposed calibre and the cost to play here. The staff put it down to recent weather but having played royal Portrush a few days later which was in pristine condition it doesn’t stack up.

Lovely course and the group said it was excellent and said if they had time the same day they would play another round. Beautiful grounds and caddies were all excellent The food is exceptional in the clubhouse and the staff are also as good. Really is a great example of a well run golf club

The best golf course in the world that somehow lived up to the hype on a very stormy day. If you get the chance - PLAY IT!

You can see why this is number 1 in the UK & Ireland. Blown away from start to finish. Clubhouse Looks stunning, all old features and fittings, everything screams history, pictures of all the greats playing a round there, Tiger, Rory, Jack Nic etc. Staff were so welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was the only thing that could be improved on as the only options were bacon or sausage buttys. Food after the round was brilliant. Changing room and showers top notch. Practice facilities Top notch driving range with callaway chrome soft balls, you also get driven to and from the range 👍 Course Wow. Just wow. The views are insane, the course is incredible, lightning fast greens, perfect tee off areas, fairways are also perfect. But the course layout is sooo good. It's hard to describe but it's literally perfect.
