Castlerock Golf Club
Castlerock Golf Club is situated in the seaside village of Castlerock, which lies approximately 5 miles due West of the town of Coleraine on the North Coast of Northern Ireland. Castlerock is a fabulous links course set among rolling sand dunes. Its scenic qualities embrace the river Bann flowing out to the Atlantic, and also eye-catching views of Donegal and on a clear day towards Scotland and the Isle of Islay. An ideal retreat in which to play golf.
The view down the coast each way is spectacular with the impressive headland of Inishowen in Donegal to the West. A round here will test every department of a golfers game! The golf is divided between some inland holes along the railway at the start and finish of the round and some true linksland gems in between.
The fourth hole 'Leg of Mutton' is a classical par 3 of 200 yards to a green protected on the right by the railway line, a teasing stream around the left of the green and some strategic bunkering. The two-shot seventh called the 'Armchair' with its plateau green embedded in the surrounding sand hills also merits mention. Should Castlerock be your last port of call you'll have no excuse for not leaving Northern Ireland a contented soul.
