A challenging course with a lot of variety in the way it is set up.
Did struggle on occasion making it from green to tee box as directional signage could have been better. Enjoyed the experience and will play it again.

Hidden Jem.

This course is a hidden Jem. Fabulous lay out.
And four of the best par 3 you'll find. The greens are the protection of the course and always in great condition, Winter or summer.
When you play this course the first time youll can't wait to get back,. The stall in office and on the course are all friendly and down to earth..kind regards. Kevin Fogarty. *****

Brilliant

Played here a few times, need to plot your way around to score well. Can’t bosh the driver all the time.
Great condition always - a credit to the Greenkeeper and his staff.
Staff in the shop couldn’t be more polite and helpful.
Highly recommend.

Great Challenging Course

As a high handicapper I really enjoyed this course. It was very challenging and you really had to put thought into all your shots. Course management is well needed to hit a low score and not being able to use driver or even 3 wood off every tee really adds to the challenge. Will definitely be coming back to play another round.

Amazing course

I hadn't played Rathcore in 5 or 6 years and on my return, it blew me away.
It was in perfect condition and each hole is such a challenge.
Absolutely amazing course

Great value

Great value for the money paid, Course in great shape. You won't be using your driver off every par 4 tee, which I liked. 1 small thing, no distance markers once tee shot has been hit, other than that, fabulous!

Rathcore

Overall course in fair condition, wet under foot and fairways quite boggy. The greens were average quite undulating, it would be a better prospect in summer but will play again. There was a 14 members competition on so there was a hold up from the 16th onwards.
