Comments: Huge golf complex with fine facilities... Great value. . . A kind of hypermarket for all your golfing needs... Subtle course... Very busy course - was it worth the effort? ... Don't listen to the snobs, this is a great facility for the high handicapper... Boasts itself as Ireland's largest golf complex... Felt very welcome and enjoyed every minute... Nice views from fairways of so-so course.
