Galgorm
Castle Golf Club is an exciting mixture of the new and the old.
This 18 hole, 6736 yards par 72 Championship course is set in
220 acres of beautiful, mature parkland located in the heart of
County Antrim. It is overlooked by Galgorm Castle, which was built
in 1618 by Sir Faithful Fortescue.
From
the outset it has received wonderful reviews from both golf writers
and players, rapidly building up a reputation as one of the finest
inland courses in Ireland.
The
course has been built in the estate grounds of Galgorm Castle,
a site of great historical interest and one of the finest examples
of Jacobean architecture in Ireland.
No
expense has been spared in producing a course to meet the most
exacting standards of design and construction. All greens and
tees are built to USGA specification. Full use has been made of
the natural features available, which include five lakes and two
rivers, the Maine and the Braid, one of which provides a magnificent
oxbow.
With
the backdrops of the Castle and the ancient Irish fort of the
MacQuillan clan, there is no more inspiring setting for your golfing
requirements.
The
course is within half an hours drive of Belfast, the International
Airport and the ferry port at Larne. Equally close at hand are
attractions such as the Giants Causeway and the world famous Glens
of Antrim making Galgorm Castle the ideal base from which to explore
the delights of Northern Ireland.
Come and experience the pleasures of a round of golf at Galgorm
Castle - a warm Irish welcome awaits you on what we are sure will
be a memorable visit.
