Founded in 1923 and set in the rolling green countryside of Ballyclare, this mature 18 hole parkland course makes good use of the natural features of its landscape, particularly the local river and tree-lined fairways which provide a fabulous setting and demanding challenge.
The course, woven through the Antrim countryside, presents an enjoyable test with lakes in play on three holes for a fabulous setting that all are sure to find accessible. The signature hole is the demanding par 4 third hole “Orpinsmill”, where you are faced with a breathtaking tee shot. Out of bounds lies in wait on the left, opposite two lakes on the right, which lead to a tree-protected green, proving just how entertaining the tumbling parkland of Ballyclare can be. At 6,373 yards, there are plenty of longer holes for the power players to go for broke, while bunkers and avenues of woodland mean considered course management and precision are rightly rewarded. After your round you’ll find the clubhouse provides an inviting and friendly atmosphere with excellent dining facilities for enjoying an array of food and drink options with bar snacks, daily specials and a full A La Carte menu available and a friendly bar in which to settle after your round or even a place to rest your weary head after a day on the golf course.
