Very good course

I would recommend this course.
I wanted to write this review for one reason.
We booked on golf now no problems and got a good deal. Unfortunately we were not aware that the course has strict rules to shut the gates at 9.30 sharp. No where did the booking or before the booking let us know this as it’s summer as thought we could play till we finished which would have been about 10pm. Our game was cut short by 2 holes because of this, but frustrating to be honest.

Little Gem in the Forest

Forestlittle is a challenging course at the best of times but, when your playing on greens that are equal to carpet and rolling just as true it's a very pleasurable challenge, excellent course, hats of to all the staff.

Well worth it at 20 Euros

I booked this deal on GolfNow as I was staying in Howth, I asked if I could find some playing partners and was paired with two of the greatest seniors you'd ever want to meet and play with. Sean is 84 and has been a member for approximately 40 years & John (ex-pro footballer) has been a member for over 20 years so course knowledge and advice was impeccable. This is a lovely old club with tight tree-lined fairways, a few tough doglegs, a challenging layout to say the least. My only complaint is that the greens had been punched and sanded a week earlier so they weren't in excellent condition but I still enjoyed the round as the weather was nice and the company was excellent.

Just Superb!!!

Excellent course, well maintained. The greens were in perfect condition. No long walks from green to tee. Despite having to wait a few times, we got round in just under 4 hours. Will definitely play it again.
