Played Beaufort a few years ago while staying in Kerry. Also played Ring of Kerry, Kenmare and Parknasilla.

Beaufort was probably the best surprise of the trip. Value for money is unbeatable. club house is basic but welcome was nice and the locals very friendly. course was pretty much empty

The course isnt a classic but very enjoyable. Greens are nice and run true. Fairways are fine and the rough isnt patchy. the ground is fairly flat so design must have been hard to create an impressive course.

Front nine goes away from the club house and then returns with the back nine looping back to the club house. the par 3 (hole no. i've forgotten but probably around 13 or 14) with the castle in back ground is the best hole.

Would i rush back? no. but when i go back to Kerry next year (like all summers) i will try and play along with a few other courses. This course is terrific value for money, and very welcoming.
