73rd
Port Fairy links is well worth playing but often over-rated. A good links, not a great one. Some of the reviewers have linked it with Barnbougle and some UK links: too fl...
Warrnambool 01/12/2019
38th
97th
Warrnambool is a very under-rated course. It has arguably the best string of short or shortish par four holes from the third to the eight inclusive. The conditioning in e...

Like other reviewers, there is little to choose between the different courses. By a short head, I preferred the Legend. Perhaps that is so because I played better on it....

Like other reviewers, there is little to choose between the two courses. By a short head, I preferred the Legend. Perhaps that is so because I played better on it. Both c...
Royal Bled (King's) 09/09/2019

95th
After the mild horror for this curmudgeon to be asked for 150 euros well in advance, I was very ready to be sceptical about all aspects of Royal Bled; indeed I felt that...

I enjoyed this course thoroughly and was all the more fit after walking it. Yes, it is strenuous, very scenic and in fine condition. Jim McCann's review is right on the m...

Adamstal was the last course on my twenty-one round tour of Switzerland, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia and Austria in August-September 2019. I played it twice, firstly in p...

It was a great pleasure to stay and play at Zala Springs. Arriving at 6.30pm, the reception was very warm and professional. After a fine dinner with very good service, th...

For the middle handicapper, RCD is not reasonably playable. In fairness, the Club suggests it is for low handicappers. A major criterion for me for a truly top course is...

I loved my cold blustery showering day in late June at Portstewart! It is wonderful course with a stunning front nine. It is very playable for mid-handicappers. On most h...
Castlerock (Mussenden) 28/11/2010

4th
This is a "I shall not bother again" course for me. I played on a windy day - hardly surprising! For me, it has too many very silly holes. The famed "Leg of Mutton" is a...
Royal Portrush (Valley) 28/11/2010
2nd
6th
A gem! This passes the "playability test". It is not easy but very fair. It is a pleasure to walk and play- as good a links as any, and vastly fairer than the silly Castl...

It was a "Soft Day" when I played this gem in June 2010. The course varies greatly with a few very memorable holes. I rate this as a delightful experience and I enjoyed i...

I have had the pleasure of playing Mount Juliet in November 2006 and July 2010. It is a lovely lush parkland, very playable but not easy to score so well. Everything work...
