    Killerig Castle wasn't great when I visited. A rather dull hotel course that sits on a gentle hillside and winds around the building. It has a few interesting holes towards the end. A straightforward challenge.

    Leinster Hills is a bigger adventure, and while the quality is not exactly top tier (neither was Killerig for that matter), there are some entertaining holes and good rises and falls to give it interest. A couple of the greens are impossible if you're on the wrong tier. Definitely a farmland type affair but more than enough to keep you occupied

    Cool, thanks for the reply. I dunno, in those pics the killerig course looks pretty decent? Its my first full golf course like, only been hitting the Par 3, im ready for the big daddys now though :)

    EDIT: And also how long would it take you to get around it roughly, 3.5 to 4 hrs?

    played Leinster hills a few times. I liked it but the hills put a few a my friends off. Its def not boring anyway. Good value for money i think

    Neither are great to be honest but you get what you pay for, be warned though Leinster Hills is a good climb and you will want to be in good form to pull a bag around it.
