    Played it at the start of June.

    Loved it. Great mix of holes.

    Fine course but don't arrive hungry; catering is casual to put it mildly.

    Played there in June with our Society. Course in great condition. If theres a group of you going, ring them and they will have food on. No problem with feeding 40 of us.

    Good to hear. Our threeball asking for coffee before we played at 10 must have taken them by surprise.

    Played Coolattin many times and always treated perfectly.

    All good so it seems

    Thanks for all the feedback. I had heard some 'rumbling' so just checking.

    Cheers

    Played there for the first time two weeks ago and I loved it. Right up my street, old mature lovely maintained parkland stuff with tall trees everywhere. It's really nice. Not only in lovely condition, its a very good course too. Not a boring hole.

    If nothing else, it is worth playing for the garden hole ......... a rare unique gem.

    Yes, that's a lovely hole, very similar hole in New Forest 9th but the one in Coollattin is an upside down saucer green and very hard to hold, need to come from huge height or plenty of spin on tee shot.
    Isn't it great we have a course like this that is relatively unheard of but at the same time is a super place

    It is fantastic, Ireland is a golfer's heaven.

    I often think there is untapped potential for tourism. Not every golfing tourist can or wants to spend big money on the links in the west. And we have all those hidden gems everywhere.

    Edit: That garden hole is lovely. I held the green there, was close even, but didn't make the putt. Felt great all the same.
