Where2Golf says:
Kilkea Castle Golf Resort: GOLF COURSE WAS CLOSED IN 2011, and has remained closed thru' end-2016. Check for current status before planning a visit.
[Original Where2Golf description]: Played in the grounds of the impressive 800-year old Kilkea Castle, the golf course exudes a somewhat newer feel than its stately backdrop, and has considerably fewer defences. The layout, which surrounds the castle, is relatively uncomplicated and occupies flattish terrain. Much tree-planting around the course has yet to fully mature. Of the two nine-hole loops, the back-nine is the more testing. An attractive burn (the River Griese) criss-crosses parts of the course, spicing-up at least six of the holes and making the par-4 17th a really formidable proposition. All-in-all a pleasant place to play under the watching towers and turrets of the impressive castle.
