Pitch and Putt

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the best time of year to play Pitch and Putt in Ireland?

We've played these courses in all seasons, and honestly, late spring through early autumn (May-September) offers the most reliable weather. You'll avoid the chill and enjoy longer daylight, making for a much more pleasant round, especially if you're planning a full day out exploring the area.

What makes the Pitch and Putt courses in Ireland unique compared to others we might have played?

You'll find these Irish courses are often surprisingly challenging, with small, well-guarded greens that demand precision, not just distance. They frequently integrate natural undulations and local flora beautifully, giving them a distinct, rugged charm that's a real treat you won't find everywhere.

How much should we expect to pay for a round of Pitch and Putt in Ireland, and is it good value?

Expect to pay around €8-€12 for a round, which we think is fantastic value for the fun you'll have. You can often rent clubs and balls for a small extra fee, making it incredibly accessible even if you're just passing through and don't have your full kit.

What's a specific highlight or memorable experience we should look forward to at an Irish Pitch and Putt?

We always love the friendly, local atmosphere you'll encounter; don't be surprised if you strike up a conversation with a local while waiting on a tee. The views from some of the elevated tees, especially on a clear day, are often breathtaking and a real bonus to the golf itself.

Any practical advice for someone new to playing Pitch and Putt in Ireland?

We recommend bringing a light rain jacket, even on a sunny day - Irish weather can be wonderfully unpredictable! Also, wear comfortable walking shoes, as you'll be covering a fair bit of ground, and don't forget a few extra balls; those small greens can be surprisingly tricky!
