Courses

Frequently Asked Questions

Given there are only two courses, is County Leitrim worth a dedicated golf trip?

Absolutely, if you're looking for a relaxed, uncrowded experience rather than a multi-day golf marathon. It's perfect for a tranquil escape where you can play both courses at a leisurely pace without feeling rushed. We recommend combining your rounds with exploring the stunning Lough Allen or the charming local towns.

What's the best time of year to play golf in County Leitrim without getting drenched?

We always aim for late spring to early autumn, specifically May through September, for the best golfing weather. You'll find the courses in their prime condition, and while you can never guarantee sunshine in Ireland, these months offer the driest and mildest conditions for your rounds. Always pack layers- it's Ireland, after all!

Are the golf courses in Leitrim links or parkland, and what kind of challenge should I expect?

You'll be playing parkland golf in Leitrim, offering a different experience from Ireland's famous coastal links. Expect lush, tree-lined fairways and well-maintained greens, often with water features or elevation changes that demand thoughtful shot placement. They're enjoyable, not overly punishing, and perfect for a relaxed round.

Beyond golf, what else should I plan to do in County Leitrim to make the trip worthwhile?

Leitrim is all about its natural beauty and peaceful pace, so embrace it. We highly recommend exploring Lough Allen by kayak or boat, or hiking the scenic trails around Glencar Waterfall. You'll find charming pubs in towns like Carrick-on-Shannon for a proper pint and some local craic after your round.

What's the typical cost for a round of golf in Leitrim, and are there any deals for playing both courses?

Green fees in Leitrim are generally quite reasonable, often ranging from €30-€50 per round, making it an affordable golf stop. While there isn't a formal 'Leitrim Golf Pass' for both courses, it's always worth calling ahead to inquire about any local two-for-one or twilight deals directly with the clubs.
