Accuracy is key to a successful round on the links at Massereene Golf Club, its narrow tree-lined fairways and compact greens ensuring that even the most experienced players will sometimes find themselves in difficulty. Nevertheless, it remains a highly popular course with all levels of golfers, with 18 holes over some 6,600 yards and a par of 72.
As you would expect from such a prestigious club, the facilities are superb. A well-stocked pro shop has everything you could possibly need for a day on the course, and you can also book lessons with the club pro, or a warm-up session on the putting green. After you’re finished, hopefully with an impressive scorecard, head to the 19th hole at the welcoming clubhouse, which has a snug bar, restaurant and lounge all of which make good use of the dazzling panoramic views over the lough.
