Characteristics

It is a superb 18-hole parkland course situated on the shores of Lough Ree in the centre of the country bounded on three sides by picturesque Lough Ree. Beautifully designed, the course exploits the natural splendour of its surroundings, affording from its vantage points and from the modern strategically appointed clubhouse panoramic views of the lake and its wooded islands. Its tree-lined fairways and undulating terrain make it a true test of golf.

True Irish Golf Club Feeling

On the second stop of our Ireland golf tour, we were able to play the Athlone Golf Club course, founded in 1892, and we did not regret our choice for a second.

As it is one of the oldest golf clubs in Ireland, the atmosphere on and around the course is different from that of golf courses operated by larger resorts. Here, it is mainly club members who play: young and old, so the course is always lively.

We always felt very welcome and were able to integrate well into the game.

We (as higher handicappers) found the course very varied and not easy, as hardly any fairway is straight or runs in a straight line. There are also plenty of ups and downs (not just on hole 13). In addition, the men's tee box adds a considerable amount of difficulty. That cost us quite a few balls.

The condition of the course was appropriate given the circumstances: the fairways had suffered from the hot, dry days in July. The greens were in good condition and of average speed.

Cute Golf Course

The reception was very friendly. We played on August 11th, 2024 at 11am. The course was well attended. The course has an unusual course, the rest is pleasant but not difficult. The tee shots were OK at most, the greens were blunt and slow. Wide fairways made for stress-free play. The restaurant was full (Sunday). The service was OK, but the espresso was cold. I think the previous reviews are too good.
