Great parkland
Reviewed July 8, 2023
Fota is a long hitter paradise. Very well-kept facility which promises a great day of golf. The weather in Ireland is not the responsibility of the course... Moderately varied and no particular surprises, but very stable parkland. Not a bargain but worth the money. There are other treasures in the area.

Deer Park Course
Played on 5.6.2019, HCP 11
Who expects a links course due to the name "Iceland", will be disappointed. On some tracks, although water comes into play - mostly laterally, rarely frontal - but it is a beautiful, but in no way any special Parkland course. Optically chic, with some impressive trees and a great final hole with peninsula green, chic planting and overlooking the pretty clubhouse.
Apart from the ponds, the course also defends itself with many large but well-playable bunkers.
The greens are very fast, not always easy to read and in very good condition - even the rest of the course is in good condition.
Unfortunately, on more than half of the railways, a motorway / country road casts its weight on the course - and not just a car drives by that. :-( That's pretty annoying.
A cart is not needed - only a few tracks are moderately hilly.
Conclusion: Solid 3 stars - no more and no less. Play time, if you are in the vicinity (and not be frightened by street noise) - extra travel is not worth it. (In the "Golf Bear Ranking": 6 out of 10 points.)

Very well-kept parkland course
Reviewed September 11, 2017
Without question a top facility. Fast greens and very good fairways. For 40 € in the early bird special definitely a bargain. With about 6500 meters of the professional discounts but in wind and rain very difficult to play. Several tee-offs offer an alternative for each player class.

Overrated

Certainly Fota Iceland is a beautiful place, but in Ireland there are much better places Parkland. 2-3 lanes of Deerpark are spectacular, the rest but rather monotonous!
The resort itself is no question, however good and comfortable!

Beautifully landscaped park course, great geplfegt, interesting and challenging holes. Necessarily the Deerpark play. Although the newer nine holes are also nice, but fall against the Deerpark from something because of the beautiful old trees felht

The Deerpark Course is a dream. Very varied and challenging. Extremely well maintained and very fast greens. Clubhouse and pro shop are of the finest
