Dreadful Course

Worse kept course I’ve ever played, don’t think they own a lawnmower, they rely on the herd of deer that wander the course, to cut the grass!

Dreadful course

Great potential but obviously the staff and greenkeeper hate their job..
Worst condition I’ve ever seen a golf course in…grass is randomly cut in all directions, if you’re in the fairway you could have a bare lie or a fluffy lie, ridiculous!

Disgraceful!

What an absolute dump! Got a special offer of €9.99 on GolfNow, still too much for this dump! Worse course I’ve ever played! How they’ve let a beautiful 9 hole hole parkland course and let it go completely, from teebox to green is a crying shame. Whoever runs Stepaside Golf Club now should be ashamed of themselves!

Great for a quick 9 holes

Nothing fancy but it's only €15. Great for a quick round if not to busy.

Poor condition

Greens were like fairways, fairways likes rough. Tee boxes like rough. Lots of land wasted. Potential for longer, more or improvement of holes.

Sad

I played this course 20 years ago. It was a great course . I was shock to see how bad the conditions and how much it has being neglected. The tee Box's and green's.Were so bad. The fareway was so wet our balls were disappeared.

This place would make you give up golf

I lasted for 6 holes here before I'd had enough and walked off. As others have said, there's decent par 3 courses nearby, or the driving range across the road. For any beginners thinking this is an easy intro to a full length course, please don't. It would put you off the sport of golf altogether.

Totally agree. Poor Eddie Hackett must be rolling in his grave. This was a lovely little course but has been neglected and vandalised by DLR. Disgrace

Greens that don’t exist

Horrible course layout, with fairways cut the same as rough and greens. Lots of closed greens and horrible condition.
Water was everywhere while drainage was assured.

For this money just go to the opposite side of street to the stepaside golf center which is not pretending to be better.

Don't bother

Stay away . Greens are worse than the tee boxes. In fact .there are no greens . For the money you'd be better going to the driving range . And the fella behind the counter was as friendly as cancer .... Enough said
