Portstewart Golf Club

A very warm welcome to Portstewart Golf Club, founded in 1894 and home to three fine true links golf courses. Few clubs in the British Isles or Ireland can claim to have three courses under their name.

THE OLD COURSE PAR 64, 4,822 YARDS

Where it all began in 1894! The Old Course is an institution in its own right; the front 8 holes are perched along the rocky shore, east of Portstewart town on the Portmore Road heading to Portrush with the back 10 on the landward side. A great wee track especially good for groups, holidaymakers and golfers just starting out. Walk the historic fairways that have been tracked since 1894.

THE STRAND COURSE PAR 71

What can be said of the mighty Strand Course? Dubbed as ‘the sleeping giant’, do you dare to tackle it! It is without doubt one of the very top true links golf courses in Ireland. It easily stands alongside the two Ulster Royals, Portrush and County Down. The brainchild of Willie Park Jr and Des Giffin (in whose honour the 6th hole has been renamed), ably assisted by undulating dunes, the run off bunkers, rolling fairways and tricky manicured greens.

A ‘true test of golf’ is a much overused phrase, but in this case it is a reflection of the variety and ingenuity of the shots required to get round this masterpiece of a golf course.

The views from almost every hole are quite simply, magical. The Atlantic is never very far away and the beauty of the course has to be seen to be believed. It is a treat that will take a very long time, if ever, to fade from the golfers memory. The jewel in the Portstewart crown.

THE RIVERSIDE COURSE PAR 68, 5,725 YARDS

A beautiful riverside Course with holes meandering along the banks of the River Bann.

A great challenge and Course in its own right, the Riverside is a perfect group/society course and also perfect for those who are not up for the mightiness of The Strand on any given day!
