Rosapenna Hotel & Golf Links

Massive suite, very large bath/shower room, clean comfortable. Like all hotels the duvet was too warm…que sera. Breakfast was very good, though the 7am start was tight for our 8am tee time, 15 minutes away (St Patricks). (Did not dine at the hotel.)

Fantastic staff. Very helpful

The hotel, the staff, the food and the golf courses were all excellent, we couldn't have asked for anymore.

Very nice stay. The hotel was generally very good. The food in the dining room was of a reasonable standard, but seemed a bit pricey for the quality and for the wine. The leisure facilities were only open for limited times. The afternoon times were 4.30 to 7.30. Seems rather limited compared to most quality hotels.

The hotel staff were excellent- friendly and very helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Very pleasant stay.

Played it twice, Saturday morning in very tough conditions, 25mph wind gusting 40+mph), light rain for much of the round. Spectacular use of the terrain, mounds and hollows on many holes, enormous and multi-sloped green complexes. Superb example of a links.

Played in the worst of Saturday’s weather, 30mph wind, gusting 45mph, into all through the first six, then skipped 10-13 and played in from 14. Hence course was not at all busy. Greens had been tined and dressed, but putted OK, but not as smooth as the other 2 courses just on this visit.

Weather was quite tough, 25mph winds, gusting 35mph. Luckily the course itself was the relatively gentle one of the three, less hilly, few bunkers (though some very tough ones!) and some semi-rough before the very difficult stuff in most places. Greens played very well.

Challenging course in spectacular setting. Much tougher than the other two courses - every hole a challenge once you get past the easy opening par 5.

Wonderful old course with spectacular sea views. Shame about the slow play.

Stunning gold in the raw. Fun, challenging, spectacular.

Newness evident in very poor fairways, slow greens and hut for clubhouse! But layout very good and will be a very good course when it matures.

Fabulous

Great track

Difficult golf course with some great holes and amazing views. Excellent condition.

Excellent golf course with some great holes. Course in excellent condition.

The first 9 particularly were a bit of a joke. Playing from the blue tees it was very difficult to figure out where to hit the ball. Having played Old Tom the day before, it suffered by comparison.

Excellent proper links. Good hole followed good hole. Difficult but fair. Really enjoyed by 8, 10, 19 and 30 handicaps.

What a fantastic course! Wonderful test of golf and fabulous scenery. We were lucky to play it in sunny calm conditions so we clearly haven’t experienced it at its most difficult! Only criticism is that for competent Lady golfers the tees are so far forward it feels like you haven’t quite played the course. I have described the round as slow but we were a two ball out after three balls so that is understandable.

A very enjoyable round of golf on this course. It was slow at times as we were a two ball out after a slow three ball. But dry sunny weather meant it was a pleasure to wait and look at the glorious scenery.
