hill at the mouth of Belfast Lough in the middle
of the village of Helens Bay.

good test of accurate golf the well maintained
course does not intimidate beginners but low

friendly and organising social activities
including quizzes and snooker. We have a long
tradition of welcoming visitors at the clubhouse
and on the course, whether an individual or a

some challenging holes, balanced with a few
shorter ones. The fairways aren't exactly tight,
but with trees lining each you better be
accurate with your driving. Very reasonable
also. 18 holes 7143 yards S.S.S. 74. Putting
