Belvoir Park Golf Club

4-star: Above average course - well worth a visit.

Est. 1927

Belvoir Park Golf Club: pronounced "Beaver" Park, this is without doubt one of Belfast's best - a very pleasant wooded parkland course, with an incredible variety of mature trees lining the good width fairways.

The terrain is constantly undulating (but not overly tiring), with many small valleys and ridges to be negotiated; several holes start from elevated tees, drop down into a valley, only to turn uphill somewhere around halfway, leaving you an uphill approach shot to an elevated green. The par-70 layout contains many good length par-3s and 4s, as well as the exquisite and heavily bunkered short par-3 8th hole. The back-nine feels a tad tighter than the front, and has a few water ditches to watch out for.

With excellent greens, superb bunkering, top-quality maintenance and picturesque views over Belfast, its no wonder that Belvoir Park is a firm favourite with local and visiting golfers alike.
