COUNTY DOWN

Founded in 1927, and almost 100 years old, this Championship parkland course, which meanders through 163 acres of mature woodland, was designed by the famed course architect Harry S. Colt, who in 1929 laid out the plans for the famous Dunluce Links at Royal Portrush Golf Club, host of the 148th Open Championship in 2019. Belvoir Park Golf Club is situated just two miles from Belfast City Centre, and is within easy reach from both Belfast Airports, and easily accessible to the two famous Golf Clubs of Royal Portrush and Royal County Down. Belvoir Park Golf Club boasts a distinguished history having hosted The Irish Open, The Irish PGA, and The Irish Close.

Measuring 6,309 yards, Royal Belfast offers a rewarding challenge for golfers of all skill levels, set against one of the most picturesque backdrops in Ireland. The course emphasises precision over power, with strategically placed bunkers and subtly contoured, lightning-fast greens that demand both skill and strategy. Practice facilities include two dedicated putting greens and a short iron practice range. Royal Belfast is proud to have been recognised as the IGTOA Parkland Golf Course of the Year and has been named Best Parkland Golf Course in Ulster by the Golfer’s Guide to Ireland.

On the 6th March 1914, a group of men led by Dr G Lyttle, met in the Lecture Hall of Malone Presbyterian Church on the corner of Balmoral Avenue and established Balmoral Golf Club. As Europe went into the turmoil of the Great War, a board of trustees acquired 75 acres on lease from Hannah and Teresa Hamill at an initial rental of £150 per annum. Subscriptions were struck at a guinea for gentlemen, half-a-guinea for ladies and ten guineas for life membership. This industrious committee set about raising funds for the development of the course by organising dances, whist drives, bridge but especially during the Great War years, income was raised from tillage.
