Fintona Golf Club

Distance from Hotel 9 mile Journey Time 20 mins

Address:		1 Kiln Street, Fintona, County Tyrone, BT78 2BL, Northern Ireland
Tel:		(028) 82841480

		This County Tyrone course will celebrate its centenary in 2004 has often been described as a 'hidden gem'. It was featured in Ronan Rafferty's great Golf Journeys on UTV which showcased six courses in Northern Ireland. Rafferty has rated this as one of the Top 9, 9 hole golf courses in the country, and few locals will argue with that. It measures 6310 yards with par of 72 and a standard scratch of 70 and all 9 holes have twin tees, thus presenting the player with a different puzzle to solve the second time round. A trout stream known locally as 'the quiggery' meanders through the course, intruding on 8 holes in all and to play here without finding the stream might be considered something of a miracle. The trees here are magnificent and complement a picture-postcard setting, which is enjoyed by all that play here. A brand new clubhouse was built in 1997. Club hire is not available, so it is necessary to bring your own clubs. Membership fees vary. Visitors welcome weekdays.

Enniskillen Golf Course

Distance from Hotel 17 mile Journey Time 25 mins

THE COURSE.

Enniskillen Golf Club was founded in 1896 and is situated approximately one mile from Enniskillen town centre, in the heart of the beautiful Fermanagh Lakeland.

The eighteen hole, par 71 parkland course provides a challenge to golfers of all abilities. Mature oak and beech trees, some over 100 years old, line the narrow fairways. The opening "Road Hole" has been described by many as the most intimidating starting hole they have played. Although the opening nine holes have been in existence for only fifteen years, trees and shrubbery are well matured and will cause some golfers the occasional problem.

The fifth green and ninth tee offer spectacular views over the town of Enniskillen and the surrounding countryside. The feature hole of the course is the short par 4 seventh, which dog-legs right around a small lake. A tantalising glimpse of the green will tempt the bigger hitters into "going for it" with their tee shot. Anything other than an arrow straight shot will result in a reload. A new elevated medal tee for this hole is now open for play.

The back nine is mature parkland, bordering the Castlecoole Estate, which is a National Trust Property. The tight fairways of the eleventh, twelfth, sixteenth and seventeenth holes will ensure a memorable score for some. The peacefulness of the surroundings will, however, more than compensate for any bad golf. A warm welcome is assured at the comfortable nineteenth hole.
