Founded in 1890, Ballycastle Golf Club is a founder member of the Golf Union of Ireland. The seaside resort of Ballycastle is situated on the Causeway Coast which is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Club lies at the foot of one of the Glens of Antrim, Glenshesk, offering a warm welcome to visitors and a challenging variety of terrain combining both parkland and links holes. The first five parkland holes are bounded by the rivers Margy and Carey and the ancient Bonamargy Abbey is situated alongside the second, third and fourth holes. The outstanding panoramic views of Glenshesk and the North Antrim Coast may force you to take your eye off the ball more often than you would like.
