Open Fairways are delighted to welcome The Blackwood Golf Centre in Bangor, County Down

A huge welcome to The Blackwood Golf Centre in Bangor, County Down in Northern Ireland. They're now a participating venue of Open Fairways.  

 

Set in beautiful woodland lined with gorse and water features, The Hamilton Course provides spectacular views of the Clandeboye Estate and Helen’s Tower. Each hole is unique, demanding different shapes of shot with water features coming into play on 11 of the 18 holes.  USGA Greens provide challenging slopes and undulations while making the greens a pleasure to putt on.

 

The signature hole, the 166 yard Par 3 12th, is a picturesque yet demanding hole over water, providing a stiff examination of the tee shot. There is a marvellous diversity of wildlife all over the course including our own resident family of swans.
