Uncrowned jewels: 20 golfing gems that won’t charge eye-watering green fees
Kevin Markham selects Ireland’s Top 20 value courses…
4 Portarlington (Parkland)
“There are no changes in elevation here at Portarlington. This is as idyllic as it gets in terms of exertion. Yes, you might be vexed by the trees and the variety of doglegs, but that’s the only exertion required! Mature trees proliferate, especially where the course brushes up against the River Barrow. This is where you’ll find many of the strongest holes (14-17), although the best is the 7th — a par four stretching over 400 metres through a tall, tight avenue of trees. Red squirrels abound. They — the club, not the squirrels — won’t charge you more that €25 for the privilege of playing here”.
