What the club says: Newmachar Golf Club is home to the Hawkshill and Swailend courses, which were both designed by Dave Thomas. The Hawkshill Course was opened for play in September 1990 and is a Championship Course. The Swailend Course was opened in June 1997. This 6,323 yard, par 72 is constructed on rolling countryside, where some 26,000 trees have been planted, giving an added character to the layout.
A trackman driving range is on site offering practice and warm up facilities with both indoor and outdoor bays, along with a short game chipping area.

Challenging But Scenic

Lovely course, providing various challenges for the average golfer.
Very scenic, with holes over water and through trees.
Played as a visitor as part of a competition and would happily play the course again.
Great facilities and food, with very friendly and helpful staff.

Overrated

Overrated club. Swailend is a better test of golf, but is so open it becomes easy. Hawkshill is over hyped, just play safe of the tee and it's really easy. Hit driver and you risk finding trees and will struggle for par. But with some course management, it's easy. Fairways are often in poor condition. Greens are good. Nice to have a driving range.

The course was in good condition apart from the greens where a lot of grass seed was put down. The driving range was getting revamped but apart from that the course was in good nick. The bar staff were really friendly and the meals were quick and excellent value for money.

The fairways had a few divots that were not replaced but the greens were well kept and fast. The staff were really helpful and friendly. I would definitely play the course again and recommend it to all my golf buddies.
