Fortwilliam Golf Club



Formed in 1891, Fortwilliam Golf Club is Belfast’s oldest, and certainly one of its most beloved, golf clubs. Located just off the Antrim Road, easily accessible from the north of the city, the course has a par of 70 spread over around 6,000 yards. Yes, it is a short course, relatively speaking, but it packs plenty of punch. Expect tricky greens and fairways lined with trees that pose substantial hazards to even the most experienced of golfers.

The surrounding scenery is justifiably famous. If you arrive for a round as a visitor, don’t be surprised if you leave Fortwilliam Golf Club a fully paid-up member, such is the unforgettable spectacle of Cave Hill to the west and Belfast Lough to the east. You may find the longstanding members constantly requesting to play through, such is the amount of time you’ll inevitably spend staring at this dramatic backdrop.

Fortwilliam Golf Club has all the facilities you might need for a top day out. The shop carries plenty of high-end equipment and clothing from big brand-names and you can also arrange buggy hire and lessons from the club pro. The clubhouse offers superb views, and you can enjoy them with an extensive menu with separate menus for Saturdays and Sunday lunch. A wide range of bistro meals and snacks are also served. The bar, lounge and dining room are all available to anyone who’s paid their green fees. Book a tee-off time online, and see for yourself why this is such a favourite among golfers in Northern Ireland.
