The Club is situated 29 km north east of Derry City, and just 8km from Moville. Nearby clubs include <a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Redcastle Golf Club\" href=\"http:\/\/www.donegalcottageholidays.com\/blog\/redcastle-golf-club\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Redcastle Golf Club<\/a> (12km) and the internationally renowned <a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Ballyliffin Golf Club\" href=\"http:\/\/www.donegalcottageholidays.com\/blog\/ballyliffin-golf-club\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballyliffin Golf Club\u00a0<\/a> (33km)\r\n\r\nThe golf club has an idyllic seting. On one side it is bordered by Lough Foyle with panoramic views over this majestic lough towards Magilligan Strand and the mountains of North Derry.On the other side there are equally spectacular views towards the Inishowen hills.\r\n\r\nThe club was originally founded in 1892 as a nine hole course. During it's centenary year the course was redesigned by the late Eddie Hackett. This redesign included the addition of a further nine, very challenging holes. The course is now 5269 metres in length with a par of 69, and a SSS of 67 off the competition tees. There are six par three holes and a stream comes into play on three holes.\r\n\r\nVisitors are assured of a warm and friendly welcome and a memorable game golf at Greencastle Golf Club. Even if the golf isn't good you will certainly appreciate the views.\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YILuahOWwiw\r\n\r\n[table id=1
