Glen of the Downs
The beauty of Glen of the Downs is hidden in each individual hole . This may not have a beautiful appearance , flowing as it does over an open , bare landscape on a gentle hillside … but Peter McEvoy ’ s design placed the emphasis elsewhere , allowing extensive bunkering and superb green complexes to set the tone . Given its openness it plays almost like a links and there are certainly opportunities to play the ball low into greens . The putting surfaces are excellent , with some big tiers , and you ’ ll find considerably more shape to the course once you ’ re out there playing it . The five par threes may be most memorable of all but this is a day to set the driver loose . Views of mountains , hillsides and sea all day long and a great bar / restaurant to return to .
