CLONES GOLF CLUB

Although Golf is not usually associated with Literary & Arts Festivals, the Flat Lake says a big thwacking 'yes please' to Clones Golf Club. It's just Zen dressed up in a load of old Pringle at the end of the day.... and as some old wag once said  "what better way to ruin a good walk ".

Anyway, if it's good enough for Alice Cooper - it's good enough for us.

This convivial little club sports a fiercely competitive 18 hole course where you won't find all the snotty accoutrements that spoil so many clubs around the country. Located just over the Hilton Park wall, why not take a break from the festival and swing a club... or club a fox.

Furthermore, the Flat Lake just couldn't get by without the aid of the golf buggies they lend us each year. So thank you, all you saucy swingers!

Anyway, there are matches scheduled over the festival weekend...so glove up and nip up to the local links.

PLEASE NOTE:  Anyone thinking of using the Golf Club as a free route in this year - THINK AGAIN - I'm afraid you'll have have to get past our team of quad riding security lads, who'll be patrolling right through till sunday evening.
