DoubleTree by Hilton Belfast Templepatrick Golf & Country Club

On the edge of Templepatrick village, about 20 minutes from central Belfast and just a short drive from Belfast International Airport, this hotel pairs an on-site parkland course with a comfortable, full-service base that feels properly countryside rather than city-adjacent. The 18-hole course runs across the historic Castle Upton Estate, with tree-lined fairways, gentle elevation changes and water in play on several holes. This fair test rewards sensible positioning over power and suits mixed-ability groups well. It has also hosted professional and regional events, adding some credibility to the layout. The hotel itself offers spacious rooms, a bar and restaurant suited to relaxed group meals, and a LivingWell health club with pool, gym, sauna and steam room.
