The best course we played. Great clubhouse and well organised reception. Beautiful setting along a valley with good landscaping and well maintained throughout. Some thought provoking holes that required good course management. Good fairways with lots of trees and rough but bunkers were GUR because of previous rainfall. Greens were in good condition, fast , yet easy to read.

Played with a member whom was very helpful and advised of best direction and course management. Very good club, staff could be a little more helpful, Golf buggy optional as the course isn't that hilly , apart from 2 times. I was disappointed with the pace of play as the fairways are quite narrow, with bunkers in various places to making this a thinking man/woman's course. However Secret valley is its worst enemy as it allows many societies and tourists on the course. When i plaed there was a slow 4 ball ahead and ahead of them a very slow society. The starter could of acted as a marshall again requesting these groups to play quicker, Even the temp starter could have doubled up. Overall, had a lovely round but would prefer to play early next time. I had to ask for a towel for the showers, limited visitor areas and locked lockers

Again, let down by YGT in a major way !!!! Was told two weeks before travel that “the course had no buggies” but also that they hadn’t booked our Tee times for 11am so we had been given three times from 13.50 onwards. Once again, upon booking in Jan 2024, the stipulation was 10 travellers, made up of 1x 4ball and 2x 3balls with buggies to suit. We arrived at the course, paid for 6 buggies that were readily available, only to be told that the dispute over Tee times and buggies with YGT had been over costs - hence bumping our group on both !!! The last 2 groups finished in the pick dark - which I can provide photographs of if necessary

Secret Valley is a delight. Some beautiful holes and wonderful views. The course was in very good condition, fairways and greens amazing. Greens run at a better speed than Aphrodite (ie, slightly slower) buy the course is much tighter. I would recommend a buggy here as we walked the first time and there are a few really hilly bits. We enjoyed it more second time when we had the buggy. Off the yellows, the course is short but very challenging.

Absolutely beautiful golf course. Playable, but challenging for us, which was just what we would want. Fairways were all slitted, as it is obviously “that time of year” but the grass coverage was still excellent so it did not spoil the experience at all - unlike Minthis. Greens very good. Would definitely love to play again. However, PLEASE, PLEASE - as with Minthis - do advise your clients to book a buggy - again we had only booked one, with 2 electric trolleys - we were lucky that they managed to find one for us at the last minute. Long walks and quite hilly.

Worth playing but is expensive when compared to courses in similar price range. Course runs along a steep valley with front 9 going out and back 9 returning to clubhouse. The front 9 is tighter and requires more precise placement of shots and there several elevated tees throughout the course. Greens are in fair condition, although there are a lot of weeds. Some variation in greens layout, some undulating, whilst others have more subtle borrows. Course is in good condition with very acceptable tee boxes, fairways and bunkers. There are toilets every 4 holes and a good halfway house, but only take cash. This is a walkable course, and they have a lot of trolleys for rent. If you want a buggy (€39), you will need to reserve one at busier times of the year. Most groups are in 4 ball and the round took 4 1/2 hours, with a 10 min break at halfway house. Large clubhouse with excellent facilities.
