In Volume 1 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses, Tom Doak published that.

“Thanks to some spectacular coastal dunes, Enniscrone is one of the more popular links in this part of Ireland, and a genuine challenge because of its unkempt ruggedness and heaving landscape. From a commercial perspective, the addition of six new holes in the larger seaside dunes seemed to make perfect sense; yet their addition has changed the character of the course from a place where golfers used to go back, to a place that more people visit once, but never return. The highlight of the course is still Hackett’s back-to-back short fours at the 12^th and 13^th, the former with its target cut into an enormous sand ridge and the latter with a steep fall from tee through to a green set into a hidden dell.”

Enniscrone received a score of 6 out of 10 from Tom Doak, and scores of 5 and 6 from two of his co-authors.
