Palmerstown House Estate Golf Club , Co Kildare offers an outstanding golfing experience. A wide range of services and the best facilities are available, to ensure you play to the best of your potential.

Palmerstown House Estate Golf Course is a Challenging 18 Hole golf Course set on 900 acres of parkland with one of the country's only Island Greens.

The challenging course was host to the Irish Region Championship in 2005 and the Irish Seniors Championship in 2007. Designed by Christy O’Connor Jnr, this exceptional course offers golfers the world over an opportunity to compete with some of the best fairways and greens in Ireland. 2024 saw the hosting of the 114th PGA Championship from August 6th to 9th. 

Gowran Park is a wonderful parkland golf course with tree-lined fairways and superb greens complimented by various water hazards, lakes and streams.

The first 3 holes are positioned inside the race track with the first tee beside the winning post. There are no trees on the these holes, however, strategically placed bunkers, lake and a tricky third green make these holes challenging to navigate. The 4th hole is the signature hole on the course – a fantastic hole based on the 13th at Augusta. Playing to 100ft trees in the distance, you have to avoid the tress to the right and the creek to the left, expect to play your second shot over the creek which surrounds the green – a true index 2 hole. Water comes into play on the final three holes of the first half where the climax is the par 3 9th hole under the watchful eye of guests in the clubhouse.

The 10th hole should be a relatively straight forward par 3 with a downhill tee shot so no surprise it’s index 17. However index 1 is lurking on the par 5 12th hole which is a dogleg right with water coming into play off the tee if one cuts its too fine. The par 3 13th hole is the last with water until your approach to the 18th green. However before that the 15th hole awaits, it is arguably the most picturesque hole on the course with no bunkers, no water, just a corridor of fairway caught between 2 rows of 100ft trees.

The 16th hole is the lowest indexed of the par 3’s, birdies are a rarity here. The tee shot is across the race track at the very top of the course to a sloping green surrounded by bunkers. The 18th hole tends to play down wind but at index 5 this is a tough finishing hole in front of the grandstands.

Kilkenny Golf Club is a wonderful 18-hole parkland course just north of Waterford. In combination with the free-draining soil, the new greens allow the golf course to be played year-round.      

The course features a parkland layout, covered with an abundance of trees that come into play along the fairways. Despite being mostly flat, there is some undulation on the greens. The layout has several demanding par-3 holes, but the final four holes, plus the par-4 11th, present the greatest challenges.          

The 10th hole is notable for its scenery. On this tee, golfers will find a 'Fulacht Fiadh,' or an ancient Irish kitchen. This cooking structure, which dates back to the Bronze Age, is comprised of small pieces of stone moulded into horse-shaped mounds situated close to marshy ground. Kilkenny Golf Club's popular but challenging layout is a popular venue for regional play-offs and tournaments.

Bunclody Golf and Fishing Club is situated in 300 acres of breathtaking parklands in the former Hall-Dare Estate on the Carlow – Wexford border. Opened in March 2009, it is already ranked in the top 20 parkland courses in Ireland and was previously voted ‘The Best Hidden Gem in Ireland’.

Designed by Jeff Howes, the Championship course runs over 7000 yards on the banks of the River Slaney and has a diversity of golf holes, rarely seen on one golf course.
