About the Course
 |
Course Established: 1993
Course Designed by: Christy O' Connor Jnr.
Best Score: N/A
Ryder Cup star, Christy O' Connor Jnr., Course Designer, has created the course to reward the well played shot, however, a stray shot will be treated with the contempt it deserves. With fantastic panoramic views of the Lough this course will thrill any golfer. The par 5 14th stands out as one of the most spectacular new holes in world golf. Set high among the trees above the fairway, with the lake as the backdrop, the hole twists down and around towards the beautiful Killinure Bay.
