Rathsallagh Golf Club  Est. 1996

Here in the historic and peaceful setting of the Rathsallagh Estate, you are greeted at the first hole by fabulous views over surrounding hills and farmland. This opening par-5 leads you down into the lush splendour of the grounds of Rathsallagh House, where wide open grassy spaces and beautiful mature woodland defines the course, and creates a marvellously natural golfing environment. Either side of the tightish fairways are two distinctly different cuts of semi-rough and rough. Balls that land in the former should be found without too much trouble, although you may find it that much harder to "go for the green". The longer rough is more penal, and swallows balls quite readily - definitely worth avoiding if you can. From the very intimidating par-5 6th hole to the par-4 10th water is seriously in play and good course management is essential. From the par-5 11th the easier-going, grassy parkland resumes, with a chance to card some good scores as you progress towards the superb closing hole - a long uphill par-4 leading to Rathsallagh's attractive clubhouse.
