Mount Wolseley Golf & Country Club

“This is an incredibly beautiful stretch of land where the addition of water at seven locations, and an expansive tree planting programme will add to the challenge of a round of golf here at any time of year”. Christy O’ Connor Junior

Once the ancestral home of Frederick York Wolseley who pioneered the Wolseley Car and set against the backdrop of the haunting splendour of the Mountains of East Carlow and Wicklow, this course designed by Christy O’ Connor Junior will offer a formidable challenge to any golfer with its rich population of mature trees, lakes and rolling terrain. There are no easy holes, with wide landing areas the only concession to demanding approach shots to almost every green. A round of golf at Mount Wolseley is always a treat to remember for golfers who enjoy a challenging and exciting game, in what is a memorable and historic location.

Borris Golf Club

In the south of the county the 9-hole course at Borris commands panoramic views of the neighbouring countryside with Mount Leinster and the Blackstairs mountains to the east, and the Barrow Valley to the west. This parkland course is maintained to a very high standard with a modern, automatic watering system and the texture of the greens compare favourably with the best. It would be difficult to find a course in a more picturesque setting, with the stately McMurrough Kavanagh family seat in the background.
