Tulfarris Golf Club
[Co. Wicklow]
The 18 hole championship golf course was designed by Irelands renowned golf architect, Patrick J. Merrigan. The imaginative use of the natural landscape to blend an exciting design into an excellent golf layout is evident throughout the course.
No two holes are alike. The Tulfarris course is already recognised as one of Irelands top courses having hosted the Irish Seniors Open Championship and Club Professional PGA Championship 2003.
The course is set on three peninsulas overlooking Blessington Lakes. The integrity of the landscape and the environment have been preserved. The Ponding and the wild grasses on the course are an extension of the lakeshore itself.
'The crowning glory of the layout is the attention to detail. Bunkering, contouring, featured stonework and environmentally friendly wetlands are finished to the highest standards’ Dermot Gilleece, Irish Times Golf Journalist
We offer excellent rates for golf societies, corporate days and visiting groups.
Our new spike bar is now open and is the perfect spot for your presentations or prize giving. Brand new shower rooms are open with spacious locker rooms and changing facilities. Group menus, entertainment and private dining rooms can be arranged on your behalf.
