Mountbellew Golf Club
Mountbellew Golf Club is a mature 18-hole parkland course that’s open to visitors seven days a week. Off the white tees it measures just 5,644 yards, but don’t be fooled – you’ll need to think your way around it. Position is everything here. Keep it in play and you’ll be rewarded with short irons into greens, but take on too much and the course will bite back. The layout keeps things interesting from start to finish. The front nine features a tough mix of par 3s and tight par 4s that can test even low handicappers, while the back nine opens up a little with scoring chances on the par 5s. It’s the perfect balance of challenge and fun, the kind of course you walk off smiling, already planning your next round.

Woodbrook Golf Club
Woodbrook Golf Club was established in 1921, by Sir Stanley Cochrane as his private club. Woodbrook was first affiliated to the Golfing Union of Ireland in 1926. Sir Stanley had previously indulged his enthusiasm for cricket at Woodbrook, a fact that is still reflected in the pavilion-style clubhouse and the cricket bell, which tolled the start and finish of play and now hangs in the bar. In olden days the Dublin-Bray train stopped at the club and in the early days of tournament golf, spectators alighted on the course. Although a flat course, the wind plays a most significant role. When it blows from the North, nine holes are affected, including three out of the last four. When it’s from the South, the tenth plus the par three eleventh, and the par five – 12th, 14th and 16th, all become very difficult long holes. A crosswind from the East affects almost every hole on the course and calls for shot making of the highest calibre. With its configuration of five par threes and five par fives, Woodbrook’s layout is unusual but, in the opinion of those who have played there, it is a championship course in every meaning of the word.
