Athenry
A strong country parkland moving easily between the trees and into a woodland setting for several holes . This is country golf at its finest , with good maintenance , nice flourishes and one enjoyable hole after another .
The 1st hole skirts a fairy ring while the 4th includes a woody dell . The closing holes are lost in pine trees that create a moody finish but this is where the strongest holes await . There are no elevation changes so it is left to the trees and gently curling fairways to challenge you while greens offer their own surprises .
The course can play short so be sure to play it from the back tees for the full experience – 5,859 metres , par 70 . A comfortable clubhouse awaits your return .

The par threes on 3 and 12 form a perfect pair . Side by side and resting next to a wood of broken trees .
Editor ’ s Tip
Not getting too comfortable with the sweet , lazy pace of the course .
