Forming part of a magnificent 300-acre estate, including 50 acres of lakes, our highly acclaimed 18-hole championship course is sensitively wrapped around the lakes and the drumlins of the County Cavan landscape. The course presents a wonderful challenge and the devilishly tricky greens present a searching examination of accurate approach play, which adds to the enjoyment factor. With a variety of tee options on each hole, the golf course is a suitable challenge for golfers of all abilities
Whilst every hole on the golf course is a challenge, the par 5 13th is the signature hole on the golf course with its fairway hugging the shores of one of the course's natural lakes offering a risk/reward opportunity on every shot.

These include, the Buzz.com North West of Ireland Open, the Irish PGA Championship and also the Quinn Insurance PGA Charity Pro-Am, which has been held since 1997 and has now become an annual event boasts the highest prize fund for Irish PGA Professionals.
