The magnificent Golf Course at Mount Wolseley is firmly established as one of Ireland's premier Parkland Courses. The perfect choice for golf groups and individual golfers alike.

Ideally located within one hour from Dublin, Kildare, Kilkenny & Waterford and within easy reach of the Midlands, West, South and Eastern regions, this challenging 18 Hole Championship Golf Course has matured beautifully with age and offers stunning views of the Carlow mountains and countryside. Designed by the late, great Christy O’ Connor Jnr, the Golf Course at Mount Wolseley is an idyllic and lush parkland course that tests every facet of the players’ games while also providing enjoyment. 

The magnificent golf course at Mount Wolseley, the visual delights of the setting are something to behold. Set just a few hundred yards from the meandering River Slaney, its rich population of trees and lakes are set against the backdrop of the East Carlow and Wicklow Mountains. Upon inspecting the location, course architect O'Connor commented: "rarely after a first look around a potential site for a golf course had I been so impressed as at Mount Wolseley, not just with the ideal and natural roll of the ground itself, but also with the magnificence of this delightful rural countryside. What we have here is a fair but testing 18 holes of championship golf, none of which will disappoint even the most discerning player”

Measuring over 7,100 yards from the championship tees, there are no easy holes at Mount Wolseley, with wide landing areas the only concession to demanding approaches to almost every green. The 411 yard par 4, 1st hole is a good example of what is to come. A well hit tee shot will leave a 150 yard approach, which must fly all the way due to a serious dip in front of the green. The bunkers are maliciously positioned, where the contours of the green seem to feed the ball to a sandy lie. And so the roller coaster has begun.
Throughout the course, there is a fine mix of holes with water in play on no fewer than eleven of them. The 11th requires a carry over water of 207 yards from the championship tees, while the 14th and 15th are played amid mature woodlands where the full beauty of the course is hammered home. The 18th provides a fitting climax to an enjoyable round, where two lakes, a stream and a fairway bunker protect the left hand side as the hole doglegs to the right
