Rathsallagh Golf & Country Club
The magnificent course, which first opened in 1994, was designed by Peter McEvoy and the late Christy O’Connor Jnr. It sits in beautiful parkland near Dunlavin Co Wicklow with mature woodland lining all the fairways. Over the years it has challenged and delighted golfers of all abilities. In September 2017, the course was reconfigured so that play begins and ends in front of the clubhouse and a new Par 3 hole was built in the woods between the old 1st and 2nd holes bridging a small river. The old 10th hole (index 1) is now the opening hole – so the ‘wow factor’ is evident right from the very first shot. The re-routing occurs during the middle of the game and players will intertwine the ‘old’ back and front nines for a totally fresh experience.
