It lies in the heart of a 780 acre estate
which is included in, "The Inventory of Outstanding Landscapes in
Ireland". The splendid woodlands are woven into a challenging, par 71,
championship course which is very much in the traditional mode, featuring
pot bunkers and undulating putting surfaces.
Golf Monthly (U.K)
"It's a mark of imaginative design when a new course appears old before
the paint has dried... Some of their innovations evoke other times and
other values. Purists will delight at the old fashioned features... you'll
stand in wide-eyed admiration ".
Golf Digest (U.S.A)
"...it's time for a breath of true golfing air... Fota eschews the
Schwarzenegger-like brutality in favour of guile and subtlety. Depending
on how you "see" the shot in your mind, you could be playing any of three
different clubs. In other words, it makes you think. It's real golf".
