Golfing legend Christy O’Connor Sr. used to be a regular here and even now, in his 80s, he’s often seen playing three or four holes. The course is part of a protected wildlife habitat, with beautiful flora and fauna to spot year round. Major improvements have been made in recent years to the sixth, seventh and eighth holes, and also to the clubhouse, which has panoramic views over its greens and Dublin Bay.
