We were delighted to discover that our golf course in Cork was named in Golf Weeks top 100 modern course in Great Britain and Ireland.
To be considered a modern golf course, those named had to be created no earlier than 1960 and we were thrilled to be listed at number 32 on the best Great Britain and Ireland modern courses list!
Designed in 1993 by Irish Ryder Cup star Christy O’Connor Jr. and twice English Amateur Champion Peter McEvoy under the direction of Jeff Howes, our wonderful Golf Club at the Fota Island Resort Hotel Cork is just a few minutes’ drive from Cork City’s international airport and passenger ferry terminal and located in the heart of a 780 acre estate which is included in “The Inventory of Outstanding Landscapes in Ireland”.
