Limerick County Golf Club In Limerick, Ireland

Limerick County is a major golf facility in south-west Ireland ideally located 27km from Shannon Airport and close to other Irish Golf courses such as  Lahinch, Ballybunion, and Killarney.  Limerick County Golf Club comprises of a championship-standard golf course, driving range, spectacular clubhouse, and over 100 luxury homes.

The course, originally designed by Irish Ryder Cup player Des Smyth and Declan Brannigan & Associates, meanders over undulating, sand-based terrain and provides firm footing for the golfer throughout the year. Des has made excellent use of the landscape and this provides for some spectacular second shots, particularly on the front nine holes.

The course is built on part of the Croker Estate, the ancestral home of the notorious "Boss" Croker of New York’s Tammany Hall fame. Croker lore has it that as the family patriarch lay dying he was promised a fairer land on the other side. He replied "I doubt it".

Limerick County was designed by Irish Ryder Cup player Des Smyth and Irish Amateur International Declan Brannigan and opened by the then Taoiseach Albert Reynolds in June 1994.  Celebrating its 10th birthday, Limerick County Golf & Country Club Limited completed a €1.5m course improvement programme in April 2005.

The course improvement programme comprised of the redesigning and building of 5 completely new golf holes, 6 new tee complexes, replacement of irrigation heads to all greens and tees and verti-drainage of the fairway on the 1st hole, and the purchase of the top of the range fleet course machinery. All of the new developments are now fully in play and add an extra dimension to the ever-maturing course.
