Adare Golf Club and Adare Manor Golf Club, Adare, Ireland

Home of the Irish Seniors’ Open, Adare Golf Club is one of Ireland’s finest inland golf courses, built by Robert Trent Jones in the tidy thatched village of Adare. The imposing Adare Manor, some cathedral ruins, and the Maigue River create a beautiful and uniquely Irish setting to play golf as the course winds around the beautiful grounds. The course itself is both monstrously tough and superbly conditioned. Adare Golf Club is also home to a recently-completed, state-of-the-art clubhouse, with a terrific bar, a great place to have a pint or two after the round. The Adare Manor is a sight to behold in its own right, an architectural masterpiece that will transport you centuries back in time. The Tack Room bar down in the dungeon, is cozy and dimly-lit with a massive log fire to warm you up in the evenings. You can only hope to be sent there!
