The course has a very solid sub-soil, which generally makes it playable all year round. A major new development of the course was completed in May 2001. The course is a very fair test for any golfer, irrespective of ability or experience. Thirteen new sand based undulating greens are guarded by intimidating bunkers and are proving a challenge for even the most fastidious of putters. Amenities include a practice area and chipping and putting green. Location: 7 kms from Nenagh on the Old Birr road.

A unique and special holiday is to be found at Crossogue Equestrian Centre, Ballycahill, Thurles, a labour of love for the Molloy family who run the centre on their 150-hectare County Tipperary farm. Because they only invite a small number of guests to join them, there is a wonderful sense of intimacy and family to your stay and the limited numbers mean that they can give you the sort of attention you deserve. Accommodation is the wonderful 19th century Georgian Crossogue House, surrounding by farm and woodland, a horse rider’s dream. They extend their welcome to riders of all levels and experience and offer everything from basic training to a cross-country gallop with excellent horses and tuition guaranteed.
