Lying just 20 minutes from Dublin Airport, it is perfectly placed for anyone flying into the Irish capital. The course was designed by Irish professional Des Smyth. At 6437 yards, it's not overly long by championship stanadards but Smyth has still come up with a course which is sure to test even the most accomplished of player. The course has its own 'Amen Corner' - the four holes from the 11th to the 14th are all card wreckers - and three man-made lakes, coupled with the Broadmeadow River, see water come into play at nine of the 18 holes.
