Kilrush, situated under a mile from the old heritage town of Kilrush, was founded in 1934 and redesigned by Dr Arthur Spring in 1994. The clever use of the natural terrain combined with water, trees and sand bunkers has resulted in a scenic course that is a pleasure to play.

It enjoys a beautiful setting, looking out on the River Shannon, the Kerry Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean The ninth hole is breathtaking.

Played from a plateau, this 168-yard par three is set in a valley and guarded on three sides by water, with sand on the fourth side. The choices are 'be up or lay up' according to members.
