Set among 1,300 acres of ancient forest, rolling meadows and pristine lakeland, this resort offers wonderful accommodation, healthy and delicious cuisine, an 18 hole Jeff Howes designed Golf Course & superb health spa’s facilities.  Complement your stay with a therapeutic treatment or two from our spa treatment menu.

The resorts stunning parkland course is spread over 500 acres of rolling countryside and dense woodland. There is an undeniable sense of nature all around and an atmosphere of peace and quiet that can not fail to capture the spirit of relaxation at arguably the top Golf Resort Ireland can offer.

The two nines are quite contrasting in nature. The gentle but challenging journey on the front nine explores the undulating meadows of this magnificent estate while the back nine is a more vigorous test of golf, travelling through denser more rugged woodland.

Bunkers are not in plentiful supply at Farnham golf course, but each one is very well positioned and in the main large and dead flat. They are not manicured as one might expect, but aesthetically natural which is the overriding feeling of the whole estate.  The greens are a near-perfect texture and allow for a wide variety of possible pin positions, facilitating the enjoyment of all categories of golfer. The contours are interesting but sensible.
