This is truly a club with a view! Glengarriff's nine holes are in one of the loveliest settings in Ireland, with scenic views abounding - the one from the fifth tee is exceptionally beautiful.
The grassy lane between the second and third holes is part of the historic ancient road between Adrigole and Bantry which also comes up by the trees which run across the course near the eight and ninth holes. The Clubhouse was opened in 1989 by the Club's Honorary President, Dr Maureen O'Hara-Blair, the famous film star. Visitors are always welcome, and generally may play all day. Clubs are available for hire A warm 2010 welcome to our new Captains Michael McNamara & Peggy Healy who are already working hard to ensure we have a successful year. We also welcome our new President Tim Healy who is not only President but Lady Capt's Husband! Double trouble! Maureen O'Hara is of course our Honorary Lady President and more than that our greatest embassador who takes great pleasure and pride in promoting our club. Maureen is 90 this year (yes, hard to believe!) and we hope to commemorate this landmark birthday in a manner fit for a Superstar that she is. Watch out for news on this as we move through the year. |
