Course Description:
Another relatively new golf course, Newbridge opened in 1997 as an 18-hole parkland course. Designed by Pat Suttle measuring 6,002 m off the blue stakes with a Par 72 and standard scratch of 71. With water coming into play on no less than thirteen holes you will do well here to finish with the same ball you started with. Yet it is a fair test of golf for both the low and high handicapper.The visitor is assured of a warm welcome and can relax in the fine clubhouse set in the beautiful country side of North Kildare only 30-minutes drive from Dublin.
