| Course Description: |
Nature has joined forces with
a consortium of course architects to create what can only be described as one
of the most breathtakingly beautiful courses in Ireland. The rolling countryside at Roundwood
has been, sculpted by glaciers during the last ice age to provide an undulating
terrain with good soil and drainage. What better foundation could a course architect
have to begin working with? The parkland has been harnessed and used to great
effect by the architect to produce a course of beauty and a stern test of golfer’s
mettle. The surroundings at Roundwood
are such, that the golfer is easily distracted, but what distractions! Nature
at its most beautiful, the flora and fauna are both plentiful and a joy to look
at. Wicklow, justly famous for its scenery, is at its best here and it is a
guarantee that you will want another round just to glimpse again some of the
views of the course.
