Course Description:

As privately owned venture, the Faughan Valley Golf Course offers an 18-Hole. Par 69 Course measuring 5722 yards built on a unique, naturally dry site affording the golfer a parkland Course with year round playabilityNatural drainage has been adapted to form many water hazards with two lakes being in play over five holes. The snake like open drainage system ensuring attention being paid to both long and short shots.

There are a number of notable holes, that deserve special attention. The 11th with a panoramic view of the River Faughan provides a nervous tee shot due to the seemingly magnetic attraction of the soothing calm waters on the right. However the third, a demanding Par 5, is surely the benchmark of golfing excellence. At 547 yds, this genuine 3 shotter has a unique semi-island green requiring a precision shot to avoid a watery grave! Faughan Valley Golf Course is proud to offer 'Golf for all, all the time'.
