Tulfarris

Hugging the shores of the Blessington Lakes south of Dublin, three peninsulas form the dramatic setting for this championship golf course. Despite being a relative newcomer to the scene, Tulfarris has already developed a growing reputation as one of Ireland’s top courses and has recently hosted both the Irish Seniors Open and the Irish PGA Championships.

Note: The Tulfarris Estate was once part of the ancient lands of early Irish Chieftains, one of which was Silken Thomas, the last great Irish Earl of Kildare before the Elizabethan conquests of the early 17th century. Tulfarris House was built in 1760 at the ruins of Tulfarris Castle, mentioned in the annals of Irish history in the 11th century, while an ancient Christian burial ground is preserved on the estate under the mounds of the 10th and 12th fairways.
