Faithlegg Golf Club is an 18-hole championship parkland course set on the Faithlegg House estate beside the River Suir estuary, a few minutes from Waterford city. The course opened in May 1993 and was laid out by architect Paddy Merrigan. It plays over rolling terrain with many mature trees, five lakes that come into play on several holes, and a mix of doglegs, bunkers and undulating greens that are noted for their pace and contours. From the championship tees the course measures 6,674 yards and it also plays from shorter teeing grounds, including 6,284 yards from the whites. Faithlegg has hosted national-level events such as the Ladies Irish Open (2000–2001) and stages of the PGA EuroPro Tour (2007–2009). The clubhouse occupies the restored coach house at Faithlegg House with views across the course, and the Red Cedar Lounge provides bar and dining facilities. The golf resort sits within a larger hotel and leisure complex on the estate and supports practice areas; membership information on the site notes a short-game practice area, pitching green and putting green. For visitors the club runs competitions and group packages and provides on-site pro shop services.
