The clubhouse, which was replaced with a new building in October 2006, includes modern locker rooms, a pro shop, a bar and restaurant, and a TrackMan teaching room with a simulator.

Kanturk Golf Club
Kanturk Golf Club
Kanturk Golf Club sits in the rolling countryside of north Cork between Mallow and Killarney, with views across the Blackwater valley and toward the Boggeragh Mountains and Mount Hillary. The club offers a mature, 18-hole parkland course laid out to a Par 71 over 5,721 metres. Accuracy from the tee and precise iron play are rewarded: the greens are relatively small and described on the club site as fast, while bunkers and subtle doglegs add strategic interest. The course has developed over decades and presents a measured test for a wide range of abilities rather than relying on length alone. Visitors can expect a traditional clubhouse with bar and restaurant facilities and a friendly local atmosphere. Kanturk welcomes societies and runs open competitions; green fee information is published by the club. Practical visitor arrangements include hireable two‑person golf carts (with tops and windshields) and pull carts. The course’s compact routing and scenic setting make it suitable for players looking for a parkland layout with well-kept greens and straightforward visitor arrangements rather than a heavily commercialised resort experience.

Mitchelstown Golf Club sits on well‑draining parkland beneath the Galtee Mountains in North Cork. Established in 1910 as a nine‑hole course, it was extended in two stages: six new holes opened in 1994 and a further six completed in 2003, with the later work designed by David Jones.
