Dunmore East Golf Club is a clifftop, nine-hole course laid out along the shores of Dunmore East village. The course measures 2,317 metres and plays to a par of 35; it can also be played twice using alternate tee boxes to present an 18-hole challenge at par 70. A 2020 redesign by reGOLF’s Irish team (led by Jeff Lynch and Paul O’Brien) introduced two new greens, one built as an infinity-style green and another positioned close to a cliff edge, and reshaped holes to emphasise risk-and-reward shot-making amid natural valleys and ocean inlets. The club is GUI-affiliated since 1991 and welcomes golfers of varying abilities with green fee timeslots available daily and a range of membership options. Competitive member competitions take place six days a week during the summer season. Practical services include hire of golf buggies, clubs and trolleys from reception, and a resident golf professional who provides one-to-one coaching and runs junior summer camps. The setting offers panoramic sea views and easy access to the village and nearby coastal amenities, making it a straightforward option for visiting players and local members alike.

Waterford Golf Club was founded in 1912 and is set on a hill at Newrath overlooking the city of Waterford. The 18‑hole parkland course combines two classical designers: the front nine was laid out by Willie Park Jr., and the back nine by James Braid. The club hosted the Irish Senior Men's Amateur Close Championship in 2021. Three sets of tees alter the course length and challenge: the Blue plays 5,636 yards (par 71), the White 5,471 yards (par 71) and the Red 5,104 yards (par 74). The site’s elevated position gives panoramic views across the Suir Valley towards Slievenamon and the Comeragh Mountains. On‑site facilities include practice greens, a golf shop offering trolley and buggy hire, changing rooms with showers, a clubhouse bar and The View restaurant. The club is member‑owned and operated and provides organised competitions and handicap services; competition entry and score procedures are managed through the pro shop and the club’s scoring terminals. Visitor booking and green‑fee information are published on the club website.
