Kinsale Golf Club was formally affiliated in 1912 and has developed through several locations around Kinsale before establishing its present 18-hole championship parkland course at Farrangalway in the mid-1990s. The modern Farrangalway layout was created on roughly 122 acres of Bandon Valley farmland and plays as two returning nine-hole loops, with a listed length of approximately 6,935 yards. The club retains links with its past sites: the earlier Ringenane course still exists and now operates as a Footgolf course. Facilities at the club support year-round play and coaching. Practice provision includes a driving range with covered and open bays, short-game areas with chipping zones and putting greens, while the on-site professional shop and PGA coaching team provide lessons, custom fitting and equipment advice. The clubhouse contains bar and dining facilities (Atlantis Restaurant) which serve members, visitors and societies and can accommodate larger group bookings. The club has hosted provincial and national events, marked its centenary by staging All-Ireland Cups and Shields finals in 2012, and lists competitive successes and notable players among its recent history. Practical visitor services include buggy and trolley hire, changing rooms with showers, and wheelchair access to key facilities.
