Opened in 1991 with a match featuring golfing legends Christy O'Connor Snr. and Jack Nicklaus, the beautiful and challenging Mount Juliet course has established itself as a premier golfing venue for Top Professionals and leisure golfers worldwide. Due to the quality of the course, Mount Juliet enjoyed a meteoric rise to international recognition.
The golf course is a fair challenge, which rewards good play but punishes errors. The heavily forested course has eight holes to play over water, including the three signature par-3's. The real challenge, however, is the exceptional bunkering that is the genius of most Nicklaus courses.
The Mount Juliet estate is a sporting Paradise, rich in history and tradition. Enjoy golf, horse riding, shooting, tennis and the spa and leisure centre.

Comments
"It may not be a links but with the new greens now in play, this is a pleasure to play. But what makes this place is the old world charm that surrounds the place and the friendly service in both the golf club and hotel." (Guest Review)
