Waterville House & Golf Links

Description

The historic Waterville House & Golf Links overlooks the Atlantic from its location along the Ring of Kerry. The 40-acre estate includes the 18th-century manor house and a renowned championship links course that has been host. Golf on the club's sand dune-covered landscape dates back to 1889. Gorse and native grasses blanket the golf course, coming into play along the firm fairways. Treacherous sod-faced bunkers are strategically placed throughout the course, they present some of the layout's biggest challenges. Golfers should forget the lob wedge and opt for a bump-and-run approach combined with creative shot-making. In addition to the golf course, Waterville is known for being a fishing destination. The waters off of its coast are home to Ireland's most famous sea trout and salmon fishery.
