Set within the lavish grounds of Adare Manor in County Limerick, this Tom Fazio-designed course is a modern parkland marvel. Reopened in 2018 after a full €50m redesign, it’s often called the “Augusta of Ireland” – such is the perfection of its conditioning. The fairways are velvety and generous, the greens fast and pure, and every bunker edge razor-sharp. Water features shape several holes, especially on the dramatic closing stretch. The 18th is a standout – a par-5 finishing beneath the towering Manor House with a creek guarding the green. Though long from the tips, multiple tee options make it playable for all. Strategy and precision matter more than raw distance, and recovery shots must be creative. The course has hosted the JP McManus Pro-Am and will host the 2027 Ryder Cup. This is not a links test – it’s a statement of luxury and elegance, wrapped around a world-class golf course. Every blade of grass is manicured. Every moment feels curated. For those who seek the highest standards in golf and hospitality, Adare is peerless.
