Since its official opening in 1994, Rathsallagh has taken its place among the top courses in the country. Less than 3 years later it was included in the top 30 (out of over 350) of Ireland's Greatest Golf Courses of 1997. Designed by former World Amateur Champion, Peter McEvoy and leading Irish professional, Christy O'Connor Jnr., Rathsallagh is a spectacular course which will test the pros without intimidating the club golfer.

Set on 252 acres of lush parkland with thousands of mature trees, natural water hazards and a gently rolling landscape, it was really designed by nature but adapted for golf by man. What often sets some golf courses out from others is the quality of the greens. Rathsallagh has achieved the highest standard of greens and being built to USGA specifications, Rathsallagh's highly acclaimed putting surfaces have set a new standard in turfgrass management. The course continues to receive favourable reviews from those who play it. With a lovely clubhouse sitting on a hillside of the 18th green, the visitor is assured a very pleasant collection of memories. Magnificent mature trees and wandering brooks give the course an instant feeling of age and thousands of new trees have been planted to transform it into a tree-lined wonder in future years. It is a place which captivates and will become still better with age. The Rathsallagh Golf Club welcomes guests at all times. The clubhouse is open to visitors for changing facilities. The clubhouse restaurant offers meals throughout the day and can cater for up to 150 people.
