Birr | Golf Monthly

published 8 July 2004

Birr is a mature, challenging course, playable all year round owing to excellent drainage and the generally mild climate in an area at the very centre of Ireland.

The newly laid out 337 yards 10th hole is a difficult par 4 played to an elevated green cut out of woodland. Birr welcomes visitors though it?s advisable to book ahead, particularly at weekends. At 6357 yards the par 70 couse is a rewarding challenge well worth the greenfee.
