Glasson Lakehouse Golf Club
[Co. Westmeath]
Glasson Golf Hotel and Country Club must be seen to be believed. Set on a peninsula bordering Lough Ree, this Christy O'Connor Jnr. masterpiece will become the subject of many an oil painting.
Ryder Cup star Christy made sure to incorporate rewards for the well played shot in his design, however anything astray at the wrong hole will be treated with the contempt it deserves. One of our many features at Glasson includes the 15th, a par 3 which will undoubtedly become one of the most photographed holes in Irish Golf. With both tee and green situated in the lake, the natural beauty of the reed beds has been known to make the mind swim and the ball sink into the crystal clear waters of Lough Ree.
Golfers can arrive by car or by cruiser from the Shannon River to our private jetty and with the facility of a Golf Academy with all the golf equipment available for hire from the golf shop, Glasson Golf Hotel and Country Club can be played at any time.
