Bunclody Golf & Fishing Club Club Crest

Bunclody Golf & Fishing Club is set in 300 acres of breath-taking parklands in the former Hall-Dare Estate and the lift is provided as a convenience for weary golfers!
It is a feature that could be copied to good advantage at a number of other Irish courses which present a stern walking challenge to all and a near impossible test to their senior citizens.
Opulence and old world rural charm are being combined in a manner befitting the magnificent location here in the former Hall-Dare Estate. Bunclody Golf and Fishing Club is fast becoming another glittering jewel in Ireland’s crown of fine golf courses. This is a big golf course. It runs over 7,000 yards and is the highest point to date in the ascending design career of Jeff Howes. It is set to be a worthy neighbour to Mount Juliet.
