Opened in 1973 by Christopher Gaisford-St Lawrence of Howth Castle, the Deer Park 18-hole course made golfing history in Ireland by becoming the first privately owned course available to the public. Since then, the Fred Hawtree designed layout has given much enjoyment to golfers from Dublin and further afield for over four decades. The par 72 course with its generous fairways and beautifully maintained greens plays 6293 metres for Men and 4678 metres for Ladies, offering as much challenge as reward.

Under the watchful eye of long-time Head Greenkeeper Gerry Hudson, the Deer Park course is beautifully maintained year round and offers a great opportunity for groups and individuals to play a round of golf in a relaxed and friendly environment.
