Faithlegg Golf Club

Situated on a 200 acre estate, just 6 miles from Waterford City in the heart of Ireland’s sunny South East, Faithlegg is the ideal venue for individuals and corporate or society outings. For visiting golfers, Faithlegg is the perfect inclusion as part of any golfing itinerary in the region.
The superb parkland layout, with tricky doglegs, blind tee shots and strategically positioned sand traps, represents a stiff challenge for even the most accomplished golfers. At a championship yardage of 6,674 and a regular yardage from the white markers of 6,284, distance is rarely the main problem in negotiating a good score at Faithlegg.

The perils of the course lie more in its clever layout and slick, often wickedly contoured greens. Any round of golf at Faithlegg will test the golfers shot making skills to the limit. Rolling straight and true year round, the greens at Faithlegg are finely manicured, often perilously fast in summer months. They represent the perfect distance to a potentially low return. Varying pin placement puts the emphasis on accurate approach shots as inaccuracy is often aptly rewarded by long meandering putts to another level, perfectly exemplified by the par four 18th, a fitting end to a fantastic golfing experience.

Set amongst mature woodland, the setting, scenery and condition of Faithlegg Golf Course belies its relative youth in golfing terms. Running alongside the picturesque Suir Estuary for much of the layout, wildlife abounds throughout the estate. While every golfer can be assured a visually stimulating round, whether their score remains a sense of pride after 18 superb holes, often depends on how well the inherently tricky greens were negotiated.
