Golf has been played at Woodenbridge since 1884. Up until 1994 however, the course was a picturesque nine holes in what is regarded as one of the most scenic valleys in Ireland. The traditional values of the old course have been maintained and a further nine holes added to make Woodenbridge a spectacular 18 hole course. Now a full length 6344 yards, the course at Woodenbridge offers a challenging round of golf.

The par of the course is 71, however this may give an impression that the course is less than challenging, nothing could be further from the truth. Visitors to Woodenbridge will rapidly become aware of the extensive influence of the natural terrain on the course. The Avonmore River bisects the course coming into play on almost half the holes while the mature woods of the valley make most of the other holes a comprehensive test of distance and accuracy. The new nine holes have already taken on a maturity that belies their youth and Woodenbridge is set to become a golfing highlight in Ireland.
