Course Information
Carton House as a golf destination was established in the early 2000s.
The O’Meara Course opened in 2002, followed by the Montgomerie Course in 2003, marking the transformation of the historic Carton House estate into one of Ireland’s leading championship golf resorts
Montgomerie Course-Designed by Colin Montgomerie, this inland links-style course measures around 7,301 yards from the championship tees and is known for its strategic routing, firm fairways, bold contouring and more than 100 deep, penal bunkers.
O’Meara Course (18 holes / Par 73)
Designed by Major Champion Mark O’Meara, the O’Meara Course offers a classic parkland layout with gently rolling terrain, mature woodland framing, and several holes played alongside or over the River Rye. At around 7,165 yards from the back tees
Carton House sits within a stunning 1,100-acre private parkland estate in Maynooth, County Kildare, just about 25–30 minutes’ drive from Dublin city centre and Dublin Airport — making it exceptionally accessible for golf travellers arriving in Ireland.
