You'll enjoy every hole at Druids Heath. Here's a hole-by-hole description.

1. As you arrive at the first tee, you are treated to the first of m any breathtaking views at Druids Heath Golf Course. Looking down the fairway, you see as far as a crest about 220 yards from the tee. Beyond this, the Irish Sea calls you on your way to a great experience. This par 4 requires both accuracy and course management. Drives should favour the right side of the fairway and the approach shot offers an opportunity to try a links run in to the green which contours right to left.
2. This downhill par 5 features an island green. A big drive is required if you are to take on the green in two. If you decide to lay-up, the humpback fairway design for your third shot takes you back to the very origins of the game.
3. A great Par 3 across water. The green slopes from right to left and is further protected by bunkers front right and back of the green, making a safe play difficult.
4. This Par 5 offers a rare birdie opportunity. However, a number of large bunkers left and right make accuracy a must off the tee. Seven bunkers and thick gorse guard the approach to the green.
5. A demanding uphill Par 3 to a green surrounded by deep bunkers. This hole generally plays into the prevailing wind and features gorse left and right.
6. This Par 4 plays downhill but requires two big hits to get home. Approach shots will have to carry a large bunker at the front of the green. The green and the approach is guarded by trees.
7. This Par 4 is one of the most difficult holes on the golf course. Playing uphill and generally into the breeze, your drive must carry three cross-bunkers. The approach shot has a true links feel where the green slopes from right to left.
8. A long and difficult par-4, especially if you fail to find the narrow fairway; avoid the steep drop off to the right of the green. A ‘five for two' is a good result—but it's only the 14 handicap hole.
9. Within the Druids Glen Golf Resort, this Par 4 has an inviting drive with mounds left and right. However, a big drive can find the cross-bunkers when playing downwind. The green is well protected by small pot-bunkers.
10. Mounding with gorse on the left and bunkers on the right must be avoided from the tee if this green is to be reached in two. The elevated green features three tiers and is guarded by bunkers.
11. A downhill Par 3 with a dramatic backdrop featuring the Sugarloaf Mountains. The narrow green is angled to suit a right to left ball flight and is well protected on all sides.
12. "In the 12th and 13th, a pair of thrilling and intimidating two-shotters, Ruddy has given us the rarest thing in the game, two original golf holes. The average year finds me visiting 40 to 50 golf courses, many of them for the first time. The total number of original – i.e. unique – golf holes I will play in an entire year is four or five. Here, at Druids Heath Golf Resort, are two of them. The 473 yard 12th climbs into an uphill landing area. We can see it but nothing beyond the crest. A downslope, then moving right, leads to the green. The second shot is tension-ridden. It is long, at least 225 yards for most of us. A large spur of rough-covered ground juts in boldly from the left, forcing us to edge right, where a lake awaits. This shot is one of the most unforgettable – and unsettling – shots you will ever play". James W. Finegan - Legendary American Golf Writer.
13. "The 13th is only 345 yards from the white markers. Trees in the left side of the elevated landing area – not at it but in it – menace the drive (just what are we capable of pulling off here?). The second shot bends right and must clear water and sand while at the same time avoiding a mature tree blockading the left front of the green, itself on the far side of a dip. The green is sharply angled to the flight of the shot. It is likely that no hole you've ever encountered looks or plays like 12 or 13 at Druids Heath.” James W. Finegan - Legendary American Golf Writer.
14. Within the Druids Glen Golf Resort is one of the most beautiful golf holes in the world. Carved from a natural quarry and surrounded by Rock, Gorse and Wooden Sleepers, the green is situated across a valley and has three small pot-bunkers to the front.
15. A Classic Par 5. Firstly, a narrow landing area must be found from the tee. The closer you get to the green the more narrow the landing area. Gorse on the left must be avoided and to the left of the green, there is a 40 feet drop into an old quarry. At Druids Heath Golf Course, the green is protected at the front and right by bunkers.
16. This downhill Par 4 plays towards the Irish Sea and offers panoramic views from Wicklow Head to Greystones. Trees and bunkers provide a challenging approach shot.
17. This Par 4 plays uphill and the only backdrop to the flag is the sky itself. The wind can be a factor on this hole where the elevated green is surrounded by bunkers.
18. The final hole at Druids Heath is a dog-leg right to left Par 4. From the tee players must decide how much of the corner they want to take on. The elevated green is surrounded by six bunkers.
