Surrounded by tall oak trees and bathed in calm, the Fota Island Resort offers the ideal setting for a perfect round of golf. Originally designed in 1993 by Irish Ryder Cup star Christy O'Connor Jr. and two-time English amateur champion Peter McEvoy, before being remodeled in 2000 by golf architect Jeff Howes.
At the heart of a luxurious 5-star hotel complex including 2 other championship courses, the Belvelly and the Barryscourt, Fota Island Deerpark hosted the Irish Open in 2001, 2002 and 2014. The winners were respectively the Scottish Colin Montgomerie, the Danish Soren Hansen and the Finnish Mikko Ilonen who finished his 300th championship here on the European Tour 13 under Par.
Located just minutes from Cork International Airport and the city itself, this resort is set within a magnificent property of over 300 hectares.
Play through beautiful forests and viewpoints on the traditional but challenging Deerpark course. The Deerpark course, with its rolling greens and strategically placed bunkers, impresses even the most experienced pros.
This course features unique and exciting features designed to challenge even the most seasoned golfer, while remaining true to the traditional style, values and playability that characterize golf throughout the Fota Island Resort.
This course offers a fantastic opportunity to achieve a good score, provided your putting is sharp that day. With precise driving, this straightforward course will offer you good birdie opportunities.
