Esker Hills Golf Club

Esker Hills Golf Club

Shane Lowry's home club — a rolling, glacial-ridge parkland and one of the country's great-value rounds.

About this course

Built on a series of dramatic eskers (glacial ridges) in County Offaly, Esker Hills is the home club of Open champion Shane Lowry. Quirky, fun, and absurdly good value for the quality on offer.

What golfers say

Reviewers love the routing — "every hole feels different" — and the link to Shane Lowry adds to the charm. A standout pick for value-conscious groups in the Midlands.
