CARTON HOUSE
Mark O'Meara, the 1998 US Masters and British Open Champion, has designed
his first European course at Carton House.
O'Meara, of Irish descent describes Carton House as absolutely perfect for
the development of a world class golf course. O'Meara has made excellent
use of the existing mature woodland for his design. Of particular note are
holes 13, 14 and 15 which are guarded by the River Rye, with the 14th
capturing the beautiful Shell Cottage as a backdrop.
Colin Montgomerie, Europe's top golfer for an unprecedented 7 years, is
the designer of the second course at Carton House Golf Club. The
Montgomerie is a masterpiece in golf course design. Using the natural
contours of the land and adopting the classic features of the great links
courses, combined with the experience of growing up on the links of
Scotland, Colin has produced a golf course that will stand the test of
time as one of the great Irish courses.
