The golf course impinges on part of the tree rich demesne in particular Holes No. 1 and No. 2. The pathway from the clubhouse to the 1st Tee is a tree-lined avenue between giant pine trees, which give an atmosphere of calm, and relaxation. Other parts of the course are on agricultural farmland with panoramic views of the Dublin Mountains. Holes No’s 3, 4, 5 and 6 have as a backdrop the mature woodland of the Liffey Valley which gives the course an extra dimension as being part of a mature woodland landscape.
