Bray Golf Club, the first stop for golf in County Wicklow, is a magnificent USGA-standard parkland course, situated between Bray Head and the Sugar Loaf Mountain with magnificent views of Killiney Bay and the Wicklow Mountains. Described as “spectacular in every aspect”, Bray combines stunning scenery with a classic layout.

The course, which has been in play since June, 2003, was designed by Des Smyth (2006 Ryder Cup Vice-Captain) and Declan Brannigan and is a striking example of modern design with old style golfing values. It provides the perfect environment for all golfers. The design strategy involved a tiered effect for the fairways, thereby negating the effect of the sloping site on which the course was constructed.

The course was constructed using modern construction methods and the sand based USGA specification greens provide wonderful putting surfaces all year round.

Bray Golf Club is very proud of the reputation it has as a warm, friendly and welcoming Club, a reputation which has been built up over many years.
They always look forward to greeting visting players, golf societies, golf groups, teams and those participating in golf classics. This warm welcome combined with one of Wicklow’s most beautifully presented golf courses, a magnificent modern clubhouse and all the facilities that a visiting golfer, golf society or golf group could wish for adds up to a wonderful experience, all conveniently located within 5 minutes of the N11 and only 30 minutes from Dublin City Centre.

At all times the staff at Bray Golf Club strive to ensure that all our visitors enjoy their day with them.
