MOUNT JULIET - ENTIRELY SUBLIME The great new book ‘Golfing Ireland – The Guide to Every Irish Golf Course’ by Michael Atkinson and Carig Morrison, manages to encapsulate the essence of this Irish treasure with the following description. “The Estate is built around a beautiful Georgian Manor House. The destination hotel and its restaurant are fantastic. Mount Juliet is as lovely and luxurious as it gets, entirely sublime. “The Mount Juliet Golf Course manages to be idyllic as well as imposing, bucolic yet sometimes bruising. It’s a truly great course and from the back tees a truly great challenge. But played at shorter lengths it is refreshingly manageable and offers great entertainment, considerable excitement and much joy. There are no holes which are less than excellent. But there are some which are better than stellar, perhaps the third, fourth and 13th which all feature watery trouble, perhaps too the enigmatic 16 and its stunning stone walls”.
