Naas Golf Club sits in County Kildare, approximately twenty miles southwest of Dublin in the heart of Ireland's thoroughbred country. The course was designed by Jeff Howes and occupies gently rolling parkland characteristic of the region. The layout takes advantage of natural elevation changes and mature tree-lined fairways that define playing corridors and frame strategic decisions from the tee.
The routing moves through a mix of open and wooded terrain, with several holes playing along natural ridgelines that provide views across the surrounding Kildare countryside. Water features come into play on select holes, and the bunkering reflects Howes's approach to strategic design, rewarding accurate placement over pure distance. The greens vary in size and contour, requiring thoughtful approach play and careful reading on the putting surfaces.
Naas Golf Club serves as a traditional members' club within the Irish Midlands golf community. The course provides a test suitable for regular club competition while remaining accessible to golfers of varying abilities. The clubhouse overlooks the eighteenth green and maintains the welcoming atmosphere common to Irish golf clubs, where visitors are received in the spirit of the game's social traditions. The club's location in Kildare places it within convenient reach of Dublin and the broader network of parkland courses that characterize inland Irish golf.
