In 2006 Tramore Golf Club commissioned Jeff Howes, one of Europe’s leading golf course designers who has previously worked with Jack Nicklaus on Mount Juliet, to construct 27 holes to USGA specification, this involved construction of 9 new holes followed by a remodelling of the original 18 hole course. The newly constructed 9 holes alongside one of the original 9 holes will offer golfers a superb test with undulating greens complimented by various hazards and lakes, all in a dramatic setting. The new 9th a par 3 is set to the signature hole of the new nine as it plays down through a corridor of trees onto a sloping green surrounded by a creek.

The second phase of the plan will commence in July 2008 when remodelling will start on the original second 9, for completion in 2009 followed by remodelling of the first 9 in 2010. This beautiful, exciting and challenging championship golf course will feature 27 holes providing a test for the low handicapper whilst also being enjoyable for the middle to high handicapper. All in all a golfing experience not to be missed by golfers planning a trip to the South East.
