Golf has been played on the
Heath since the 1890's and the present club dates
from 1930. The course is laid out on open heathland,
incorporating three natural lakes and was the first
Laois Club to extend to 18 holes over thirty years
ago.
Furze features prominently
on many holes and the course is a plaze of yellow
from early Spring onwards. Facilities available
include a 10-bay driving range, lake-side putting
green and two practice areas as well as a magnificent
clubhouse opened 10 years ago.
Often described as an "inland
links" the Heath offers a unique challenge
to all levels of golfer.
