Spectacularly situated on the banks of the River Maigue, just seven miles outside Limerick city, Adare Manor Hotel and Golf Resort is regarded as one of the world’s leading small hotels.

Non-golfers will delight in the old-world charm of the 18th century manor and adjoining spa, which is set in 840 acres of rolling parkland and surrounded by sumptuous, formal gardens.

The real star of the show is the acclaimed 7,453-yard golf course, which was designed by renowned American architect Robert Trent Jones Snr and opened in 1995.

Owners Tom and Judy Kane worked hard to win the right to stage the Irish Open from 2007 to 2009 and were rewarded last year when Padraig Harrington became the first home winner of the title for 25 years.

Corporate membership: For a joining fee of €60,000, which is also a preference share in Adare Golf Club Plc, one to four representatives of eligible firms or corporations may be nominated as corporate members. There is an annual subscription of €3,000 per nominated representative.

Property: Property is available on site in The Village at Adare Manor and more information is available at www.thevillageadare.ie. Homeowners have the option of becoming members.

Corporate days: A registration table is set up in the clubhouse and guests are greeted on arrival. Putting competitions can be organised and gift bags are also available. If the company has any corporate signage, this can be displayed on the course, in the lobby or at the entrance to the resort. Rates are available from the golf club.

Of note: The manor has 52 chimneys to commemorate each week of the year, 75 fireplaces and 365 leaded glass windows. The lettered text carved into the front of the south parapet reads: “Except the Lord build the house, then labour is but lost that built it.”
