Coming to Wexford for a few days this October? Pack the golf clubs.

October is a great time to visit County Wexford. The summer crowds have eased, autumn has arrived and the county’s calendar is packed with events, including the 75th Wexford Festival Opera.

But if you’re a golfer, there’s another experience worth adding to your itinerary.

Set beneath the Blackstairs Mountains in the heart of County Wexford, Enniscorthy Golf Club offers 18 holes of mature parkland golf and a warm welcome to visiting players.

Autumn Golf in Wexford

There’s something special about parkland golf in autumn.

Tree-lined fairways, changing colours and crisp autumn mornings provide a very different golfing experience from the height of summer.

At Enniscorthy, you will find an established 18-hole parkland course that provides an enjoyable challenge for golfers of different abilities, with excellent playing surfaces and a peaceful setting beneath the Blackstairs Mountains.

Whether you are travelling with fellow golfers, visiting family or fitting a round into a short break in Wexford, it’s an easy addition to your plans.

Make a Day of It

You don’t have to choose between golf and exploring Wexford. Why not do both?

A Day in Wexford

Morning: Play 18 holes at Enniscorthy Golf Club
Lunch: Relax in The 19th Bar & Restaurant
Afternoon: Explore Enniscorthy or continue on to Wexford
Evening: Enjoy one of Wexford’s many October events

The club also has practice facilities and an on-site Pro Shop, where visitors can check in and arrange equipment, trolley or buggy requirements

A Big October for County Wexford

This year is particularly special.

The 75th Wexford Festival Opera takes place from 15–31 October, marking 75 years of the internationally renowned festival with 75 events across 17 days and welcoming opera lovers from around the world.

There’s plenty happening elsewhere in the county too. The Eugene O’Neill International Festival of Theatre takes place in New Ross from 14–18 October, alongside a busy programme of autumn events around Wexford.

So whether you are coming for the opera, theatre, a weekend break or simply some time away, there’s plenty of reason to stay a little longer.

And perhaps squeeze in 18 holes.

Buggy Path Programme • Club Fundraiser

Golf is a game for everyone, and at Enniscorthy Golf Club we want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy our course, facilities and club community.

As part of that commitment, we are continuing to improve accessibility around the course through our Buggy Path Programme.

Improving Access to the Course

For many golfers, access to a buggy can make the difference between being able to continue playing golf and having to step away from the game.

Improved buggy paths can help older golfers, players with mobility difficulties and golfers with disabilities access more of the course safely and comfortably.

Enniscorthy Golf Club has secured a further €7,500 in Golf4All Capital Grant funding, following on from the €5,000 awarded last year, providing continued support towards the development of the project.

The Golf4All initiative, supported by Golf Ireland, is designed to help golf clubs improve physical accessibility and create opportunities for more people to participate in the game.

Our Buggy Path Programme

Our longer-term aim is to develop an improved network of buggy paths around the course, making it possible for more golfers to experience and enjoy Enniscorthy.

The project is being developed progressively, with the club working towards improved buggy access across a significant section of the course. It is an important investment not only in our course, but in the future accessibility of our club.

Help Support the Buggy Path Programme

Our next major fundraising event in support of the Buggy Path Programme takes place on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th September 2026, when Enniscorthy Golf Club will host a Champagne Scramble Club Fundraiser.

Teams of four can take part for €120 per team. The weekend will also include a social evening and raffle on Saturday night. Funds raised will go towards the continued development of the Buggy Path Programme, helping us improve access to the course for golfers who rely on buggies to continue enjoying the game.

Club Fundraiser – AT A GLANCE Saturday 26th & Sunday 27th September 2026 Teams of 4 €120 per team Champagne Scramble format Social evening & raffle – Saturday 26th September All proceeds support the EGC Buggy Path Programme

Why Your Support Matters

The support of our members, visitors, sponsors and wider community can make a real difference to how quickly we can progress this important project.

By taking part in the Champagne Scramble, supporting the raffle or helping to spread the word, you are contributing to an improvement that can help people continue playing and enjoying golf at Enniscorthy for years to come.

Golf for Everyone

Enniscorthy Golf Club has been part of the local community since 1907. As we continue to develop the club for future generations, accessibility will remain an important part of that journey.

Whether someone is an experienced golfer, returning to the game, living with a disability or simply finding that walking 18 holes has become more difficult, we want to make it easier for them to continue enjoying golf.

The Buggy Path Programme is one more step towards ensuring that golf at Enniscorthy can be enjoyed by as many people as possible.
