Douglas Golf Club

Overview: Douglas Golf Club has eighteen holes across parkland course at Maryborough Hill, a short distance from Cork city and Cork Airport. Irish tourism material lists a par 72 course of 5,825 metres, approximately 6,365 yards, and describes views toward Cork city and the harbour. The course is a practical Cork destination for a full round, with rolling ground and a reputation for well-kept greens. It should not be confused with Douglas Golf Club on the Isle of Man, which is a separate facility.

History: The current course is part of the established Cork golf network and appears in Ireland’s Ancient East golf material as an 18-hole parkland venue. The sources reviewed provide stronger evidence for its current setting, length and par than for a definitive opening year or architect attribution. Those fields are therefore left blank. This is deliberate: the profile identifies the correct Cork course without attaching the Alister MacKenzie name from unrelated or ambiguous search results.

Did You Know? Douglas is only a few minutes from both Cork city centre and the airport, which makes it a useful base-course for golfers combining city time with rounds in County Cork. The course’s own identity is quieter than the famous harbour layouts nearby, but its location and full par-72 card make it relevant to golfers searching for a Cork-area round.
