06 May 2008 Golf resort and spa planned for south east Ireland BY Sarah Todd |
A consortium of investors has submitted plans to Waterford County Council for a £104m (150m euro, US$206.3m) resort on the coast of Cahir near Tramore, south-east Ireland. The as yet unnamed resort project will be located in Islandikane, and will have an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf course as its centrepiece, along with a period-style hotel with a health spa, bar, restaurant and function room. A clubhouse, leisure centre with various sports facilities, 51 golf lodges and 28 houses will complete the development. Construction for the resort is expected to take two-years once planning permission is granted. Architects for the project are Fewer, Harrington, Lawlor & Partners. When completed, the resort will provide employment for up to 350 people. Close Window |
