| The Carrick On Shannon golf club is situated on the outskirts of the town of Carrick-on-Shannon – the cruising capital of Ireland.
The golf course, a parkland course constructed to the highest USGA specifications, is located by the banks of the Shannon,
patrolled by the Argina Mountains and is simply spectacular.

| The northern border of Leitrim is defined largely by water - the exquisitely beautiful Lough MacNean and Lough Melvin, two lakes shared with Leitrim's neighbour,
Co.Fermanagh. Another great waterway, The Erne, lies largely in Co. Fermanagh and is now joined with the Shannon via the Shannon-Erne Waterway, which lies largely
in Co. Leitrim. Leitrim and Fermanagh are natural hinterlands to these great waterways, and share many of the attractions which bring visitors and sportsmen to this
lovely part of Ireland.
