Lough Erne Resort’s Faldo course has achieved a top 10 spot in the GB and Ireland parkland course rankings.

The Faldo course at Lough Erne Resort was placed in sixth position in Golf World's Top 100 parkland courses in Great Britain and Ireland.

The authoritative rankings see the Fermanagh Lakelands' course positioned alongside renowned golfing locations including Loch Lomond, Wentworth, and Celtic Manor.

The only other Irish venue to rank higher was the 2027 Ryder Cup venue Adare Manor, securing the second spot.

The Faldo championship course, set on a 600-acre peninsula, is now a favoured destination for top golfers.

It features water obstacles on 11 of its 18 holes, nearly 50 strategically positioned sand traps, and a unique sand foundation for all-weather play.

Barry McCauley, golf operations manager at Lough Erne Resort, said: "Everyone at the resort is absolutely delighted with the latest ranking in the Golf World Top 100 Golf Resorts.

"We believe the Faldo course is truly a parkland paradise and this prestigious award is a testament to the world-class golf experience available here at Lough Erne Resort.

"We are extremely grateful for the talented team who work so hard to keep the courses in such fantastic condition all year round.

"This tied in with our front-of-house operations team, who ensure a warm Fermanagh welcome, provide Lough Erne with the perfect mix to be a global bucket list venue."

Mark Ward and Jeff Mahan from TRU Hotels and Resorts LLC, the US-based operators of the resort, said the recognition affirms the dedication of the Lough Erne Resort team to providing an exceptional golfing experience at a world-class destination.

"Being in the top 10 is a true honour and we’d like to thank Barry McCauley and the whole team for their relentless pursuit of excellence," Mr Ward added.
