"Beaufort Golf Course Killarney is part of Churchtown Estate, the centre piece of which is the Georgian house built in 1740 by Sir Roland Blennerhassett. The estate was bought in 1860 by James MacGillycuddy Magill and it is his grandson and great grandsons who own it today and who have developed this great course. The ruins of Castle Core stand beside the 13th green and it was from here that the stone was taken to build the house. The entrance to the course is lined with two hundred year old trees and the pineapples which crown the gate pillars are a traditional symbol of hospitality."
