Milltown golf club (353 1 497 6008) is a second fine parkland course with 18 holes, par 71.

Rathfarnham Castle (353 1 495 1101) is well worth a visit if you are in the area. The Castle has a rich, colourful history, which dates back to 1583 when a Yorkshire man Adam Loftus built it.

Guided tours allow visitors to catch a glimpse of the historic interior, which shows the different layers of the Castle as they were discovered.
