Situated at the heart of Omagh in County Tyrone, Sacred Heart Church is an unsurpassed example of late Victorian architecture, as well as a testament to the strength of human determination. Perched on the edge of the Strule River, Sacred Heart is a charming building, perhaps more so for the effort that went into constructing it.

A compact golf course set in picturesque parkland, Omagh Golf Club began life as a nine-hole course in 1910. For many years it remained a humble course, but after its extension to 18 holes in 1983, it fast became one of the most renowned courses in County Tyrone. The incorporation of a new drainage system in 2000 means the course now remains open almost all year round.
