Welcome to Ireland: The Emerald Isle of Golf

Ireland is synonymous with world-class golf. Its dramatic coastline and rolling green landscapes create the perfect backdrop for championship courses.

The country is home to some of the most famous and historic courses globally, including Royal County Down, Lahinch, and Portmarnock. With its legendary links courses and warm hospitality, Ireland offers an unparalleled golf experience that blends challenge and beauty.

Ireland’s Legendary Golf Courses

Ireland is renowned for its historic links courses, consistently ranked among the best in the world.

The rugged coastline of the Wild Atlantic Way boasts gems like Ballybunion, Tralee, and Waterville, offering breathtaking views and challenging play.

The northeast features Royal Portrush, host of The Open Championship, and Portstewart, known for its towering dunes. Inland, courses like The K Club provide a lush, parkland-style alternative for those seeking variety in their Irish golf adventure.

A Golfer’s Ideal Climate

Despite its reputation for unpredictable weather, Ireland’s moderate climate allows for year-round golf.

Spring and summer offer long daylight hours, permitting late evening rounds, while autumn and winter bring crisp, refreshing conditions that maintain course playability.

Wind and weather add to the challenge, making each round a unique and exhilarating experience.

Luxury Accommodation & True Irish Hospitality

Ireland’s accommodation options range from opulent five-star resorts to charming boutique hotels and historic castles.

Many resorts offer direct access to championship courses, fine dining, and world-class spa facilities.

After a round of golf, relax by a roaring fire in a traditional Irish pub, savor locally sourced cuisine, or enjoy a whiskey tasting at one of Ireland’s famous distilleries.

Beyond the Fairways

Ireland is as rich in culture and history as it is in golf. Explore Dublin’s lively streets, take a scenic drive along the Ring of Kerry, or visit the iconic Cliffs of Moher.

For whiskey enthusiasts, a visit to Jameson or Bushmills distilleries is a must.

From its vibrant cities to its tranquil countryside, Ireland offers something for every traveler beyond the golf course.
