The Portmarnock Old Course

GolfPortmarnock is universally acknowledged as one of the truly great links courses, steeped in tradition and history. Its quality and location have made it a splendid venue for some of the game's great events. There is the charm of its delightful turf, the wildness, the solitude of the sandhills and the sea, and the ever-present challenge of the wind.

The course lacks the spectacular views and elevation changes found in the west of Ireland , but nevertheless offers blind drives and difficult approach shots (e.g. the 16th is a tough par 5 that doglegs right).

Testimonials

"I just wanted to let you know our Ireland trip was fabulous!!
Thank you so much!
Your recommendation to Adare Manor was a top tip!
I went to Ashford Castle as well, it was very very nice to, but my preference is still Adare Manor.
I just wish that I had booked 2 nights there instead of just one.
The B&Bs were TOP too! Especially the one in Kilkieren up in Galway. Barbara was lovely and couldn't have done more to make our stay memorable.
The Hillside House is definately one you can recommend to anyone!" -- Silke
