The
European Golf Course
at
Brittas Bay
. Almost 200
acres of rugged dunesland has been moulded to yield a
links course which will in time take it's place alongside Portmarnock and rival
it's west coast neighbors, Lahinch and Ballybunion. Please note that caddies are
not offered at the European Club. However, a very limited supply of golf carts
are available for hire. Certain restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf
Travel Specialist
The
Links at Portmarnock
, an
outstanding new Bernhard Langer design. This challenging traditional links
course provides outstanding views over Howth and the Irish
Sea. The first five holes away from the sea provide a gentle start,
but the course comes alive when it makes its way through the dunes back towards
the sea. Deep bunkers with steep faces give the course a traditional look while
incorporating modern architectural techniques.
Portmarnock
Old Course,
consistently ranked as one of the top five courses in Ireland
. Most of the trouble is visible and the
fairways and greens are generally flatter than other links courses in
Ireland
. However, the course is well bunkered and is
open to the winds coming off the Irish Sea and Dublin Bay .
The
Island Golf Course. Located
to the north of Dublin City it continues a tradition of links
golf since its foundation in 1890. The Island
presents a formidable challenge to test the capabilities of all golfers. The
magnificent splendour and solitude associated with the Island is highlighted by undulating fairways rolling
through majestic sand dunes.
