Live your golfing dreams on
an Ireland golf vacation.
The K Club, Ballybunion,
Lahinch, Doonbeg, Druids
Glen… the names of the
courses may not trip off the
tongue quite as easily as
those of their Scottish
cousins but the quality is
just as high. An Ireland golf
vacation will introduce you to
some of the grandest, most
charming, most testing and
most mystical golf courses in
the world. You’ll return
home with your putter coated
in magic and with memories to
fill after dinner tales for
decades to come.
An Ireland golf vacation is
special – unique even –
don’t miss the chance to
come.
There is no finer place to
play golf in the whole world
than in Ireland. You might
yearn to feel the Atlantic
breeze tugging at your sweater
as you wend your way between
the high sand dunes on a
coastal links. Or you may
prefer the lush and rich
emerald green of an inland
pasture studded with silver
bunkers and flower banks. All
of this and more is here for
you if you care to venture on
an Ireland golf vacation.
Ireland has always created
great golfers and recent Ryder
Cup matches have turned on the
skills (and, perhaps, the
legendary luck) of the Irish.
The next Ryder Cup will be
played in Ireland and
worldwide interest in visiting
this most welcoming of islands
has never been greater. The
Ryder cup at the K club near
Dublin promises to be the best
organised and most thrilling
event on the golfing calendar.
For many visitors to
Ireland or Scotland the chance
to play on an ancient seaside
links course is a large part
of the attraction. But links
golf does provide a unique
experience and will test both
your stamina and your golf
game in a way entirely unlike
anything you might have
previously experienced. The
wind has the remarkable knack
of always blowing in your face
– no matter what direction
you’re facing.
Links courses rarely allow
electronic golf buggies or
golf carts. Walking is the
rule. This is partly to
protect the courses and partly
because the terrain would make
it impossible to drive a buggy
safely. Some of the larger
more prestigious courses may
have caddies available and
most will allow you to pull a
simple club carrying golf cart
or trolley.
One of the joys of an
Ireland golf vacation is that
even the grandest of the
courses and clubs will welcome
visitors. Book ahead to ensure
a tee time and visit the
website of the club ahead of
your visit. Get a feel for
local rules about dress and
etiquette. Pick a lucky
shamrock, warm yourself with a
drop of local whiskey and
swing away for the game of
your life.
The world is full of golf
courses but there is no
country can boast as many
shining jewels as Ireland. An
Ireland golf vacation can make
your golfing dream a reality.
