Royal Portrush | Family Golf Trips Ireland

Royal Portrush Golf Club we can’t forget about this one! As official hosts of the Open 2019 the tournament was a roaring sucess. The now famous golf course is found in the fishing village of Portrush, in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It was formed in 1888 and was only a 9-hole course, until 1889 when it was extended to the 18-course (Valley Course).

Lahinch Golf Club | private golf tours of Ireland

Lahinch Golf Club | private golf tours of Ireland

Lahinch Golf Club is one of the oldest golf clubs in Ireland officially opened in 1927 and is a must on your Customised Golf Trip in Ireland. There are two courses, the Old Course and the Castle Course. The Old Course is designed by Tom Morris/Alister MacKenzie and is the St Andrews of Ireland. It looks out on the Atlantic Ocean and is taxing to play when blustery winds come in off the Atlantic. The Old Course exudes a feeling that cannot be compared anywhere on earth. No wonder it is constantly rated among the top courses and that Golfing Magazine named it Irish golf links winner 2015.

The Golf Club; Baltray, County Louth‚ sits on natural sand dunes firmly placed between the Boyne river, to the south and the Irish Sea, to the east.

It is undoubtedly one of the countrys finest links courses and home to superb golf in Ireland. It hosts the east of Ireland Amateur Championship every year.

Tralee Golf Club; the golf club is a rugged and exhilarating masterpiece and Palmer, let nature do most of the work.  The majority of the elevated holes grip tightly to the coast land, giving way to some spectacular scenery from the cliff tops right over Tralee Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.  There are very few links that grab your attention the moment you see them; Tralee golf course is one of those few captivating courses for a unique golf tour in Ireland.
