"I have never seen such a variety of spectacular courses in one week! Looking forward to booking the next trip already"

"The people who gave us golf and called it a game are the same people who gave us bagpipes and called it music..."

Waterville Golf Links

"(At Waterville) it's so peaceful you don't even care where the ball is going." - Chad Maulsby

Links land is a geological rarity. Less than one percent of all the courses in Ireland and the British Isles are championship links. Waterville is one of these. It is no wonder that the world’s best players test their mettle here.

Killarney

The Southwest of Ireland is particularly blessed with an abundance of wonderful courses and the natural Lakeside courses at Killarney Golf and Fishing Club are widely considered the jewels of the region and very deserving of their title - "The Nearest Golf Club to Heaven!"

Tralee

Tralee is truly one of the 'can't miss' golf experiences in the world. My only concern is that golfers don't notice the exceptional golf course and its superb conditioning because of the breathtaking scenery. Tralee requires two rounds. One for the scenery and one for the golf course.

Ballybunion Links Cashen

"Ballybunion is the course on which many golf architects should live and play on before they build golf courses" - Tom Watson

Grateful for the contributions of past generations and individuals with vision, who helped develop this fine landscape into the incredible golfing challenge of both the Old and Cashen courses which we have today.

"This is a course I want to be identified with, one I will be able to say with pride -- ' I did that one.'   I am the luckiest designer in the world . . . because of the uniqueness of the site."

Laninch Golf Club

Lahinch Golf Links has the distinction of being a MacKenzie course, a mecca for keen golfers. The Club had started when on 26th March, 1892 Alexander W. Shaw and Richard J. Plummer, two prominent officials of Limerick Golf Club, went to the West coast of Clare as a result of a casual rumour that, somewhere between Ennistymon and Miltown Malbay, there was suitable ground for a golf course. While travelling from Ennistymon they passed what was then a dreary desolate piece of land, a mass of sandhills. As a result of further visits to this area Lahinch Golf Club was born.
