There is perhaps, no
better country to play golf in, than Ireland. Our rich and diverse
landscape offers course designers endless possibilities and
consequently many new excellent courses have been built over
the last 10 years. These coupled with the older established
favourites have made Ireland a Golfing Mecca. Our Links courses
are a true test of golfing ability, the natural elements play
such an important part in your scoring abilities. All of our
coastal courses are a test for even the best golfers, while
our parkland courses also offer a great challenge. You may be
familiar with courses such as Druids Glen or The K Club from
extensive TV exposure, others which we have listed are well
worth playing, such as Rathsallagh or Adare Manor which are
as pleasurable to play as any in the World.

There are several good Golf Tour operators in Ireland. Each
will look after booking Tee Times, Accommodation and Flights
and Transport for you and your party. During the "Peak" Season,
May 30th to September 10th, most Golf Courses are very busy.
As a result you should pre book your tee times with each course
well in advance. All of the recognised tour operators we promote
will arrange this for you we can recommended some of the best
companies to use here
It is true to say that all of the best Courses are difficult
to book Tee times on at Peak Times and that any Visitor to
Ireland should use the services of a Professional Golf Tour
Company to ensure they play the Best Courses when here. -
To whet your appetite we have listed our favorite 12 to play
as well as information on Professional Tournaments taking
place here this year And a complete list of all 18 hole Golf
Courses in Ireland |

will allow anyone to play. While certain tee times may be reserved
for members (e.g. weekend mornings), simply call ahead and ask
what is available and you will receive a warm welcome at most
local clubs. However, some local clubs do NOT have golf carts
("buggys") or rental clubs available.
