Try Ireland for a golf holiday full of emerald green magic!
Ireland is, without doubt, one of the world's friendliest countries. If you take a golf holiday in Ireland then you are certain to return home with memories to treasure for the rest of your golfing days.
The Irish landscape is full of history and steeped in legend - and it
has a truly magical and mysterious quality that you simply don't find
elsewhere in the world. Each little village will bewitch you with tales
of it's past - while entertaining you richly with its beers, whiskies
and food. This is hospitality at its simplest and best. Your golf
holiday in Ireland will be truly unique.
Holiday golf in Ireland lets you choose from some of the world's best
links courses and the softest, lushest inland fairways and greens. No
excuses then! This really is the place to make all your golf holiday
dreams come true.
For many golf holiday visitors to Ireland or Scotland playing on an
ancient seaside links course is a large part of the attraction. But
links golf will test both your stamina and your golf game in a way
entirely unlike anything you've previously experienced. 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.
Be prepared too, for what is often the most unique and challenging
feature of golf on a seaside links course - the wind! You should brace
yourself (sometimes literally) for the fact that it is going to blow
very hard and - by some remarkably twisted freak of nature - in such a
way that it always seems to be in your face, no matter what direction
you are headed in! No golf holiday in Ireland would be complete without
almost being blown over as you line up that last tantalising three
footer.
The fame of the golf links of Scotland - just a hop over the waters of
the Irish Sea - has meant that the golf courses of Ireland remain
relatively undiscovered. Ireland's golfers have been long-known and
respected around the world but - for more than a hundred years - her
golf courses have hidden quietly under the emerald green petticoats of
their homeland. But not any longer! Names like Royal Portrush, Royal
County Down, Portmarnock, Ballybunion, Mount Juliet, Druids Glen and
The K Club are now reaching the lips of discerning players the world
over. If you visit you will find that they are well worthy of the
accolades they gather.
Treat yourself to the golf holiday of a lifetime - and may some of Ireland's magic rub off onto your putter!
Irish golf is unique and not to be missed.
