"There are no tricks or nasty surprises, only an honest, albeit searching test of shot making skills." Tom Watson 5 Time Open Champion

Universally acknowledged as one of the truly great links courses, Portmarnock is situated to the north side of Dublin, 10 miles from the city centre, and just a short drive from the Grand Hotel and Portmarnock Links Hotel.

Its quality and location have made it an excellent venue for some of the game’s great events, from the British Amateur Championship of 1949, to the 1991 Walker Cup and the Irish Open on 12 occasions.

Invariably rated among Ireland’s best courses, Portmarnock takes justifiable pride in its 27 holes, which are maintained to the highest standards.

"In 2009 Portmarnock was voted as the number one course in Ireland." Editor Golf Digest Magazine
