Connemara ( Ballyconneely)
Connemara Championship Golf Links, the only links course in Co. Galway, is nestledbetween the scenic splendour of the 12 Bens mountain range and the rugged Atlantic Ocean. This beautiful isolated links course, founded in 1973 and designed by Eddie Hackett lies to the West of Clifden along the Wild Atlantic Way.

From the testing dog leg opening hole through to the breathtaking back nine, the course is a test for all levels. In recent years an additional 9 holes were unveiled to add a further dimension to the exhilarating Connemara golfing experience.

Carne ( Belmullet)
Carne on the West Coast of Ireland lies in magnificent unspoiled sand dunes overlooking Blacksod Bay and the wild Atlantic Ocean near the town of Belmullet. Carne Golf Links was the last links course to be designed by the late Eddie Hackett and it is now believed by many who have played it to have been his greatest challenge.

The building of Carne Golf Links has caused little disturbance to this wild and ancient landscape. Tees and greens occurred naturally and very little earth moving was involved in the course construction. There are some breathtaking views over the Atlantic and the legendary islands. An additional 9 holes opened in 2013.

County Sligo ( Rosses Point)
The County Sligo Golf Club, located in the picturesque seaside village of Rosses Point, is widely regarded as one of the great championship links courses in Ireland. The club is home to the famous West of Ireland Open amateur championship played every Easter since 1923 and has hosted many other prestigious events including the

Home Internationals, the Irish Close and the Irish Professional Matchplay Championship. The course was redesigned by the famous golf architect, Harry S. Colt, in 1927 and continuous improvements have been made over the years to make the County Sligo course, in the words of the great Peter Alliss, “a tremendous test for the highest quality player and great fun for the modest competitor”.
