It has often been said in the past that golf is a good walk ruined. Not so the case in Ireland where some of the finest links courses in the world are to be found. Most people have heard of Portmarnock Golf Links, Ballybunnion, The K Club, Druids Glen, Mount Juliet and Waterford Castle to name but some of Ireland's better -known golfing venues. Tiger Woods is a regular visitor to Ireland and Bill Clinton famously played Ballybunnion a couple of years back. Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Bernhard Langer and Nick Faldo have all designed courses in Ireland. Green fees are not as expensive as in other parts of the world but always be prepared for a sudden downpour. Retire to the 19th hole afterwards and regail tales of what might have been. We are delighted to recommend our sister site Ireland Golf where you can book your tee times live online for a large variety of courses and links throughout Ireland. Golf has become an increasingly popular sport in Ireland over the past decade with a large number of new courses having been built. This ensures that you should have no difficulty getting a round or two in wherever you decide to stay. The 2006 Ryder Cup is of course being held in Ireland, which will enhance the country's reputation as a real haven for golf. |
