I’m considering this place one of the hidden gems of Ireland. A true Alister MacKensie 18 hole layout. The list goes on for courses he’s had a hand in designing. A few notable are Augusta National, Cypress Point & Lahinch Golf Club.

A telltale is the bunkering & shape of the greens. Founded in 1888, it felt like as soon as you walked into the locker rooms, there was history.

A treat for an enthusiast & history buff like myself. Grateful to cross one of his courses off the list.
