South West Links
Our most popular golf tour offers 6 rounds of golf in Ireland's premier golf region. Play the world renowned links at Ballybunion, Tralee, Waterville, Lahinch, Doonbeg & many more.
A wonderful way to see the best of what Ireland has to offer is to take in an Ireland golf and sightseeing tour. The South West golf region of Ireland is now recognised as one of the premier golf destinations in the world. With natural links courses such as Ballybunion, Tralee, Waterville, Lahinch, Dingle and Dooks combined with the traditional and testing parkland courses of Killarney, Adare and Dromoland each course offers the visiting golfer a truly unforgettable experience.
We have created a wonderful 7-night/6-round Irish golf Vacation package giving you the opportunity to play five of our favourite links courses plus the challenging lakeside Killeen course in Killarney, formerly host to the Irish Open.
Of course, an Ireland golf vacation is not all about golf. Ireland is well known for its lively Irish pubs where you can debate the day's golf over a pint of the black stuff (Guinness) and enjoy a lively traditional music session or just a chat with the locals. Take in some of the wonderful sights and tours around Ireland including the Guinness Storehouse, the Dingle Peninsula and the Rock of Cashel to name but a few, staying in vibrant towns such as Killarney in County Kerry.
By clicking on the Itinerary option above you will find a detailed day-by-day outline of the tour, the golf courses that are included and the locations where you will be based. Click on the Prices link for a breakdown of prices for both Self-drive and Chauffeured options.
Should you wish to alter this south west vacation package to better suit your requirements, we would be delighted to assist you. For example, if you would prefer to play all links courses or if you would like to play 36 holes on one or more days simply inform us of your preferences in the 'additional comments' section of the relevant enquiry form.
Arrive Dublin, Shannon, Knock or Derry Airport and meet with your friendly driver guide. Transfer to Sligo, arriving in time for dinner. Depending on your arrival time, there maybe time for some sightseeing en-route. Overnight Sligo DBB
This morning, play Donegal (Mervagh) Golf Club. The club is an outstanding links golf course designed by the legendary course architect Eddie Hackett and is continually featured in Golf World's Top 100 courses in Ireland and Great Britain. After lunch, travel back to Sligo and visit amazing locations that inspired one of Ireland’s greatest poets, W. B. Yeats. Arrive at your hotel for dinner. Overnight Sligo DBB
Play Rosses Point (Co. Sligo) Golf Club. Situated at Rosses Point, a seaside village eight kilometres North West of Sligo town, it is one of the oldest and best known links courses in Ireland. Founded in 1894, the links are set out on one of the most scenic locations in Ireland. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the west; Benbulben dominates the view on the northern skyline and bears a striking resemblance to Cape Town's Table Mountain. The remainder of the day is free until dinner at your hotel. Overnight Sligo DBB
Play Strandhill Golf Club. Situated 8km west of the city of Sligo and nestled under the famous Knocknarea Mountain, this 5675 meters (6206 yards) of undulating fairways and unforgiving short cuts makes it a course to remember. The player can also enjoy an uninterrupted view of spectacular scenery made famous in song and story. Christy O'Connor Snr described the course as 'The hidden jewel of the West'. Overnight Sligo DBB
After breakfast, check out of your hotel & head to Enniscrone Golf Club. This links course reflects a marvellous empathy with the majestic duneland, superb greens and wonderful scenery that abounds. It has been said that the present championship course at Enniscrone now represents as fine a test of links golf as one can find anywhere. After playing, continue around the coast to the heritage town of Westport. Overnight Westport DBB
Today is a free day to enjoy the surrounding area, just relax in the hotels grounds, take a walk down the elegant tree-lined Mall with its stately Georgian buildings and have dinner at one of Westport’s many restaurants. Alternatively, spend some time at Westport House & Gardens, one of Ireland's most significant historical homes. Built in 1730 - on the ruins of one of legendary Pirate Queen Grace O’Malley’s 16th Century castles - and complete with original antiques, dungeons, wax work displays and two comprehensive educational exhibitons - it is home to her direct descendants: The 11th Marquess of Sligo and his family. Overnight Westport BB
This morning we head south to Connemara, stopping at Kylemore Abbey, the oldest of the Irish Benedictine Abbeys. The Victorian walled garden was constructed at the same time at the Castle and is one of the finest examples of its type in Ireland. Continue around the stunning Connemara region with its unspoilt scenery for an afternoon tee time at Connemara Golf Club. This awesomely picturesque 72 par course with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean was designed by Eddie Hackett and measures 7,229 yards from the back tees. Wind and rainbows are the specialty of the house at this course which was started in 1973. The back nine has been described as "the equal of any in the world." Greens set high in the hillside on the 14th and 15th can be unnerving, particularly after the very short but testing 13th. Overnight Galway DBB
Today we shall head to the west coast to visit the spectacular Cliffs of Moher and the unique landscape of The Burren, an area composed of limestone hills that are home to many rare flowers as well as the Poulnabrone Dolmen and the Ailwee Caves, Ireland’s largest cave complex. Continue on to Bunratty Castle and Folk Park where 19th century life is vividly recreated. This evening, enjoy a farewell Bunratty Medieval Banquet at the castle. Overnight Bunratty or Limerick BB
After a final Irish breakfast, travel the short journey to Shannon Airport in time for your return flight.
