Characteristics

The use of dunes and natural terrain should please the most ardent links purists. Elevated tees and greens, blind approaches and doglegs, not to mention typical links sea breezes, keep you thinking through every round. Gently undulating luxuriously sprung fairways leading to large fast greens must be negotiated through 98 strategically placed bunkers, while hillocks, wild grasses and gorse await wayward shots.

Too much affected by the renovation

Recently, the course has been redesigned on at least six lanes/greens and so the course is unfortunately not yet in the GPS system and the newly designed greens also have a significantly slower speed than the old greens. The course itself is sometimes quite narrow and you have to have safe tees to avoid getting into the lateral area, where you sometimes can't find the ball anymore.
Most greens show strong (and interesting) modulation. Greens themselves are usually not very big, so that you can roll off the green again when playing. Overall definitely worth playing.
Very friendly staff in the pro shop but also the start was super nice.

Disappointed for the 2nd time in 3 years

There are quite a few really good links places in Ireland. I don't think this one is one of them. That's supposed to be number 3 in Dublin? All around there are a number of better ones, just private. Or the K Club is z. B very nice and much cheaper. Don't hold Parkland left. I can't judge whether the expensive courses like Doonbeg, Ballybunion or Lahinch are worth the money. When I saw the kind of people clumsily throwing their balls left and right into the rough, I felt sorry for the caddies in particular. Royal County down or Portrush are clearly too expensive and snooty. Donegal has some fantastic links courses. Portmarnock is crowded and very mainstream. The condition was terrible 3 years ago. this year it went like this. 220 euros as a hotel guest are clearly far too much. And the hotel is very old and overwhelmed by groups of travelers and party groups. PS Mount Juliet played 2 weeks before the Irish Open. Top condition. For - hold on - 80 euros per person. Stop Parkland too. But that gets you thinking, doesn't it? With over 700 golf courses in Ireland there is plenty to choose from. It doesn't have to be Portmarnock.

... in the top...

... 3 around Dublin, 20 in Ireland and 100 in Britain & Ireland, that says a lot.

The tastes are fortunately different, an assessment according to clear criteria not.

The aircraft noise of the Airliner can sometimes be disturbing, there are other courses that are far more affected, thundering over the fighter jets - Nairn Scotland - and are also top. You have to ask yourself, how did I get there?

If our notes are correct, then Bernhard Langer - together with Stan Eby - built his first links course here, which was handed over in 1995 to the Spielbetrieb.

For us it's a top course - rightly so. He offers everything that can make golf interesting and difficult - especially the weather. There is no hole in the wind, but most of them are right across. The balls must be hit very well, otherwise they drift off - never again. The many greedy bunkers are waiting for them.

Very good - typical links course - care. everything fits.

We are here for the second time after 2003, it was great fun again.
