Characteristics
Narin and Portnoo Golf Club is situated in a beautiful seaside resort in southwest Donegal, six miles from Glenties. It is considered one of the most scenic 18-hole links courses in Ireland , with sweeping views of Gweebarra Bay. A previous layout (designed by Harry Hamill of Royal Portrush) on much of the site of the current club opened in 1905 but had ceased to exist by 1919. Launched officially in July 1930, Narin and Portnoo Golf Club is engagingly old fashioned, with a meandering routing over and around the dunes. A recent course development has increased the par to 73 and has increased the range of shots required to negotiate the terrain. A warm friendly welcome awaits visitors and societies to Narin and Portnoo Golf Club and it is ideal for year-round golf. Voted the No. 80-ranked golf course in Ireland, by “Golf Digest Ireland” in 2008.

A sad story
Reviewed May 20, 2023
From 2002 to 2018 I was a member of this great golf club with the beautiful course right by the sea and the rustic, atmospheric clubhouse. Then, around 2010, some committee members fired to rebuild the course and clubhouse. Result: over 2 million euros in debt, a course conversion that violated dune protection requirements, which resulted in the redesigned holes being closed for 3 years. Then the debt was sold to an investor who had the course rebuilt by the renowned golf course architects Gil & Hanse. The consequences: the golf club was practically thrown out, the green fee was raised to €130, a classy restaurant was raised. But what is worst, the small 700 soul town of Portnoo is divided into 2 camps, legal proceedings without end about centuries-old rights of way, etc. A prime example of how an intact community was destroyed by greed. I'm heartbroken.

In the middle of the change of ownership and conversions
Reviewed June 7, 2018
We were unlucky enough to have played the golf course as beds ran into both the ownership and the entire remodeling of the clubhouse. So everything was a bit provisional and not designed for guests. That's not a criticism, that's just part of it. The golf course itself was of course a classic link course. Personally, I found this place not so nice, but very unfair. In order to be able to score correctly, you have to leave this place at least once. Play blindly without knowing the place is punished mercilessly. Even after really nice strokes it was very hard to find his ball again as you played over hills and could not see the bends right behind the hills.

Fascinating!
Reviewed October 6, 2013
The clubhouse can be found only when you drive through the campground. The first tee can not expect much. 2 and 3 are normal cars. From the four it starts slowly. And then it goes punch for punch, hole by hole in one of the most fascinating links courses in Ireland. Stunning haircuts, great cars, indescribable views. This place is a gem. Our favorite: the Eight. But finding the other tracks are sensational. Unconditionally recommended.
