Dromoland Castle Golf& Country Club

An unforgettable golf experienced is promised at the Dromoland Castle Golf & Country Club in the west of Ireland. It is located around ten minutes by car from the airport in Shannon and is easy to reach for a golf weekend. The course was designed in 1961 by Brook L. Wigginton. In 2003, the course underwent renovation by the world-renowned golf course architect Ron Kirby in cooperation with the Irish golf legend J.B. Carr. The par 72 course is 6,239-meters long (for women: 4,793). The 18-hole course winds through a spacious landscape, shadowy forest, open, hilly pastures, past natural lakes and streams, and past the historic Dromoland Castle. Wonderful visual axes open up along the course allowing for views of the castle and the picturesque, slightly hilly landscape. The intermediate course with somewhat strategically-challenging fairways and varied hazards challenges even experienced golfers. Golfers must have a handicap of at least 28 for men or 36 for women. Even the driving range leaves nothing to be desired, as does the beautiful club house with a restaurant and Pro Shop or the exclusive hotel. The Dromoland Castle Golf & Country Club has one of the best golf courses in Europe which regularly hosts large tournaments, such as the Ryder Cup. To play here is truly a unique golf experience.
