Great North Links Challenge

What about this Irish golf itinerary for 4 to 16 golfers this October 2016

An eight day Golf Vacation to Ireland playing tournament golf in Northern Ireland

This Irish Golf Vacation includes playing golf in the Great North Links Challenge at Royal Portrush, Portstewart Golf Club & Ballyliffin Golf Club. Why not play your warm up rounds on Royal County Down and Portmarnock Golf Club. But don’t forget there are always things to do in each area that you visit.

Day 1 Sunday 9th October

Transportation: You can rent a car/ people carrier or you may have prearranged a luxury bus for the duration of the Irish Golf Vacation

Arrive into Dublin Airport and proceed to check into your hotel of choice. I’d suggest spending the day touring around Dublin City Centre. I typically recommend taking a walking tour around the city of Dublin as this is the single best way to find your city centre bearings. As a result of enjoying a walking tour I suspect you will find the city centre hot spots and the fun pubs to visit.

Accommodation: Dublin Hotel 4*, I am suggesting the Portmarnock Links Hotel. This hotel is located a little outside of the city centre, but the rooms are big enough for 2 people

Dinner suggestion: Gibneys in Malahide, North Dublin

Day 2 Monday 10th October

Tee times: Mid-morning tee times at Portmarnock Golf Club

Accommodation: Dublin Hotel 4*

Dinner suggestion: Pichet or Peploes in Dublin City Centre

Royal County Down

Day 3 Tuesday 11th October

Tee times: Royal County Down

Accommodation Notes: In the Portrush area, there are 9 Hotels, 30 B&Bs and Inns and 6 speciality lodging.

Tee times: Tournament rounds at either Royal Portrush, Portstewart Golf Club and Ballyliffin Golf Club
