Very long, testing, Fred Hawtree design in magnificent isolation of Clew Bay, has hosted Irish Amateur, back nine is particularly fine. Inland-type course in magnificent setting on peninsula jutting into Lough Ree. Historic seaside course redesigned by Vardon in the 1930s, home to Christy O'Connor Sr. for a time in the 1950s. Eddie Hackett parkland layout on shores of Lough Swilly. Extremely scenic setting and a very friendly clubhouse.
Splendid isolation prevails.
There are 36 holes in all, which are being brought along patiently. The conditioning is still only so-so and there is no clubhouse, but the course is well worth visiting nonetheless. Make inquiries and pay green fees at the Hotel Carrigart, about 2 miles away. Splendidly conditioned parkland course opened in 1992, midway between Dublin and Sligo, Paddy Merrigan design. Remodelled in 1970s with fine views of Longford Town.
