Built by Palmer - Created by Nature.

Like the terrain the region is steeped in history with St Brendan having been born nearby in 484AD. The magnificent beach and surrounds featured prominently in the epic film Ryan‘s Daughter. On the gentler outward nine you will negotiate the 6th, 7th and 8th known locally as Palmer‘s loop. The back nine is a world of extraordinarily wild and massive dunes.

From the 14th tee there is a breathtaking view of Banna Strand which is renowned in song and story. The downhill par three 16th and the doglegged 17th are two more outstanding holes. On reaching the sanctuary of the clubhouse you can sit with your friends for a pint and scan the extraordinary golf course you have just played and to which you will want to return time and time again. “I have never come across a piece of land so ideally suited for the building of a golf course. I am happy we have one of the world‘s great links.“ Arnold Palmer
