West Coast Links Tour
“Golfers with a passion for the most traditional form of the game can enjoy the many delights of links golf on Ireland’s spectacular west coast thanks to a new golf package unveiled by PGA National Ireland Slieve Russell.”
The popular Co. Cavan venue has teamed up with County Sligo Golf Club, Donegal Golf Club and Strandhill Golf Club to launch the ‘PGA National Ireland West Coast Links Tour’.
Based at PGA National Ireland, the exciting new 2020 breaks are available to golf groups of eight or more people and offer access to four outstanding 18-hole championship courses – three links and one parkland – with all four venues regularly ranked inside Ireland’s top 50 courses.
Prices start from €268 per person for two nights’ bed-and-breakfast and three rounds of golf, with four and five-round stay-and-play breaks and seven-night unlimited golf experiences also available. All tour packages include four-star bed-and-breakfast hotel accommodation at PGA National Ireland.
Set just 90 minutes from Dublin and two hours from Belfast, PGA National Ireland’s championship course is regarded among Ireland’s finest parkland layouts. As well as hosting two European Tour events, it was rated number one in Ulster in 2018 while the course was ranked as one of Ireland top-three parkland layouts by Irish Golfer magazine in its updated list of the ‘Top 100 Courses in Ireland 2020’ – alongside the K Club and Adare Manor, venue for the 2026 Ryder Cup.
Barely an hour’s drive away, County Sligo Golf Club – which is also known as Rosses Point – was designed by Harry Colt and is rated as one of Ireland’s best links courses. Home of the West of Ireland Amateur Championship, it has staged numerous high-profile tournaments including this year’s Irish Open Amateur Championship.
Celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2019, Donegal’s par-73 layout offers magnificent views of the Atlantic Ocean and Donegal Bay and has been described by some people as the ‘Muirfield of Ireland’, while Strandhill’s attractive par-70 course is regarded as being the epitome of golf along Ireland’s stunning Wild Atlantic Way.
