About Portmarnock Golf Club

Within a picturesque curve of coastline, 10 miles to the north of Dublin City and only a 15-minute drive from Dublin Airport, Portmarnock Golf Club sits majestically on a narrow tongue of shallow duneland. No other Irish course has been graced by so many distinguished players in a rich history encompassing a broad sweep of significant events. It is where Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead successfully followed its serpentine route through classic linkland on their way to victory in the 1960 Canada Cup.

Dernier parcours d'un trip à Dublin composé de 5 parcours et probablement le plus beau et le plus golfique. Accueil premium par l'équipe de golf avec transport jusqu'au practice. Installations d'entraînement fabuleuses avec zone réservée aux membres. Proshop très complet et clubhouse à l'histoire très présente. On pourrait facilement y passer la journée sans jouer les parcours. Mais justement le parcours Championship est un régal de par sa diversité. Le trou 1 met rapidement dans l'ambiance et on retrouve ensuite tous les coups de golf. Mais attention aux roughs, ils vous coûteront d'office un coup, un peu comme les bunkers. Et que dire des greens où il est très compliqué de stabiliser une balle. Mais une fois que vous avez compris les lignes, vous pouvez y aller... Le gros plus, l'entretien impecable de toutes les zones et les vidéos sur les tee 1 et 15. Le moins bien seraient l'absence de gift - welcome pack (pochette avec tees, relève pitch, marque balle...) et donc le fait de payer le carnet de parcours et surtout les trolleys - sachant le prix du greenfee. Mais l'expérience reste extraordinaire. Le menu au restaurant est très simple mais qualitatif et le personnel très agréable.

Before a player even steps onto the highly acclaimed championship links, they experience the very best in on-point service. This includes a meal in the superb, traditional clubhouse as part of the price. We were late-morning arrivals, so we indulged in a delicious breakfast (smoked salmon and scrambled eggs for me), presented with panache. In the corridors and the dining room is a wealth of framed nods to the club’s illustrious past. Following breakfast, we drove to the impressive driving range where free balls are available. My costly mistake was not practising my short game; by the tenth, I had been in eight bunkers on seven separate holes. We were scheduled to play with two other visitors, but they mysteriously failed to appear. So, we were sent out on our own, taking our time behind a fourball because there was nobody behind us. The jovial starter told us we would receive a video and photos of us on the 1st and 15th as part of the package. He also advised us where to drive our ball down the first, a par-four running parallel to the sea with a trio of bunkers down the left. The tone was set for my day when my ball fizzed into the first of those deep traps. The only way out was sideways, and I then unwound a three-wood only to career the ball into the face of the third bunker. It should be said that the condition of Portmarnock is exemplary. The fairway turf is true, and the putting surfaces are wonderfully consistent. A jovial chap met us on the tee of the 15th—the most iconic hole at Portmarnock. He took our email addresses to send the promised footage of the 1st and 15th, combined with drone shots of the course. Portmarnock is a truly world-class golfing experience. I just wish I had avoided its fiendish bunkers—or at least had a lesson on how to get my ball out of them.

Wat een majestueuze linksbaan. Dit is hoe seaside links hoort te zijn. Vrij vlak, bijna in zee en vrijwel altijd wind.


De greens zijn vrij hard, dus aanspelen voorgreen is geen garantie om erop te blijven. Bunkers erg mooi maar soms lastig ontwijken.



Schitterende vergezichten naar Howth en Inis Mac Neasáin.



Ik kom hier heel graag weer eens.
