Howth Golf Club
Howth is a hidden gem on the verge of being discovered. Located on a peninsula about a half hours drive of Dublin airport it's a real find. When driving up there you don't realise that the course is located on top of the hill with amazing views all over Dublin including at least 5 other courses worthwhile playing as well. The staff is extremely friendly and so are the mem…

Lahinch Golf Club
When you park your car at Lahinch Golf Club and walk towards the clubhouse, you are greated by a goat statue. The goats at Lahinch Golf Club are quite famous and they are an old school weather channel. When they are close to the clubhouse, the weather is going to be bad soon. When they are way out somewhere on the course, the weather should be pleasant. On the beautiful d…

An other interesting fact is that, if you wear shorts, you have to wear white ankle covering socks! 4 out of our party did not have an…
