The Classic Course at Portmarnock Golf Club
This is one of Ireland's classic Golf Clubs founded in 1894, its recognition and testament to its fine quality golf course is founded by being the venue for the first ever Irish Open Amateur Championships done in 1896, barely two years after it was opened, then almost a century after, the Walker Cup was hosted by the Portmarnock Golf Club in 1991. One of the greatest honors the course has received was being ranked number 30 in 2005 by the famous Golf Digest in its annual top 100 courses outside the US.
The Portmarnock Golf Club started initially with only 9-holes, two years after, 9 more were added making it a complete 18 hole championship course. Eight decades after, another 9 holes were added making it a total of 27. Each of the 9 holes done in stages were an effort collaborated by the amateur members and professionals who joined their efforts to provide the club a golf course that was not only beautiful, but extremely challenging as well.
Many golfers, pros and amateurs, have acknowledged the fact that the Portmarnock is one of the justly dubbed great links in Ireland. The seaside breeze provides a cool refresher and it is also one of the natural enemies of every golfer. A gust of strong wind can easily sway a ball in flight. This course offers little blind curves and some classic bunkers. What you get is a course that will truly test your skills and define you as a golfer.
The course is situated 12 miles from the center of the city and is hugged on one side by the Howth peninsula coastline. While playing, a golfer is rewarded with stunning views from Ireland's Eye and Lambay Island. Taming the course is a delectable experience mixed with the peace and pensive ambience, the well manicured greens, the tended landscape and the winds that abruptly changes both in direction and strength constantly.
But aside from the golf course which make the club well known. The Portmarnock Golf Club offers a variety of amenities and facilities as well. Backed by a dedicated and smiling staff, the Portmarnock Golf Club provides high international standard service to its members and guests.
A golfer may head on to the clubhouse straight to the locker rooms after a round to get refreshed in its shower facilities. They can also go to the bar and restaurant where fine dining on authentic Irish fare can be had. Or they can just go for some drinks and talk about the day's events.
A well-stocked pro shop also offers a wide range of top quality golf equipment like clubs, balls and tees. You can also be able to purchase great Portmarnock Golf Club clothing encrusted with their name and logo. They have in store different colors and designs of hats, shirts, pull-overs, jumpers and other gift packs as souvenirs or gifts.
There is also practice facilities which includes a putting and chipping green just adjacent to the clubhouse. You will also be able to rent pull carts and if they are available, caddies would be able to assist you as you play.
When it comes to a golf vacation in Ireland, the name Portmarnock is not to be missed.

Web Exclusive!HistoryThe most famous Dry Stout in Ireland, and in arguably the world, is Guinness . Arthur Guinness started his stout, or porter as it was then called, business in 1759 using an inheritance of what would be $150 US by today's standards. More incredibly, he signed a 9,000 year lease on a run down brewery now known as St. James Gate in Dublin. The original rent on the lease was about $70 per year and Arthur Guinness sought such long lease to ensure there was always a supply of of the essential resource for brewing stout - water. By 1930, nearly one out of every ten Dublin men depended on the Guinness brewery directly or indirectly to earn their livelihood. In addition, Arthur and his successors set the Guinness -employee standard of living well above local expectations at the time. Wages were between 10% and 20% above the average in Dublin, and paid vacations, free medical care, homes and education were all provided. And to top it off, workers received free Guinness to drink every day. Guinness is a great Irish beer with an intriguing history. |
