| Course Description: |
"There were very few
locations in Europe that could have allowed scope to design such a classic championship
links." ...Bernhard Langer.
The
Portmarnock Links opened to great acclaim in June 1995 and has been receiving
accolades from visiting golf writers and top professionals ever since. Designer
Bernhard Langer has produced a classic masterpiece to rival any of the great
Irish and Scottish courses. Inspirational use of natural dunes-land features,
the creative use of elevated tees and greens, acutely angled doglegs and ninety-eight
strategically placed bunkers test the most accomplished players. Each individual
hole presents its own exacting challenge.
The
Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links is situated on a 208-acre site beside the famous
Velvet Strand, between the village of Howth and Malahide. The resort is located
15 minutes from Dublin airport and 25 minutes from downtown Dublin.
Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links is the venue of the AIB Ladies Irish Open to
be played from July 11th to 13th 2008.
Voted the No. 25-ranked golf course in Ireland, by
“Golf Digest Ireland” in 2008.
Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links was voted No. 22 Links/Shoreline Course
in Ireland by "Backspin" Irelands leading Golf magazine in 2008, the panel
comprised of a selection of 52 Professional and amateur golfers throughout
Ireland.
