About This Course

About The Royal Dublin Golf Club

Situated on the unique sandscape of Bull Island, Royal Dublin is Ireland's second oldest golf club and a true masterclass in traditional links play. This historic property represents the very essence of coastal golf, where rolling fairways thread their way through a naturally demanding, wind-swept landscape. Originally redesigned after WWI by the legendary architect Harry Colt and later modernized by Martin Hawtree, the layout utilizes a classic out-and-back routing where holes run parallel to the bay and turn directly into the prevailing winds. Unpredictable coastal breezes and deep, punishing pot bunkers force players to prioritize precise shot-making and clever course management over raw distance. Boasting a rich championship heritage, the club has proudly hosted the Irish Open multiple times, crowning world-class champions like Seve Ballesteros and Bernhard Langer, making it an unmissable destination for international clients seeking an authentic and historic test of Irish links.
