Connemara Golf Links

Nestled between the scenic splendour of the 12 Bens mountain range and the rugged Atlantic coastline, Connemara Golf Links is an enduring monument to the genius of designer Eddie Hackett. The testing dog-leg opener sets the tone for a round that builds magnificently toward a back nine acknowledged as the equal of any in the world — a bold claim that the landscape itself seems to substantiate. Hackett was the first to acknowledge that the raw terrain of Connemara contributed greatly to the uniqueness of his design; his deft ability to enhance what nature presented resulted in a dramatic championship course of singular character. An additional nine holes hugging the shoreline, unveiled in 2000, extends the Connemara experience further still — adding yet another dimension to one of Ireland's most compelling golfing destinations.
