Ballyliffin Golf Links

Ballyliffin Golf Links was founded in 1947, and is Ireland’s most northerly course. It is comprised of two courses, the Old links course and the more recent Glashedy course. Faldo once described it as the most natural golf course he had ever played. Calling it “an undiscovered masterpiece” – the Royal Dornoch of Ireland. Constant pressure on the course and clubhouse by locals and visitors led to the creation of the sister course the Glashedy. Glashedy played host to the Irish Seniors Open in 2006. Both courses are well worth a visit during your golf tour of Ireland.

Tain Golf Club

Situated to the south of Royal Dornoch, Tain is a heathland/links course with spectacular views. Designed originally by Old Tom Morris as a fifteen-hole course in 1890, it was extended to eighteen holes in 1894; eleven Morris holes are still in play today. This is an easy walking course with the river meandering through three of the holes. Always presented in beautiful condition, Tain is a good test of golf, with clever bunkering and natural water hazards. Tain is located 35 miles north of Inverness.
