Links golf at it's best at Ballyliffin. The Od Links is an exciting layout - rippling fairways - ocean's edge - natural dunes - breathtaking mountain views. Truly a remarkable place to play links golf. Course was in great condition. Course you could play every day and still enjoy the round.

Situated on the Murvagh peninsula in Donegal Bay, this links course is isolated from the outside world by a forest of evergreens on one side, and the distant Bluestack Mountains on the other.

The course at Murvagh is fabulous - even in foul weather. The par 3s are all very testing and the par 4s pose all sorts of problems and choices. If the wind is in the right direction the par 5s may give you a chance of birdie, if not be grateful if you have a chance for par. The course is spectacular and there are great views. Donegal Golf Club is worth the drive and every penny of the green fee. It is a bucket list course.
6. Bundoran Golf Club
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 27 reviews
Bundoran Golf Course is an eighteen hole championship golf course situated on the stunning Northwest Atlantic coastline of Donegal. Almost all the holes have stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. The course rarely plays the same two days running due to the wind factor. However it is suitable for both the low and high handicapper. As Harry Vardon said when designing the course he hoped it would "give pleaseure to all golfers of all degrees".

We enjoyed excellent food served, freshly cooked to perfection, even for someone who is very particular about how a steak is cooked. It was served hot where appropriate and portion size was generous. We had starters, mains and desserts on both nights of our recent short break, with both of us trying different dishes, so we got to sample a lot more of the menu. Really genuinely friendly and helpful staff who made every effort to ensure everything was perfect made the whole experience a real treat. One important note we really appreciated that in these difficult and challenging times of Covid19 we felt safe seeing the extra space given between diners with the obvious reduced capacity.

Narin & Portnoo is a Par 73 Championship Links Course, in south west Donegal. One of the most natural links courses in Ireland with stunning views of the Gweebara Bay and a unrivalled hole variety. Considered by Philip Reid as one of the "great eight" courses of Ireland it is a course that every golfer should play at least once.Visitors are welcome to play the course and avail of the bar/resturant facilities in the newly renovated clubhouse which all combine to create a truely memorable day. Gil Hanse has completed redesign at the course with the first phase of construction was finished in December 2018. We will be in play by 2019.

What a fantastic and challenging course! The new course changes are great and I really did enjoy the par 5 finish. Also they do a great pint a Guinness in the club house, would highly recommend!

Established in 1891, The Northwest Golf Club has often been dubbed by Cecil Barcroft, the 'St Andrews if of Ireland' as it draws its links comparisons with that of the famous Scottish links. A founder member of the Golfing Union of Ireland, the course lies between the picturesque Moldy Mountains and the Sea. The surrounding scenery is magnificent. The Club boasts a modern, comfortable Clubhouse with catering, bar and locker room facilities. It has been dubbed by Cecil Barcroft, the St. Andrews of Ireland. There is much in common between St. Andrews and ‘Lisfannon’, such as concealed runs and bumps approaching the Greens that look easy enough to run onto. Difficulties too, do not always catch the eye from the tee so it is very much a case of careful shot selection and keeping the driver firmly in the bag. The holes are very varied with many sandy knocks and pleasant undulations but the general tendency is flattish. It provides pleasant Winter Golf
