Northwest Ireland Golf Vacations with Absolutely Golf & Travel

When golfers think of planning a golf vacation to Ireland, classic golf courses such as Lahinch Old, Ballybunion Old, Tralee and Royal County Down immediately come to mind. However nestled in the northwestern part of Ireland are several championship links golf courses that until recent years have been overlooked by the visiting golfer. Several of these courses are often described by journalists as "The Magnificent Seven" - Ballyliffin Golf Club, Enniscrone Golf Club, County Sligo Golf Club, Donegal Golf Club, Connemara Golf Links and Rosapenna Golf Links.

These great links golf courses lie beside the wild Atlantic coast, and are among the best in terms of design and awe-inspiring views.

Ballyliffin Glashedy Course

They are located in Northwest Ireland, a rugged landscape that is dotted with small villages, lively pubs and lovely country house hotels. This is the nostalgic, unspoiled Ireland of old. Best of all, the greens fees for golf in Northwest Ireland are currently a fraction of the most sought after courses located elsewhere in the country. Which is why a visit to this breathtaking part of Ireland is an absolute must, and why a golf tour to Ireland's northwest should be included in your travel plans!
