Old Head of Kinsale, Southwest Ireland
The Old Head of Kinsale juts out from the rugged Irish coastline, immediately posing the question: ‘How did they design, and then build, a golf course on this piece of land?’. Every single hole, even shot, at Old Head feels utopian. The cliff edge golfing experience at Old Head is so unique, one cannot pass up the opportunity to visit this property when visiting the Southwest of Ireland.
Easily one of the most dramatic courses you’ll ever play.
About
Curated Southwest Ireland Trips
One of Ireland’s marquee golfing destinations plays host to all-time classics, such as Ballybunion and Lahinch, with modern favourites, Old Head and Adare Manor, nearby. The area will be front and centre in the coming years, with Lahinch hosting the 2026 Walker Cup and Adare Manor the 2027 Ryder Cup. Elite hospitality found in local pubs, quintessentially Irish restaurants, and bespoke accommodation makes this region a cornerstone of any travelling golfer’s resume.
With 2 World Top 100s, a number of big-name courses just on the cusp, world-renowned scenery, and the sense of the “real Ireland” while you travel, this has to be seen to be believed.
Off-course, you’ll visit castles and whiskey distilleries, and you’ll see some of the most breathtaking scenery on the planet, while eating and drinking to your heart’s content with the locals. And no doubt a folk song or two along the way!
