Book the Championship Course through golf.carnoustiegolflinks.co.uk — demand peaks from June to August so book 6 months ahead.

Ireland Links Circuit
Dublin → Portmarnock → Lahinch → Ballybunion → Waterville → Adare
Guide difficulty
Advanced Planner
Arrival Day — Dublin
The Merrion Hotel; Georgian Dublin orientation
Arrive into DUB. The Merrion is the address for this circuit — a Georgian townhouse conversion with Michelin-starred Partridge and a private art collection larger than most public galleries. Request a Garden Wing suite overlooking the private lawn. Equipment transfer to Portmarnock is arranged through the hotel concierge the evening prior; no logistics on day one.
Day Two — Portmarnock Championship
Championship Links; Royal Dublin afternoon nine
Portmarnock visiting society access is Wednesday and Friday mornings only — book via the club secretary at +353 1 846 2968 (mention Inside Loop). Request caddie Pat Regan by name; he carries for visiting tour professionals and knows the three blind approaches on the back nine better than any rangefinder. Royal Dublin on Bull Island rounds out the afternoon and books on the day.
Day Three — The Burren & Lahinch
Lahinch Old Course; Dromoland Castle arrival
Transfer to County Clare via private car (recommended transfer company and flat rate included in member documents — avoid the standard tourist shuttles entirely). Lahinch Old Course tee times book through the club pro shop; arriving before 8am secures the best light on the dune holes. Dromoland Castle awaits for the evening — request the Walled Garden wing and ask…
Day Four — Ballybunion
Old Course; New Course evening round; Cashen River views
