Ballyliffin Golf Club - Old Links

Christened the 'Dornoch of Ireland', Ballyliffin Golf Club's Old Links is now recognised as one of Ireland's ultimate golfing beauties.

A personal favourite of Nick Faldo, who fell in love with the course and its surroundings in 1993, Ballyliffin is one of the friendliest clubs on the Emerald Isle, boasting an unsurpassable setting and quality of terrain that is so perfect for golf.  Nick Faldo visited Ballyliffin in June 1993 and described The Old Links as the most natural golf course he had ever seen.

Situated close to Malin Head on Donegal's Inishowen Peninsula, Ireland's most northerly links comprises 365 acres of spectacular duneland and is practically surrounded by rolling hills and mountains - the only other boundary is the Atlantic Ocean.

The Old Links is a classically old fashioned links. It oozes charm, character and curiosity. More than anything, it is the extraordinary terrain that makes a game on the Old Links such a unique experience: stand on any tee and the fairway ripples and tumbles in each and every direction. The principal architect of the links was of course, Mother Nature.
