PORTMARNOCK HOTEL & GOLF LINKS
PHOTOS MAPS

Not far from Dublin, the first hole at this golf resort is a reminder to enjoy life while you can—visible just off to the right is a cemetery with magnificent crosses that has collected its share of golf balls. Portmarnock feels like a course that has been around forever, when in fact it was designed in 1995 by Bernhard Langer, Germany’s golf superstar. “I couldn’t have designed this kind of classic links course anywhere else,” remarked the two-time Masters Champion about his masterpiece with raised tees and greens that has also hosted the Ladies Irish Open. The hotel was once the residence for members of the Jameson Whiskey dynasty, and the fairways mark the spot where James Mollison took off in 1932 on the first east-to-west transatlantic flight. Golfers should plan on finishing off their round in style by stopping by the Jameson Bar and enjoying a glass of Jameson whiskey in honor of the family who founded the estate.
