Lahinch Golf And Leisure Hotel

August 28, 2009

Another of my most favorite courses which I played as a young man is Lahinch Golf Course. Lahinch is located on two miles of beautiful Atlantic Ocean beach directly on the coast in County Clare, Ireland. This magnificent seaside links course has often been referred to as the “Irish St.Andrews” because of its close proximity to the local village and the fact that it doesn’t separate itself from the adjacent community like some other courses do. One of the main attractions of Lahinch Golf Course And Leisure Hotel for golfers is the constantly changing weather conditions (mainly wind direction) due to its being so close to the sea.

There are two golf courses here, the Old Course (6950 Yards) and the Castle Course (5556 Yards), I particularly prefer the Castle Course because of the superior view that it offers. Lahinch Golf Course attracts visitors from all over the world so once they have experienced the friendliness of both the club and the local folks they can’t wait to return for another visit.
