The destination

The most concentrated links destination in the world.

Ireland and Northern Ireland together hold thirty of the world’s top hundred links courses. That density doesn’t exist anywhere else on the planet. The trip is about routing them into one week.

The northern loop runs Belfast, Royal County Down, Royal Portrush, the Causeway Coast. The southern loop runs Dublin, Druids Glen, Adare Manor, Ballybunion, Lahinch and Waterville on the western coast. Most GB golfers fly into one and out the other. We organise transfers and tee times so the routing actually works.

Adare Manor will host the Ryder Cup in 2027. From the autumn of 2026 onwards, demand for Ireland golf will accelerate. Booking lead time is already pushing eighteen months on the headline courses. We have the supplier relationships to lock tee times for the GB customer base.

The Ireland golf brand is correctly understood by travelling golfers. What changes the booking conversion is the package: which courses in which week, which hotels between them, transfers. We build the trip end to end.

How to package it

Two loops, one trip.

Most Ireland golf weeks run either northern (Down + Portrush + the Causeway) or southern (Adare + west coast). We can route a single trip across both.
