Portmarnock (Championship) 27/09/2007

1^st 3^rd 16^th 48^th

Fabulous. The setting of the 1st tee is wonderful. The first two holes are straightforward but after that it is all very tough. Deep bunkers, elevated & very trick greens...

Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links 27/09/2007

3^rd 19^th

Agree with what's said below. Why is this so low on the rankings? A fabulous course. Certainly the last 15 are really tough. The greens were superb - lightening quick and...

Pyle and Kenfig 02/07/2007

5^th 10^th

A course well worth playing in my opinon. The two nines are both good - holes 11-15 really stand out as classics. The first nine, although not dramatic, is more links tha...

Southerndown 02/07/2007

3^rd 8^th

A good course but not as good as its neighbour P&K but both worth playing. The views here are terrific. We played it in strong winds (which I guess are fairly common) whi...

Vale (Wales National) 02/07/2007

16^th 36^th

We played this as part of the Waverleys tour and was a bit of a letdown after P&K and Southerndown. To be fair, if you like all that corporate golf-thing it is probably n...

Royal Portrush (Dunluce) 13/09/2006

1^st 2^nd 4^th 11^th

This is a must-play course. I would say that the first 15 holes are the best 15 that I have played. The last three, being on flatter terrain, are good holes but not in ke...

Ardglass 30/09/2005

2^nd 8^th

This should be in the Top 200 (if not Top 100).We played as a warm-up to Royal County Down and found it a pleasant surprise. The first is a wonderful quirky hole (sought...

Royal County Down (Championship) 30/09/2005

1^st 1^st 1^st 4^th

Outstanding. Possibly not as tough as Muirfield or Lytham for the top players (fewer bunkers) but, in my opinion, just as good a test of golf for the average club player...

Ballybunion (Cashen) 15/07/2005

4^th 25^th

Both courses are tremendous. The Old is more highly rated and I guess it is because of the greens and the surrounds that reward only the best shots. I played with two oth...

Ganton 15/07/2005

1^st 9^th 26^th 77^th

Simply top drawer. A combination of links land but in a heathland setting. A good variety of testing holes particularly the 6th. The 17th, along with the 16th at Carnoust...

Woburn (Marquess) 15/07/2005

1^st 43^rd 96^th

A very enjoyable course - I've played the Dukes & Duchess several times but this is even better. Wider fairways and rough but more spectacular and memorable holes - the 7...

Tenby 15/07/2005

2^nd 7^th

If your idea of fun is booming big drives down wide open manicured fairways then head for The Oxfordshire or Celtic Manor - Tenby is a thinking man's course. A true links...

Sheringham 14/07/2005

3^rd 79^th

Great views as you play holes 3 through 7 going along the cliffs. A few outstanding holes with the 5th being the best. The par threes are also very good. Not a links cour...

Dunbar 10/07/2005

6^th 39^th

If you like seaside golf you will love Dunbar. After the first three holes - which are all good by the way - you are playing classic in and out links golf. The sea is nev...
