Narin Portnoo Golf Course
Portnoo, County Donegal
Narin & Portnoo has probably been for a long time the hidden gem of Irish golf. The rather dated clubhouse and opening up of the dunes (present holes 6-15) in 2009 made Narin & Portnoo a first class links experience. The remoteness of the location may have discouraged golfers venturing to the west coast of Donegal but like Carne in County Mayo or Machrihanish in Scotland the journey is well worth making. The magnificent stretch of holes from the 6th all the way to the last of three consecutive par-5s are simply stunning - the perfect links landscape, the stunning views and the very clever design of challenging links holes.
