The Links Portmarnock golf club Dublin

There were very few locations in Europe that could have allowed scope to design such a classic championship links."  ...Bernhard Langer.

The Portmarnock Links opened to great acclaim in June 1995 and has been receiving accolades from visiting golf writers and top professionals ever since. Designer Bernhard Langer has produced a classic masterpiece to rival any of the great Irish and Scottish courses. Inspirational use of natural dunes-land features, the creative use of elevated tees and greens, acutely angled doglegs and ninety-eight strategically placed bunkers test the most accomplished players. Each individual hole presents its own exacting challenge.

The Portmarnock Links is situated on a 208-acre site beside the famous Velvet Strand, between the village of Howth and Malahide. The resort is located 15 minutes from Dublin airport and 25 minutes from downtown Dublin.

Portmarnock Links is the venue of the AIB Ladies Irish Open to be played from July 11th to 13th 2008.
