Day by Day
A suggested flow for your trip. Every day is flexible — extend, shorten, or swap any element based on your preferences.
Welcome to Belfast
Arrive at Belfast. Transfer to the Grand Central Hotel on Bedford Street. Afternoon free — explore the Cathedral Quarter, the murals of the Falls & Shankill, or visit the nearby shops of Victoria Square.
The World's Best
Transfer south to Newcastle (45 mins). Royal County Down beneath the Mourne Mountains — regularly ranked #1 in the world. Return to Belfast.
Clifftop Drama in Down
Ardglass sits on a stunning stretch of coastline just 30 miles south of Belfast. The clubhouse in the ruins of a 14th-century castle sets the tone — and the views don't let up from there. After, visit Titanic Belfast (entrance included).
North to the Causeway Coast
Transfer north to the Bushmills Inn (1.5 hours). Check in to this legendary coaching inn with turf fires and the best whiskey collection in Antrim.
Where the Open Returned
Royal Portrush's Dunluce Links — host of the 2019 Open Championship. Afternoon visit to Bushmills Distillery — the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery (entrance included).
Causeway Coast Double
Morning: Portstewart's Strand Course — one of the few in Ireland to have hosted the Irish Open. Afternoon: Castlerock's Mussenden Course, a 20-minute drive away. Two Causeway Coast gems in one big day.
West to Donegal
Transfer west to Rosapenna Hotel & Golf Resort in Downings, Co Donegal (approx. 2.5 hours through stunning Inishowen scenery). Check in to the resort overlooking the Atlantic.
Sligo's Overlooked Giant
Transfer south to Enniscrone (approx. 2 hours). Often overlooked while discussing Ireland's great links — a grave mistake. Towering dunes and a course that can rival any in the country. After, continue to Sligo and check in to The Glasshouse Hotel on the Garavogue River.
Benbulben's Stage
County Sligo at Rosses Point — gorgeous scenery, competitive play, and the iconic silhouette of Benbulben mountain watching over every hole. A classic championship course and a fitting penultimate round.
South to the Capital
Transfer south to Dublin (approx. 3.5 hours). Check in to Portmarnock Hotel on 'The Velvet Strand.' Evening free in Dublin or Portmarnock village.
The Dublin Finale
Private transfer to The Island at Donabate for your final round — towering dunes, bordered by the sea on three sides. Return to Portmarnock for a farewell evening. Tomorrow, transfer to Dublin Airport.
