Royal County Down Golf Course

Rated fourth in the world by Golf Digest Magazine and rated the best course in the world outside the USA, Royal County Down presents an irresistable golf challenge set in spellbinding scenery. The course enjoys a magnificent stage-like setting as it stretches out along the shores of Dundrum Bay, in the shadows of the looming Mourne Mountains. As well as being one of the world's most beautiful courses, it is also one of the most challenging with great swathes of heather and gorse lining fairways that tumble beneath vast sand hills, and wild tussocky faced bunkers defending small subtly contoured greens.

Royal County Down founded in 1889, is a favourite of Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods and many other professional players. The course was originally designed by ‘Old’ Tom Morris. The Royal County Down has previously been host to the Curtis Cup, the Walker Cup and the British Seniors 3 times in the last 6 years and will be host to The Irish Open in 2015.
