 Golfing
in Ireland: The Most Complete Guide for Adventurous Golfers
Golf Ireland. Ireland is Europe's hottest golfing destination
and one of the most popular golf venues for Americans eager
to sample the fabled links. Author Rob Armstrong predicted the
Irish golf boom in the first edition; in the second, he revisits
old courses that have undergone revision or expansion and uncovers
the best of Ireland's new courses. In his crisp, irreverent
style, he also points out those courses that have not stood
up, those that have been poorly maintained or managed, and those
that have simply proved disappointing. Profiled in this edition
are: the magnificent Old Head Golf Club in County Cork, one
of the most exciting new golf courses in the world; the extraordinary
beautiful new Ring of Kerry Golf and Country Club in County
Kerry that overlooks Kenmare Bay; and the expanded golf complex
at Ballyliffin in County Donegal. He also reviews several new
hotels and restaurants that cater to golfers and are near some
of Ireland's best courses. Armstrong's travel tips include a
discussion of the Euro, which will soon become the unit currency
in the Irish Republic, a warning about the proliferation of
Irish golf tours, and a map to the maze of airlines and rental
car companies.
