About the Book

What makes playing a golf course a great experience? Kevin Markham spent over a year travelling around Ireland by camper van to find out. He played and rated every 18-hole golf course in the country - all 349 of them. The result is the most comprehensive, best-researched guide to Irish golf courses from expensive, well-known courses to affordable little gems. Written in his own inimitable style, Kevin cuts through the marketing hype to give an honest assessment of each course. This concise yet detailed book is for golfers everywhere: for those who want to find the excellent but unsung courses in Ireland; for the golfing societies that want to go beyond their local area; and for the many golfing tourists who want to enjoy the best that Irish golf has to offer. Courses are ranked out of 100 across 8 criteria, including design, facilities, value for money, location and, most importantly, overall golfing experience. Find out how golf courses compare, and discover which courses you have to play.
