County Down golf guide

Golf in County Down

County Down has plenty to offer for a golf trip. Royal County Down in Newcastle is the best-known course, Ardglass brings you out to the coast, and there are more options around Bangor and Holywood. Holywood Golf Club is also where Rory McIlroy grew up playing — a draw in its own right for many golfers.

There is plenty to do away from the courses. Newcastle sits at the foot of the Mourne Mountains, while Strangford Lough and Castle Ward are worth exploring if you have a day between rounds. The mix of golf, coast and mountains makes Down a good place to stay for more than a night.

It's easy to reach from Belfast's airports or by driving up from Dublin. Once you're there, the courses below will help you compare visitor access and prices and plan your rounds.
