Westport Golf Club

The Westport Golf Club offers an 18-hole championship golf course, set in a 260-acre rolling park on the shores of Clew Bay. Dating back to 1908, the club is steeped in history and has received deserved national recognition for hosting events such as the Ladies Home Internationals in 1989 and the Irish Close Championship on four occasions (the last in 2005 with the victory of Rory McIlroy). Paul McGinley, captain of the European team for the 2014 Ryder Cup, broke the course record with a card of 65. The course takes place in a beautiful setting, overlooked by Croagh Patrick.

The 18-hole course

Shaded by Croagh Patrick, Ireland's sacred mountain, the course offers fantastic views of the surrounding area from its elevated position above the shore of Clew Bay.
At 6382 meters long and five par 5s, Westport is a demanding course that will test even the longest hitters.
Fred W. Hawtree redesigned the current course in 1973. He said of Westport: "the quality of the course, both inland and by the sea, the views it offers and its exceptional golfing virtues. make it particularly attractive and memorable ".
