Royal County Down Golf Course
Please note both courses at Royal County Down are closed until 17 April 2023.
Royal County Down is in one of the world's most naturally beautiful link settings in the Murlough Nature Reserve.
Against the magnificent backdrop of the Mountains of Mourne, the links stretch along the shores of Dundrum Bay, zigzagging back and forth to provide a different vista from virtually every hole.
The narrowest ribbons of fairways thread through as impressive a set of dunes as could be imagined.
The fairways are surrounded by purple heather and golden gorse, so beautiful to look at but so punishing for any who may stray from the prescribed path.
The ninth hole is one of the most photographed holes in world golf.
A 486-yard par four is played from one side of a huge mound down to a fairway 60 ft below and 260 yards from the tee.
The second shot is played over two bunkers to a raised green from the bottom of the slope.
The finest of all links courses, it offers a stern challenge from the championship tees.
The record is 66, set by Ireland's first golfing superstar, Jimmy Bruen, in 1939.
The Stableford tees offer golfers of all standards the opportunity to play a great course with a dramatic panorama of the surrounding mountains and coastline.
