Old Head Golf Links
About
Nestled on the dramatic Old Head headland of Kinsale, Old Head Golf Links offers one of the world’s most breathtaking golfing experiences. The course, designed by the late John O'Connor and his brother Patrick, stretches over two miles of rugged coastline, raking along the Atlantic Ocean on County Cork’s south‑west coast. With wide, undulating fairways, tower‑tipped bunkers, and panoramic views of the sea and surrounding headland, each hole presents a unique blend of challenge and natural beauty. The Old Head course commands a reputation for being a golfer’s paradise: the isolation of the site, the wind‑lit links, and the dramatic cliffs create a setting that feels almost otherworldly. Fresh greens, mineral‑rich soil and the ever‑present Atlantic breeze add to the experience, while the course’s layout rewards strategic play and precision. Outside the fairways, Old Head offers world’class accommodations, dining, and wellness facilities, making a stay an integrated retreat of sport, luxury, and nature. Whether you’re looking to test your skill against a cohesive, wind‑swept course or unwind in a stunning seaside setting, Old Head Golf Links provides an unforgettable episode of golf and relaxation.
