Lahinch, County Clare
Lahinch Golf Club (Old) is a municipal-in-name-only public layout in Lahinch, County Clare. It peaks in summer.
Tee times are open to the public, though the good ones go fast. Green fees run ~€300. The property offers lodging close by, which shapes how we build the days around it.
Lahinch is public, coastal, and change-your-plans windy on the wrong day — which is exactly what earns it a spot at No. 29 on a serious golfer's list.
Summer is the season on Ireland's west coast, and it slots naturally into a longer bucket-list run through Ballybunion and the surrounding coast.
