Dingle

The Three Sisters watch over this links at that farthest end of the Dingle Peninsula . The hillside that falls away from these three cliff top peaks is home to a low , subtle and very deceptive links , designed by Eddie Hackett ( the back nine ) and Christy O ’ Connor Jr ( the front ). There is new upgrade work being conducted by Ken Kearney . The views may be open , raw and beautiful , but this is a course that demands your full attention .
The burn which slips across eleven holes proves magnetic more often than not . The routing ensures the winds will target you from every angle . And target you they will , as emphasised by several par fours of similar length which play very differently in the wind . This is a crafty links which glides over natural , often unpredictable terrain . It is a startling , sweet links education .

Favourite Hole
One of Dingle ’ s key strengths is its consistency throughout 18 holes . However , the par three 10th behind the club house is a peach .
