LEINSTER

Founded in 1910, Newlands continues to be a vibrant club with active members across the ladies, men’s, and junior sections. We are a friendly and competitive club as can be observed from the banter enjoyed by the members in the bar and restaurant after competing in one of the many popular weekly, or weekend competitions. Members can also enjoy bridge, snooker, indoor bowling, and music sessions to name but a few non-golfing activities that are available.

​Nestled in the great Johnstown Kennedy Estate, Beech Park took its name from the centuries old beech trees that line its fairways. Designed by the great Eddie Hackett, the natural landscape of the estate and the remnants of the old estate, such as stone walls and old French drains, combine to make Beech Park unique and creates a beautiful walk around the course.

Within a picturesque curve of coastline, 10 miles to the north of Dublin City and only a 15-minute drive from Dublin Airport, Portmarnock Golf Club sits majestically on a narrow tongue of shallow duneland. And as a measure of its enduring quality, it remains one of the most respected venues in world golf. No other Irish course has been graced by so many distinguished players in a rich history encompasing a broad sweep of significant events. It is where Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead successfully followed its serpentine route through classsic linkland on their way to victory in the 1960 Canada Cup. And it is where another generation of Americans, including Phil Mickelson and David Duval, secured a memorable Walker Cup triumph in 1991. These events, along with 19 stagings of the European Tour's Irish Open Championship, reflect the quality of a searching examination across the link's 27 holes. We look forward to warmly welcoming you to play our Championship links, which are rated consistently at the top of national polls, including the Golf Digest rankings.
