Dunfanaghy

Dunfanaghy Golf Club is an 18-hole true links course laid out in 1905 by six times winner of the British Open, Mr Harry Vardon. It is situated in County Donegal, 50 km (30 miles) west of Letterkenny on the N56, along the beautiful north-west coast of Ireland and offers year-round golfing. Being one of only two hundred links courses world wide, Dunfanaghy is easily walked but also offers a superb golfing challenge. The course has spectacular views of Sheephaven Bay, nearby beaches, headlands, harbours and the dramatic Derryveagh Mountains. The greens are consistently rated among the best in Ireland and the course is sand-based and free-draining, making it playable all year round. At Dunfanaghy they are proud to list two Irish close Champions and one North of Ireland Open Champion as their members over the last decade. 2006 saw the 100th year of Dunfanaghy Golf Club. Celebrations have taken place throughout the year and culminated on Friday 29th December 2006 with the launch of their Centenary book by Paul Mc Ginley and the Centenary Captains, Barbara Eakin and Keith Lapsley.
