Situated at the mouth of island studded Clew Bay, Westport is now the most popular holiday resort in the West of Ireland. Stunning scenery complemented by a host of activities ensures that all our visitors can enjoy their stay in Westport.

The premier activity that Westport has to offer is our 18 Hole Championship Golf Course set in 260 acres of rolling parkland on the shores of Clew Bay. It is situated in the shadow of Croagh Patrick, Ireland's Holy mountain amidst some of the most breathtaking scenery imaginable.

The course which was opened in 1973 was designed by the renowned British firm of Hawtree and Sons, who amongst many other commissions designed the new course at St Andrews. Westport has been the venue for many National Championships including the Irish Amateur Close Championship which we have hosted in 1977, 1985 and also in 1997. The maturity of the course and our fine clubhouse ensures that Westport has now taken it's rightful place amongst the best that Ireland has to offer.
