Nestled on the wild and unspoiled Atlantic coast of County Donegal, Dunfanaghy Golf Club is a traditional links course that offers an unforgettable Irish golf experience. Originally designed by Harry Colt and later refined by Eddie Hackett, the course makes full use of its natural seaside setting, with rolling dunes, undulating fairways, and ever-present coastal winds shaping each round.

The layout rewards thoughtful shot selection and creativity rather than raw power. Firm turf conditions encourage running shots, while strategically placed bunkers and natural contours challenge golfers to adapt their game to classic links-style play. Every hole feels connected to the surrounding landscape, offering stunning views of Sheephaven Bay, Horn Head, and the open Atlantic Ocean.

Dunfanaghy is known not only for its golf but also for its warm, welcoming atmosphere. The clubhouse provides a relaxed place to unwind after your round, with friendly staff and a strong local golf culture that reflects the charm of this small coastal village. Practice facilities are available, and the course is playable year-round, making it a popular stop for golf travelers exploring Ireland’s northwest.
