Royal County Down Golf Club (Annesley Links)
Links Course in Newcastle, Northern Ireland
Nestled within the historic Royal County Down Golf Club in Northern Ireland, the Annesley Links offers a delightful complement to its famous sibling course. Sharing the same stunning natural dune-land setting with views of the Mourne Mountains and Dundrum Bay, the Annesley provides a more accessible links experience. While the club itself dates back to 1889 with early input from Old Tom Morris and subsequent refinements by notable architects over the decades, the Annesley Links has also seen its own evolution, including recent work. It's a charming layout that winds through the dunes, offering a true taste of links golf without the stern test of the Championship course. The club has a rich history of hosting prestigious events, adding to the gravitas of the location.
