Gently undulating course nestled between dunes, the ocean and a mountain range that requires a great deal of “bump and run” shooting. Ballyliffen is often compared to Ballybunion as a connoisseur’s “natural” course that seems to have been designed by God. Greens are fairly large and forgiving, but you must avoid numerous bunkers to get to them. The newer “Glashedy” course is longer and considered more difficult by most players.
