Castlegregory Golf Club

What is Castlegregory Golf Club like?

Castlegregory is a nine-hole links on the Dingle Peninsula, looking out across Brandon Bay to the Slieve Mish mountains from one side and the Atlantic from the other. It is the most affordably priced links experience in Kerry — a low-key, unhurried club that provides a genuine links round without any of the formality or cost of the major Kerry venues.

Is a nine-hole links at Castlegregory worth a stop on a Kerry itinerary?

Yes — particularly for golfers who want to play on the Dingle Peninsula, which has no other links of note. The setting between the bay and the mountains is exceptional. Playing 18 holes (two loops of nine) takes around three hours and costs very little. Combine with the Dingle town visit and the Slea Head drive for a full Dingle Peninsula day.

Are there seasonal restrictions at Castlegregory?

Yes — the course has seasonal availability and can be irregular in winter months. It is best to check ahead before visiting outside the April to October season. Booking through GolfNow is straightforward when the course is open.

What else should I do on the Dingle Peninsula?

The Slea Head drive from Dingle town is one of the finest short coastal routes in Europe — the views from Dunmore Head across to the Blasket Islands are extraordinary. Dingle town has excellent seafood restaurants and the Dingle Distillery. The Gallarus Oratory, a 7th-century dry-stone church, is fifteen minutes from Castlegregory.
