A magnificent golf links
hidden away on a rugged, sandy, peninsula
that is screened from the cares of the
world by a wall of dense woodlands. The
links offers a greatest golfing experience,
unsurpassed beauty and tranquility that
is almost impossible to find in the modern
world.
The
course at Murvagh is 7,160 yards, par 73
and winds its way through 180 acres of
sandhills and carefully maintained fairways
and greens. The sheltered bay, ensures
that the course is playable all year round
while the Atlantic Ocean provides weather
to make the course a challenge to all golfers.
Lying in the bosom of Donegal
Bay, this superb links occupies an elegant
peninsula which is backed by the magnificent
Blue Stack Mountains. "Hauntingly beautiful
and an excellent test of Golf", is
how Peter Dobereiner of the English Observer
described it. The course is presented in
two loops of nine where the fairways wind
their way by the Atlantic dunes and the
sage-green grasses of the bay. The course
suits big hitters of the ball as the ever-present
ocean breezes ensure that it plays long
and challenging most of the time. The par
3 fifth is called "The Valley of Tears",
and it has proved just that for the golfer
short on skill and nerve.
