Dunfanaghy Golf Club Clubhouse
Dunfanaghy
Golf Club is an 18-hole true links course
laid out in 1905 by six times winner of the British Open, Mr Harry
Vardon. It is situated in County Donegal, 50 km (30 miles) west
of Letterkenny on the N56, along the beautiful north-west coast
of Ireland and offers year-round golfing.
Being one of only two hundred links courses world wide, Dunfanaghy
is easily walked but also offers a superb golfing challenge. The
course has spectacular views of Sheephaven Bay, nearby beaches,
headlands, harbours and the dramatic Derryveagh Mountains. The greens
are consistently rated among the best in Ireland and the course
is sand-based and free-draining, making it playable all year round.
Here at Dunfanaghy we are proud to list two Irish close Champions
and one North of Ireland Open Champion as our members over the last
decade.
2006 saw the 100th year of Dunfanaghy Golf Club. Celebrations have
taken place throughout the year and culminated on Friday 29th December
2006 with the launch of our Centenary book by Paul Mc Ginley and
the Centenary Captains, Barbara Eakin and Keith Lapsley.
