The Whitesands hotels was the perfect base to explore this fantastic stretch of Irish golfing coastline. The hotel was comfortable, good b'fasts, lively bar, and great club at weekends. Portmarnock GC was a gem, The Island a real surprise, superb. The K Club & Carton House were great layouts, and didn't disaapoint - worth paying the extra, just be ready for about 45 mins drive from P'marnock. Malahide as the local town is a great place - plenty of good restaurants & bars, recommend the Greedy Goose, excellent & good value. Overall, a top trip, thanks to Yourgolftravel for all their help in organising.
