County Louth (Baltray), County Louth, Ireland
County Louth Golf Club is without question one of the best links courses along the East Coast of Ireland. Described by Padraig Harrington as ‘one of the most exciting links courses in the country’. Successful member of the European tour, Shane Lowry won the 2009 Irish Open at County Louth Golf Course. It also hosts the East of Ireland Amateur championship every year. The highly respected Tom Simpson redesigned the layout in the mid 1930’s and it has remained largely unchanged since. Well positioned bunkers, fast undulating but true greens, and a great variety of holes make Baltray, as it is better known in Ireland, an attractive and excellent test of golf.
