Opened in 1995 as Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links, the course was Bernhard Langer’s first links design, built in association with Stan Eby. After new ownership in 2022, the layout was substantially reworked and the course renamed Jameson Golf Links, after the whiskey family whose former estate house still stands as the resort hotel.
I played the hotel links twice while I stayed there for a few days during the annual matchplay event with my brother. Did I win? I can’t remember. Did I like the links? Oh, yes! Just like the gentlemen with whom we had the pleasure of playing.
