When Dromoland Castle in County Clare played host to the Women's Irish Open, in 2022, it was the first time the event had been held in a decade. What a venue for a rebirth! This parkland is big, glamorous, lazy elegance.
It lies just north of Shannon and about 45 minutes inland from the links at Doonbeg and Lahinch, both of which feature in the Golf Monthly Top 100 Courses UK&I rankings.
