The Environment
Ireland’s wild and rugged landscape, green pastures and jagged cliffs have remained a source of amazement to visitors from all over the world. At Old Head man’s ingenuity has created a modern international amenity in harmony with one of Ireland’s geographical wonders. The course has been sensitively designed and managed in a way which works with nature rather than against it. The course provides a true test against the hazards that nature provided. At Old Head we see ourselves as guardians of this truly unique natural wonder.
