Widely regarded as the late Eddie Hackett's finest creation alongside Waterville Golf Links, Carne Golf Links was recognised in 2006 as the Highest New Entry in Golf World's Top 100 Golf Courses.

The new “Wild Atlantic Dunes” course at Carne offers eighteen of the most spectacular links golf holes in North West Ireland, integrating the back nine of the original Hackett course with the new Kilmore nine holes, all of which are situated along the Atlantic Ocean, offering unrivalled golf with amazing views.

For many, Carne is regarded as one of the finest golfing gems in Irish golf. Located in the very North West of Ireland within an unspoilt stretch of land in County Mayo, Carne has fostered a reputation as to what links golf should be. It's dramatic sand dunes that frame the holes are some of the most impressive seen anywhere in the world, providing for a memorable golf trip to one of Ireland's most sought after golfing regions.

Carne Golf Links

Hackett was fortunate to be given a phenomenal piece of land on which to build, and he has used the existing dunes sympathetically to produce a classic links. Overlooking the Blacksod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean beyond, the situation is utterly spectacular, and although it may be slightly remote in the North West corner of County Mayo, the unspoiled and pure golfing experience that awaits visitors to Carne absolutely justifies the travelling time.

The lucky golfers that make it will instantly understand that this is one of those rare plots of turf that seems to have been naturally made to be a golf course; during construction, Hackett barely had to move any land, and to a certain extent, the marvellous terrain instructed how the golf course would ultimately exist.

With 27-holes of golf on offer at Carne, many golfers ensure they book in for a day of golf rather than just playing a normal 18 holes. Combine a day at Carne with a trip to other stunning links in region including Enniscrone Golf Club, Connemara Golf Club and County Sligo Golf Club.
