County Louth Golf Club is often referred to as ‘Baltray’, the village in which it is located close to the historic town of Drogheda.

Originally dating back to 1892, the current championship links was designed in 1938 by the renowned Tom Simpson. The course is laid out in two nine-hole loops and covers almost 200 acres of links land. The golf course has become noted for excellent presentation standards and for the many unique greens complexes.

Consistently ranked among the Top 10 courses in Ireland, County Louth Golf Club has a tradition of hosting major National and International events both Amateur and Professional. In 2009 the Club hosted the Irish Open and gained recognition around the world when Shane Lowry made history by winning a European Tour event as an amateur.

In addition to the golf, the Club is well known for the hospitality shown to visitors and for its excellent food and beverage service.

The course as it is now owes thanks to the 2003 redesign by Tom MacKenzie, which has propelled it over the 7,000 yard mark, and back into the realms of modern day championship golf. This should see more tournaments added to the East of Ireland Amateur, won by Darren Clarke in 1989.

There are no weak holes around Baltray, and with holes running in every direction, visiting golfers must tackle the wind from all angles. The hallmark of County Louth is the quality of its putting greens, which are widely asserted to be among the finest in Ireland. Though not well known, County Louth is a phenomenal experience, best enjoyed as part of a golf tour around Dublin and the east coast.
