Royal Portrush Golf Club – Valley Links. Portrush.
The Valley Links is the sister course to the world-famous Dunluce at Royal Portrush — a superb links in its own right, set in spectacular North Antrim coastal landscape and far more accessible than its illustrious neighbour.
Royal Portrush Golf Club – Valley Links
Royal Portrush Golf Club's Valley Links occupies a remarkable stretch of linksland on the North Antrim coast, sharing the same facilities, views and club prestige as the Dunluce but offering a very different golfing experience. The Valley plays to a par of 70 over 6,304 yards, winding through sheltered dunes and undulating fairways that test course management as much as ball-striking. Without the same volume of visitors as the Dunluce, the Valley offers a more relaxed round with equally dramatic scenery.
The Valley Links was redesigned alongside the Dunluce restoration in preparation for The Open Championship 2019 and now serves as both a qualifying course and a genuine destination. It attracts visitors who want the Royal Portrush experience at a green fee less than half that of the Dunluce. Advance booking is required but considerably easier to secure. A must-play for any Causeway Coast golf itinerary.
