This package is mostly concentrated in the Shannon and Kerry regions of Ireland.
County Limerick, contrasting with the city, is a place of quiet beauty and rural charm. Its gentle undulating landscape is pleasing to the eye from rural mountains of Ballyhoura, the beautiful Golden Vale in the east of the county through to the tidal estuary of the River Shannon.

A particular feature of the county is its range of attractive towns like beautiful Castleconnell by the River Shannon, Killmallock and its rich history or Adare, which is possibly Ireland's prettiest village, and its old world thatched cottages and mediaeval churches.

County Kerry is a striking panorama of deep blue lakes, wild mountainous landscapes, rugged coastline and sub-tropical flora.
It is often referred to as the Kingdom, as it is believed to be the closest thing to heaven on earth. It will be an endless source of pleasant surprises and entertainment for you and your family, surely providing glimpses of paradise.

The region covers Counties Clare, Limerick, North Tipperary and South Offaly and has 25 quality courses, from natural links or parkland terrain, offering the visiting golfers an extensive choice and outstanding challenge.
