Club description

Carne Golf Links was the last links golf course to be designed by the late Eddie Hackett and is now believed by many who have played there to be his greatest challenge. and it can only be described as a hidden gem. Situated on the west coast of Ireland, Carne lies in the splendid sand dunes overlooking Blacksod Bay, the legendary Inis Geidhe and Inis Gluaire Islands and dramatic Achill.

Affording little disturbance to the natural and unspoilt environment that surrounds it, Carne is "everything you could ever ask for from the 1st tee to the 18th green" , - James W. Finnegan
