About Rosapenna Hotel and Golf Links Holiday Apartment

Old Tom Morris Course
The legendary Old Tom Morris laid out the original links that bears his name in 1891. On his first visit to the areaMorris was struck by the quality of the andlsquo;golfing canvas'and before he returned home he staked out the guidelines for his superb creation. In the following decadesboth Harry Vardon and James Braid provided amendmentsto make the golf course the outstanding challenge that it is today.

With some 15 Open Championship titles between the three contributorsit should come as no surprise that the Old Tom Morris course is one of the finest in the north-west region. The greens are undoubtedly the highlight of the coursewith Morris deeming the existing land so good that he only built 3 of the greens; all fifteen of the others are exactly as the land dictated.

Sandy Hills Course
The addition of the Sandy Hills course in 2003 has only added to Rosapenna's reputation. While Morris' course skirts the fantastic dunesPat Ruddy has crafted a monstrous tournament links that cuts through the sandhills of the incredible landscapethat so captivated Old Tom over a century ago.

With these two outstanding creations on an awe-inspiring stretch of turfa golf break at Rosapenna is a truly magnificent experience.
