Here is a guideline price for the group of 16 gents doing a southwest golf trip.

The Southwest will incorporate following courses

Lahinch

Doonbeg

Ballybunion

Tralee

Dooks

Waterville

Old Head of Kinsale

For a 7 day trip the price per person would be $3,700.00

For a 5 day trip the Price per person would be $2,700.00

This would include all golf fees,hotels (4star standard) and luxury coach for duration of trip.

We would most likely stay in Killarney,Kinsale and Doonbeg/Lahinch,depending on availability.

Caddies and buggys are extra and payable at the courses.

I can’t stress enough how important it is to get immediate commitment from the guys.

Golf at the various courses is booking fast and for a large group like this we need to get moving on the golf in particular.
