Important Experience Information
What airports should I plan to fly in and out of?
You’ll want to ideally schedule your flight to arrive in and out of one of the Belfast Airports ~ Belfast City (BHD) or Belfast International (BFS). However, we can include transportation to and from Dublin for you!
Your first hotel on this Experience is The Grand Central Hotel, which is about 30 minutes from Belfast and under 3 hours from Dublin.
Please contact the GG Concierge Team if we can be of assistance with arranging alternative airport transportation or assist with booking flights.
What will the weather be like during our stay?
A day in Northern Ireland in the Summer features average temperatures in the high 50’s, low 60’s.
What currencies are used in Northern Ireland?
The currency utilized in Northern Ireland is the Pound – GBP. The GBP is currently trading at 1.34 USD to 1.00 GBP.
Ballyliffin Golf Club would be the ONLY Course in Ireland, which would be EURO.
Will I be able to get cash and use credit cards while in Northern Ireland?
You will find that most major credit cards and debit cards are nearly universally accepted in Northern Ireland. The same is true of Travelers checks, which should be in GBP to avoid extra exchange rate charges. ATMs are ubiquitous throughout Ireland so you will have easy access to cash. It should be noted that American Express is not as widely accepted in Europe as Visa and MasterCard.
How much cash should I bring?
We recommend bringing minimal US dollars, i.e. $75-100, with you and then accessing the local ATMs upon arriving in Ireland. The ATM will dispense the local currency and your bank will automatically calculate the exchange rate. Your own bank will typically provide the most favorable exchange rate available to you.
How many meals are included?
A full Irish breakfast will be served every morning of your Experience, in addition to a Welcome to Ireland Dinner on property at Lough Eske Castle and a Farewell to Ireland Dinner on property at Mount Falcon.
The Garmany Golf Concierge Team can assist with making any reservations and recommendations for the group for additional meals not included in the Experience.
What is the cancellation policy for this Experience?
All deposits and final payments are non refundable. However, we highly recommend purchasing a travel insurance program through Travel Guard.
Garmany Golf is a licensed representative of Travel Guard, the recognized leader of travel insurance options. A Garmany Golf Concierge will be happy to provide a quotation or you are welcome to explore a quote below.
What if I want to play additional and optional golf?
There are plenty of championship links and hidden gem courses in and around Northeern Ireland. If any Guest wants to play additional golf, even at the spur of the moment, a Garmany Golf Concierge can arrange optional golf for you. Optional golf can be arranged well in advance of your departure as well. Please consult the Garmany Golf Concierge Team for golf options.
Can I play 36 holes a day if I want to?
Absolutely! If you would like to play more, please let a member of our Concierge Team know and we will be happy to set up additional tee times for you.
How do I arrange for a caddie and how much do they cost?
The experience that comes from walking the course with a caddie cannot be overstated. The local caddies will not only be more adept at keeping you out of more trouble than a seeing eye dog, they will also regale you with great stories about the history of the areas and the courses. They are without a doubt, some of the best entertainment value you can experience in Ireland.
All caddie fees are due at the course on the day of play and each Guest will be responsible for caddie fees and gratuities. Caddie gratuities are payable in cash, preferably in the local currency.
We highly recommend arranging caddies with our Concierge Team prior to your departure to ensure the maximum availability.
Caddies fees range from £60-75 for the base fee plus gratuity. A typical gratuity for good service might be £20-35. With Ballyliffin €60-75 Euro.
Are golf carts available?
The golf courses in Ireland, for the most part, tend to be shorter and flatter than the courses you’re likely used to playing. In other words, they were built for walking.
Some courses have carts, or buggies as they’re known in Ireland, but they have a limited number of them and they can be a bit more expensive than what we’re used to in America, running £30 or more.
Buggies are not guaranteed to be available due to the limited supply and strict requirements to reserve one; all requests should be made well in advance in order to be able to reserve one.
If you wish to request a cart, please know that a medical certificate may be required. Some courses tend to have a limited number of carts so in order to give you the best chance to reserve one, please provide GG with your cart request at the earliest possible time.
Can I ship my golf clubs?
Yes! We partner with Ship Sticks, the leading club shipping provider for the PGA TOUR,
and can easily arrange to have your clubs shipped directly to Ireland prior to your arrival and back home so you can travel with ease and without hassle or worry of your clubs being lost or delayed due to the airlines.
