Warrenpoint is a very attractive parkland course overlooking Carlingford Lough. The course has accommodated several worthy professional events including the Irish Professional Championship and more recently a Ladies European Tour event. Warrenpoint has many excellent golf holes but special note must be made of the fine par 4 7th where accuracy off the tee is paramount to set up a difficult approach to a well-protected green.

"Royal County Down is a pure links, in the truest sense of the word. My advice to anyone playing this great course is to keep it very straight off the tee - stray from the fairways at your peril! It is a tremendous test of golf and the outward half especially is as fine a nine holes as I have ever played"
