Castletown
Castletown Golf Course
Castletown, Isle of Man Tel: 01624 825435
Golf has been played at Castletown since 1892.
The course in its present form was laid out by
golfing legend Mackenzie Ross in the late 20s
and early 30s and provides some of the purest
golf links anywhere in the British Isles. A
championship course presenting some real
challenges at over 6700 yards off the
championship tees, there are some carries to
frighten the best, yet off the yellow society
tees there is scope for the club golfer to
perform as well. The club has held a number of
classic championships, the most notable being
the PGA cup matches against the USA in 1979.
For a good day's golfing, right on the edge of
the Island's capital, Douglas Golf Club at
Pulrose Park is ideal. A 'pay and play' golf
course, founded in 1891 and maintained in first
class condition, Douglas Golf Club offers
exceptional value for money.
A round of golf at King Edward Bay is bound to
be memorable. The course is superbly maintained
and affords some of the most superb views in the
Island, situated in an elevated position in
Onchan, on the outskirts of the Island's
capital, Douglas. The springy mountain turf is
quite exceptional and there are some most
impressive holes, including the short 14th, a
par three with a carry over the heather and a
magnificent view of Douglas Bay in the
background. Indeed, everywhere on the course the
golfer is treated to breathtaking landscapes and
coastal views.
Laid out on undulating heathland Peel golf
course lies just to the east of Peel. The course
is extremely varied, with many holes having been
cut through pine tree plantations, and offers a
complete range of natural hazards: stream, turf
banks and gorse.
Founded in 1895 Rowany golf club is a superbly
maintained course with a newly installed
irrigation system. There are some excellent
views over the Irish Sea and with its location
in the delightful town of Port Erin, for a
change of pace, the course can be reached by
vintage steam train from Douglas.
Formed in 1903 as a private company, the golf
club has occupied its present location since
1936 when the nine-hole course, designed by 1920
British Open Champion George Duncan, came into
play. This is the only nine-hole course in the
Island but whatever your handicap, its design
presents a number of interesting challenges,
with the tremendous bonus of some truly
spectacular views of the two bays of Port St
Mary and its bustling harbour.
An interesting course, established over 100
years ago, with some spectacular views and a
superb range of amenities. Nigel Mansell was the
ex club champion at Ramsey Golf Club - an
immensely enjoyable course which, although
demanding, is not too hilly and so makes a
superb day's golfing of two rounds in the north
of the Island.
Mount Murray
Golf Club offers something special to all
who play on the superbly designed course,
with breath-taking views that stretch
over the unspoilt Manx countryside to
England.
The 18-hole course is a challenge to all
abilities, with each hole having its own
unique hazards.
The lush green trees, light and dense rough and
contoured fairways complement a truly outstanding
course. Facilities include an excellent practice
putting green, a practice pitching area and a
24-bay driving range. 12 of the bays are covered
so you can continue to play in all weather
conditions. Head Professional Allyn Laing and
P.G.A Professionals Jonathan Fletcher and Andrew
Seddon are on hand to assist in any way they can.
Private tuition may be arranged on request. Take
the opportunity to visit the well-stocked Pro-shop
where you will find an array of ladies' and
gentlemen's golf equipment and clothing. The Mount
Murray Golf Club House plays host to the island's
biggest pro shop, a large open plan bar, a 100
seated restaurant, a snooker room, two conference
rooms and a spacious function room.
