Welcome to our special newsletter dedicated to North West Ireland & Northern Ireland |
|
| We’re excited to bring you the 10th edition of our newsletter!
This month, we’re diving into our recent experience at the IAGTO Golf Convention in Ireland, where we had the pleasure of connecting with global golf tourism leaders, discovering new opportunities, and immersing ourselves into the Irish cultural scene. Following the convention, we set off on an inspiring FAM trip across North West Ireland, uncovering some of the region’s most breathtaking and lesser-known courses, dramatic coastal landscapes, and warm Irish hospitality. And because we couldn’t resist extending the adventure, we took things a step further with an extension trip into Northern Ireland, exploring world-class golf offerings and hidden gems that deserve a spot on every golfer’s bucket list.
In this issue, we share some of the highlights of our trip, our newly created golf itineraries in South West, North West and Northern Ireland and introduce you to our new complimentary guide entitled “Play Golf in the Netherlands” – available for download.
Exciting news!!! Something big is coming our way and we can’t wait to share the news when It becomes official, stay tuned and let’s tee off! 🏌️♀️⛳️🏌️♂️

| Our team recently attended the IAGTO Ireland Golf Convention at the Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa in Sligo followed by a FAM trip to North West Ireland and extension trip to Northern Ireland from October 5 to October 13, 2025.
The convention started with the IAGTO golf competition played at the gorgeous Rosses Point, County Sligo GC on Monday October 6th, a full day of meetings reuniting a total of 60 international tour operators and more than 200 suppliers and a gala dinner on Tuesday October 7th. |

| | | This convention and fam trip were extremelly beneficial to CHASEGOLF and helped us solidify our relationships with the most prominent hotels and golf clubs in Ireland and Northern Ireland. In addition to County Sligo, we played at Donegal GC, Portsalon GC, Ballyliffin Glashedy Links and the Old Links, Royal Portrush Valley Course, Bushfoot GC, and Holywood GC, the home club of Rory McIlroy where we paid a visit to the splendid trophy room. Aside from golf, we also visited many hotels along the Wild Atlantic Way, found the best place to have a drink in Portrush, stopped at the Giants Causeway, enjoyed a food tour & the “Belfast by the Glass experience” in Belfast and got to experience the city by night like a true local.
Most importantly, while some of the most iconic clubs are already full in 2026, we are excited to share that we have made the right connections to secure rare and inaccessible tee-times through these partnerships. We can now organize complex golf trips to Ireland, even with limited golf and accommodation availability. We are confident we can organize the most amazing golf trip for you and your groups with the knowledge, experiences and relationships we just created. Talk to us!
We are incredibly grateful to Peter and the IAGTO team, especially Callum on this trip, as well as the teams at Fáilte Ireland (Ann-Marie, Joe & Martin) , the Wild Atlantic Way and Tourism Northern Ireland (George & Eoin) for their kind invitation and the continued trust they’ve shown us since the beginning of this journey. |

| | Following our 2 rounds at Ballyliffin, we spent 1 night at the Adelphi Hotel in Portrush and 2 nights in Belfast: the first night at the Europa Hotel and our last night at the beautiful Merchant Hotel. We were also lucky to visit and enjoy lunch at the Dunluce Lodge, pay a visit to our friends at Curran Gate, The Marcus Hotel, GolfLinks Hotel, and also toured, the gorgeous Bushmills Inn. There, we played the Valley Course at Royal Portrush, Bushfoot GC, and Holywood GC, near Belfast. |

“The trip to Germany was awesome! Three great golf courses, followed by opening ceremonies at Oktoberfest, with VIP tickets to one of the best halls – how can you beat that!! The local staff was on top of everything and took care of my group extremely well, especially as It related to Oktoberfest! And, Oktoberfest is the greatest party I have ever been to – something that everyone should experience at least once!” Philip. C |
