The Royal Dublin Golf Club is a classic links on Bull Island at Dollymount, just north-east of the city along the coast at Clontarf. It is the closest of Dublin's famous links to the centre, a short drive or bus ride, which makes the seafront hotels of Clontarf and the city-centre stays both easy bases.
