DOOKS is a place where friendliness is a way of life.
The old Irish saying, Cead Mile Failte means 100,000 welcomes. In a land renowned for its welcome this proverb could well have been written for Dooks Golf Club.

Originally a 9 hole course it was laid out at the end of the 19th century.
In 1970 the members designed and built an extra 9 holes which for many years was considered a gem. In 2002 the club employed the services of Martin Hawtree renowned Golf Links Architect to revamp the 18 holes. The result has been an unqualified success.
The Course is now nearly 6600 yards from the back tees but don't be over ambitious the course from the White tees which even though short by modern standards, will test every club in the bag and that's on a calm day! If there is even a "gentle" Atlantic breeze. Dooks is a place where every par feels like a birdie, but irrespective of the conditions or what you score, the stunning panoramic views will remain in your mind and make you want to come back again and again.
