About
Northern Ireland's Historic Hidden Gem - Where Heritage Meets Hospitality
Founded in November 1881, The Royal Belfast Golf Club is Ireland’s oldest golf club.
Just 20 minutes from Belfast City Centre, our historic Harry Colt-designed course offers spectacular views of Belfast Lough and a golfing experience steeped in tradition and prestige.
Set against one of the most picturesque backdrops in Ireland, the course emphasises precision over power, with strategically placed bunkers and subtly contoured, lightning-fast greens that demand both skill and strategy.
