To make a tee-time reservation, please call the office or log on to the Club’s website to book online. Prepayment of green fees is required for all reservations.
Payments made by credit card will be in the currency of the card holder. The Club has no control over exchange rates made by third parties and cannot be held liable for any difference between currency paid or received or any commission or conversion made by them.

When payment is made online for a tee-time, an email confirmation of a booking will be sent to the booker. It is important for the golfer to bring this confirmation to the club reception when checking in.

Cancellations received more than six months in advance of the date of play will be refunded in full. Within six months from the date of play, cancellations will result in forfeiture of the full green fee – with no exception.

We regret that we cannot offer refunds due to delayed/cancelled flights or travel plans, personal injury or illness. For this reason, we strongly recommend visiting golfers have travel insurance to cover this eventuality. (For example, www.insuremytrip.com)

In the event of course closure where the management deem the course unplayable, an alternative tee-time will be offered, subject to availability.

Visiting junior golfers playing the Old Course must be between 14-18 years old, be accompanied by an adult golfer and have a maximum playing handicap of 16.

A round of golf on either of the courses should be completed in reasonable time, depending on the weather conditions on the day of play. If one of our Rangers deems that play is excessively slow, golfers may be requested to pick up their ball on the hole and move to the next hole. In extreme circumstances, golfer/s may be requested to leave the course if slow play is persistent.

NON-GOLFERS – We do not allow non-golfers on the course with the golfers for health and safety reasons.

CADDIES / BAG CARRIERS

At Ballybunion Golf Club, we believe that the game of golf is best experienced by walking with a caddie – a tradition 500 years in the making. Please note we insist that every group has at least one Caddie or a Fore Caddie.

To request a caddie, please contact the Club’s Office prior to arrival. Caddies cannot be guaranteed but every effort is made to satisfy all requests. Fees are payable on the day of play. Gratuity is at the golfer’s discretion. We only allow our own Caddies to caddie for golfers.

NON-GOLFERS
