About CCGS
Based in North Dublin, Clontarf Castle Golf Society was founded in 1988. Calling the Clontarf Castle Hotel home we are a group of enthusiastic amateur golfers and friends. Our membership is more widespread these days and the only qualifications required are a love of golf, a friendly drink and a good laugh.
