If you have not been lucky enough to have played Ardglass then you don’t know what your missing!

In a land made for golf a spirit awaits at Ardglass Golf Club. A cliff-top, castle and canon protected links in County Down, the first few holes are truly memorable whilst the water can be seen from all 18 holes. 

Having grown up in the community and now Director of Golf at Ardglass, Paul Vaughan is Ardglass personified. Remarkable, personable and an all round great guy. 

I hope you enjoy this episode.
