Course description

Our course is perfect for people who want to enjoy a golf holiday and want to learn English at the same time.

The course is delivered to small groups of 1 - 4 students and is tailored to their specific abilities.

Morning classes are structured around grammar, acquiring new vocabulary and the four skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking are incorporated into each class.

In the afternoon, there will be a wonderful opportunity to practise conversational English when we play 5 rounds of golf on the beautiful courses of Kerry, including Dooks, Castleisland and Killorglin (others can be played on request).

Conversation will also flow over breakfast and lunch in the company of your English teacher and golf companion. All our teachers hold university degrees and are registered with the Teaching Council of Ireland.

After the golf, there will be time to visit some of the tourist attraction of Kerry, including the Gap of Dunloe, Killarney, Dingle, Crag cave and Banna beach.

The price of the course includes 7.30 hours English classes, en suite accommodation, breakfast, lunch, green fees, club and trolley hire and transport. The price will reduce if you make a group booking.

(1 golfer = €1,400, 2 golfers = €1150 each, 3 golfers = €1100 each, 4 golfers = €999 each)
