The legendary Old Tom Morris set the highest standards for the course from the outset. He was followed by equally celebrated architects Charles ‘Mo’ Gibson and Dr Alister MacKenzie.

Lahinch will make the finest and most popular golf course that I, or I believe anyone else, ever constructed.
-Dr Alister MacKenzie (1926)
