The aim of these videos is to remind people that the island of Ireland offers some of the very best golf in the world, as well as spectacular scenery and fantastic experiences.

"Spoiled For Choice"
In the video, golfer Leona Maguire says, "We’re spoiled for choice, we have so many fantastic golf courses - there's so much variety, there's something for everybody. Even if you're not a golfer, there's the food and the hospitality, the music and the culture that goes along with it. Everywhere that I travel in the world, everybody has Ireland on their bucket list."
