“Castle Dargan reflects everything I love about the game. It is a club I am proud to be part of”
- Darren Clarke, Designer & Member
Making the most of the natural ebb and flow of the estates grounds, Darren has woven eighteen beautiful holes through majestic trees, natural lakes, burns and around the ancient stone walls and ruins which dominate this romantic landscape.
Xavier joined the PGA in 2003 with County Sligo Golf Club and has been working as resident PRO in Castle Dargan since 2007.
