Pollan Pitch and Putt

A most welcome addition to the local amenities recently completed is
the Pollan Pitch and Putt Course. Situated on Pollan Green on what was
once part of the old Ballyliffin Golf Course, the setting is ideal,
with Pollan Beach just yards away and only two minutes walk from Ballyliffin
Village. The scenery is, as usual in this part of Donegal, superb.
The man behind the venture is
local man Mr. Martin Doherty from Clougherna. Martin had the foresight
to see a dramatic upsurge in interest in golf in this part of the country.
In the last few years. The number of people in this area now playing
golf has increased ten fold, added to that the tourist trade in the
area should mean that Martin has backed a winner.
The Course can be found by taking
the shore road past the Strand Hotel where it is situated on the right,
halfway to the beach. There will be a welcome there for everyone, beginners
and experienced alike.
Clonmany Festival would like to
congratulate Martin and Mary on their new venture
and wish them every success.
