Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Ireland Dog Friendly Review
Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Ireland holds an acceptable C Roch Rank for dogs, and it has some genuine strengths for owners travelling with a four legged companion. Dogs are welcome on the terrace and patio and in the lounge, provided they are kept on a leash or held in arms in all public areas, including outdoors. There is a garden dogs may use under the same leash rule, and the cottages are surrounded by lots of green grassy areas. A fabulous beach is right on the doorstep, said to be perfect for a longer walk, giving owners a real option beyond the grounds.
Inside the room, your dog is well looked after, with a plush dog bed, a water bowl and fresh bottled water, gourmet treats and toys provided for entertainment. Dog crates are supplied in the cottage, so your dog may be left alone there if crated. The dog fee is €125 for the stay, and there is no damage deposit required, which is a fair arrangement given the extras provided. The hotel is upfront about its policy, sharing the dog terms for review before you book, so there are no surprises on arrival.
The main limitation is that only a few cottages at the resort are designated dog friendly, so availability needs to be checked and confirmed well ahead of travel. There is also a weight limit of 25 lbs, with a maximum of two dogs per room, which rules this out for owners of larger breeds. This stay suits an owner with one or two small dogs who wants beach walks and grassy grounds alongside genuine in-room comforts, and who is happy to book early to secure one of the limited dog friendly cottages. Owners with larger dogs, or those hoping for a dog wash area, dog friendly restaurant dining or an organised dog sitting service, should look elsewhere.

We gathered data directly from the hotel and benchmarked it against thousands of other hotels to accurately and fairly derive its rank.
