When it comes to golf holidays, there isn’t much that can beat getting away with the ladies for a relaxing escape.

Whether your idea of heaven is sitting on the terrace sharing a bottle of wine, relaxing in the spa, or simply playing as many fantastic golf courses as time will allow, we count down the destinations that make for an unforgettable UK golf break.

The Gleneagles Resort

Scotland’s most iconic resort, Gleneagles has everything you could ever wish for in a luxury golf break. Michelin Star cuisine, a luxury spa, and, of course, three championship golf courses. The King's course has seen golf’s aristocracy walk its immaculate fairways over the past century. The Queen's course is every bit as enchanting. Meanwhile, the PGA Centenary course provided a stunning backdrop to the 2014 Ryder Cup.

Golfers and non-golfers alike will be spoilt for choice at the Perthshire resort, which is set to host the Solheim Cup in two years’ time. Off-road driving, croquet, archery, and falconry are just a few of the more traditional pursuits on offer. Meanwhile, you could easily while away a weekend in The Spa at Gleneagles by ESPA, which offers a vast range of treatments.
