UK golf tours - everything you need to know

Put simply, a golf tour is a break in which you play multiple courses, while usually based in a centrally located hotel in a town like Bournemouth or popular golfing region like East Lothian. You’ll be within easy driving distance of the best courses in the area and situated nearby the local bars and restaurants.

While a golf tour gives you the chance to play multiple courses and stay in a convenient location, a golf tour experience takes things to the next level. Think of it as an upgrade: the same freedom to play a variety of top-quality courses, but paired with added touches that transform your trip into something truly unforgettable.

With a golf tour experience, every detail is carefully curated – from luxury accommodation and private transfers, to tee times at bucket-list venues and exclusive off-course activities. Whether it’s combining your rounds with sightseeing in historic cities, whiskey tasting in Scotland, or dining at renowned restaurants, the experience goes beyond the fairways.

For inspiration, picture Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, a rugged coastal route dotted with world-class links like Carne, Enniscrone, and County Sligo, complemented by gin distilleries, traditional music sessions, and seaweed baths in Sligo town. Or try Premium Tour Experience along Ayrshire’s Golf Coast in Scotland: a curated five-night itinerary featuring five rounds on iconic links, luxury lodge stays, whisky tastings, and a day at Ayr Racecourse.

We offer a wide range of accommodation to suit every style of trip. From charming B&Bs and family-run hotels for a cosy, authentic feel, to five-star city hotels and luxury resorts for those looking to upgrade to a true golf tour experience, we’ll book it all and help you find the perfect place.

We have tours across the UK, from the West Coast of Scotland where you can take on Royal Troon and Turnberry, through to the South Coast of England with heathland classics including Ferndown and Broadstone.

If you’re looking for some real hidden gems, why not stay in Leeds and play Ganton, Moortown and Alwoodley – three of the best inland courses in Britain with storied and much-fabled histories.

Whether it’s a bucket-list tour playing the royal trio of Southport, or a trip to Newcastle to combine golf and nightlife, we can accommodate for all budgets and styles.
