GOLF HOLIDAYS ⛳

Golf holidays in Spain are perhaps the most obvious choice. Think golden beaches, luxury golf resorts, and top-class courses all topped off with days and days of glorious sunshine. Here's some great destinations to consider for your next golf escape:

• 📍 Costa del Sol – AKA the Costa del Golf – is known as Europe’s premier golfing destination, with 70 world-class courses in popular resorts such as Marbella and Estepona.
• 📍 Costa Blanca has an great range of world-class golf courses up and down the coast, such as those at Melia Villaitana.

Long considered a rising star in the golfing world, Turkey’s recently been getting its dues thanks to a stunning landscape and abundance of world-class courses. Belek is the place to go – a picture-perfect coastal town boasting luxurious resorts dedicated to a golfing aficionado’s every whim.

Notable Turkish golf courses include:

• The Seno Dune Course – as the name suggests, it’s famous for its huge sand traps and tricky water hazards
• The Montgomerie Maxx Royal – designed by legendary pro, Colin Montgomerie
• The National Golf Course – where the Turkish Open is held, attracting elite professionals every year to its greens and fairways.

The Algarve in Portugal is ideal when it comes to unforgettable golf breaks. With nearly 300 days of sunshine a year, dramatic cliffside terrain, and some of the most prestigious courses in the whole of Europe, it’s easy to see why.

Top locations on the Algarve for a golf break:

• Vilamoura
• Albufeira

Vilamoura is the place to go for many an elite golfer. Home to acclaimed courses as Dom Pedro and Vale do Lobo, it’s also a vibrant hub of activity, with some of the best bars, restaurants, and boutique shops in the whole of the Algarve.

Albufeira offers fairways overlooking beautiful sandy beaches, and buzzing nightlife that’s ready and waiting when you’re ready to hang up your clubs.

When it comes to golfing in Cyprus, it’s all about the spectacular coastal region of Paphos. Here you’ll find four championship-level courses that will truly test your mettle, alongside unforgettable sea views, and warm weather that practically demands that you wear your best tailored shorts.

The most famous course in Paphos – and indeed Cyprus – is Aphrodite Hills:  an 18-hole championship green known for its dramatic tee shots across a deep natural ravine. But don’t overlook Minthis Golf Club, which boasts a course that winds through olive groves and the site of a 12th-century monastery high above the coast.

Sicily might not be the first name on your lips when it comes to golfing destinations, but trust us, it’s worthy of your attention. First off, the mild climate means you’ll enjoy teeing off any time of year, plus the courses are generally less crowded than their Spanish and Portuguese counterparts.

The standout venue in Sicily is without doubt Vedura Resort, home to two championship courses that stretch out along the island’s gorgeous coastline. Or you could opt to play at Donnafugata Golf Resort in the southeast, where you can combine your golf holiday with visits to the UNESCO-listed Baroque towns of Ragusa, Modica, and Noto.

Is there anywhere that’s more synonymous with golf than Scotland? Not only was the modern game invented here, but you’ll find over 550 courses up and down the country. Little wonder then that Scotland is known as the sport’s spiritual home.

Considering a weekend break in Edinburgh? Well, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to golf. Just east to of the Scottish capital is East Lothian, where you’ll find a stretch of coastline that’s often referred to as Scotland’s Golf Coast. It’s home to some of the most famous – and oldest – courses in the world, including Muirfield, North Berwick West Link, and Royal Musselburgh.

One of the most visited holiday destinations in the world, Greece is also something of a hidden gem for golfing fanatics. Expect a warm, dependable climate for year-round visits, picturesque beaches, and areas of outstanding natural beauty. Here are two of our favourite Greek islands for a golfing holiday:

Crete:

Greece’s largest island is also its most high profile when it comes to memorable golfing escapes. Crete is home to the challenging mountain desert-style terrain of the Crete Golf Club, as well as a smaller nine-hole course at Porto Elounda.

Corfu:

Located just off the northeast coast of mainland Greece, there’s only one course you need to worry about in Corfu – thankfully, it’s a real stand-out. The historical Corfu Golf Club, located in the Ropa Valley, was designed by renowned architects and features a championship layout with seven lakes.
