Any golfing enthusiast, no matter what their game level or handicap, will be thrilled to organise and book a golf related holiday or short break. Being able to discover new golf courses and to improve golfing swings and techniques can all be part of the appeal for anyone who is even remotely interested in this compelling sport.
Renting holiday homes in a golf-friendly resort can ensure that this popular pastime can be coupled together with a pleasant family holiday environment that the whole household can enjoy.
These holiday villas are generally within close proximity, and indeed can be within walking distance, to native golf courses and valleys. If these villas are not in walking distance of teeing off positions, generally a golf course will be within a few minutes driving distance so there is never far to travel to reach a green.
Often these courses are of a professional standard and are used in world class golfing tournaments, so the quality of the greens is usually superb and the grass and bunkers are always well maintained. Along with the courses, often there are professional and well respected coaches and instructors on hand who can help even the most amateur of players improve their game.
It is normal to be able to book lessons at beginners, intermediate or advanced levels and almost anyone can improve their game a bit after a few lessons and professional tips.
Perfect Getaways has a massive choice of holiday accommodation in a range of European and exotic international destinations, all with top class facilities for the golfer.

Golfing holidays in Spain – the very phrase evokes a delightful image of long green fairways under a warm sun. Golf may have been invented in cold, misty Scotland but it’s best enjoyed under sunny blue skies. And where better than in Spain? Not only does Spain promise year-round sunshine, it’s also home to some of the country’s – indeed Europe’s – best golf courses.
So where are the best golf courses to be found? The fact is you can find golf courses all over Spain. Many are in the tourist haunts of the Costa del Sol and the Algarve. Like so many places on the tourist trail, they tend to be crowded, poor value and lacking in the charm you’ll find in other parts of the country.
If you want to play golf in a real Spanish setting far from the crowds, head for the Costa Almeria in eastern Andalucía. This is one of Spain’s best kept golfing secrets and it’s clear to see why.
For one thing, it’s in the country’s driest province. Andalusia is graced with over 3000 hours of sunshine a year. That means you’re guaranteed a game of golf in the dry pretty much anytime.
Another factor in choosing this part of the country is that life in the Costa Almeria moves to a more relaxed rhythm that the frenetic holiday towns of the Costa del Sol or the Algarve. It’s less crowded and prices are reasonable not being geared towards tourists. Almeria is as beautiful as any part of Spain and offers its own charm reflected in the ancient villages and long gorgeous coastline.
Best of all for the golfer, Almeria has some of the most distinguished golf courses in Spain. Extensive golf course development has been carried out in recent years and many more courses are planned for the future. Currently, Almeria is home to nine quality golf courses. They are La Envía Golf & Spa Resort, Playa Serena, Alboran and Golf Almerimar in the south, and Aguilon, Desert Springs, Marina Golf, Macenas Golf & Beach Resort and Valle del Este in the north. Each has its own unique characteristics. For example, Desert Springs is Europe’s only Arizona desert style golf course and the spa resort of La Envia is a veritable oasis.
All of Almeria’s golf courses are convenient for resorts and the whole area is served by Almeria International Airport. It’s less than an hour’s drive away and offers regular, scheduled and from most UK airports.
When playing golf in , you are participating in the relaxed Spanish lifestyle. Plus, you have the pleasure of being in an area of great natural beauty. You can tee off to dramatic vistas of shore and coastline. And they don’t stand on ceremony here. You can play all year round dressed in shorts and a t-shirt. The infrastructure’s there, too, in the form of shops, bars, hotels, cafes, restaurants and all the other facilities you could need.
Of course, golf is not all the region has to offer. After your 18 holes, you can head off to a tapas bar and feast on local snacks washed down with the local tipple. Later you can head off to a music bar or disco. You can also sample a rich and ancient culture in the art galleries and museums. In short, you’ve got the recipe for perfect golf with the Costa Almeria being the perfect year round golf holiday destination.
So whether you’re on holidays in Spain or whether you’ve decided to acquire your own Spain property, golfing in Spain is one of the country’s great pleasures. The next time you’re looking for a golf holiday in the sun, forget the overrun golfing regions of the Costa del Sol. Instead look into spending your next golf holiday in Almeria.
If you fall under the spell of Spain, you’ll be happy to find that great property deals are another of the country’s charms. Spain propery comes in all types and price ranges. For example, you’ll find quality resorts near all the golf courses and investing in a home here will allow you to live in this golfing haven whenever you please.

Winter isn’t always a welcome season for those keen golfers that would prefer to continue their addiction to the sport throughout the winter months without having to go abroad. However, this purely depends on the golf course and whether it is playable during the wetter winter months.
A popular course for the winter golfers is Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club, based in Thorpeness in Suffolk, the course was built on sandy soil so has perfect draining during the wetter seasons, making it playable all year round. In fact, the course was only closed for half a day last winter.
Recently refurbished, the Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club is set amongst the Suffolk coastal heathland and the golf course offers a tough challenge for all levels of player.
The course is laid with sandy soil and heath land and Thorpeness also has the advantage of a low rainfall, which certainly guarantees a healthy competition of golf can be played.
While other golf courses are sometimes forced to close due to bad weather and water logged greens, Thorpeness green keepers work hard to keep the course looking and feeling great to rid you of those golfing winter blues.
Thorpeness is set in a unique and relaxing coastline of Suffolk, its stunning 18 hole golf course, with the 18th Hole framed by ‘The House in the Clouds’ and ‘The Thorpeness Windmill’ is complemented by the peaceful and stylish atmosphere the club house and hotel provides, certainly making this golf course the place to defeat the golfing blues!
Designed by James Braid in 1922, this Suffolk golf course winds through silver birch, pine trees, gorse and heather and was described by the Sunday Telegraph Golfing Guide as “Reminiscent of the inland glories of Sunningdale and Woodhall Spa”.
Golf breaks are available throughout the year and this season sees the introduction of a couple of breaks for both the golfer and non-golfer. Fish & Pheasant weekends starting in January, includes free golf for the weekend and for those just wishing to explore the area and surrounding countryside and coastal villages, along with a host of new events happening in 2010 that will include golf breaks with cooking classes.
Also, some great Winter golf days and green fees, continuing until March from just £19.50 an introduction of a Golf Breaks Sunday Driver which includes overnight accommodation with a full English breakfast, three courses dinner and two round of golf from just £75.
