Golfing breaks

A series of affordable UK and worldwide golf breaks for groups has been launched by South Quay Travel & Leisure.

The Essex-based group travel specialist has created a series of packages to various locations and with a range of durations. 

South Quay’s 16-strong golf breaks portfolio features some of the best European, worldwide, UK and Irish golf resorts and courses including the world famous Belfry, which has hosted more Ryder Cup tournaments than any other venue in the world. 

A same package at The Belfry includes accommodation, bed and breakfast and 36 holes of golf (PGA and Brabazon) on the iconic greens. 

The 550-acre resort in Sutton Coldfield does luxury on a world class scale and there are opportunities to relax in the stunning leisure club and spa and socialise in bars and restaurants including the Bel Air Nightclub.

Other interesting options include the five-course PGA Resort in Florida, the multiple collection from Dom Pedro in the sunny Algarve, seven nights all-inclusive in Mauritius, a short break in glamorous Marbella or a get-away-from-it-all stay on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way.   

Groups can also choose from a selection of golf trips to Wales, including The Vale Resort which boasts two championship golf courses; the award-winning par 73 Wales National, a leading inland course and the par 72 Lakes course. 

South Quay has ensured that the golf breaks are based at resorts with spa facilities to appeal to couples.

Managing director Peter Stratton said: “We see more and more group travel centred on hobbies and pastimes, with organisers getting a group of like-minded individuals together to share their interest. 

“To cater for this market, a low minimum number golf offering seemed the obvious place to start. 

“I think we have put together a world class selection that won’t cost the earth.”
