About Us

Who We Are

Golf Travel Centre was founded by golfers, for golfers. We grew out of a shared frustration with one-size-fits-all holiday packages that failed to account for what truly makes a golf trip special: the right course, at the right time, with everything taken care of. Since opening our doors, we have dedicated ourselves exclusively to golf travel, building a team of specialists who eat, sleep, and breathe the game. Whether you’re a low-handicapper chasing links perfection in Ireland or a social golfer looking for a sun-soaked resort week in Portugal, we know exactly how to craft the ideal experience for you.

Why Choose Us

Choosing Golf Travel Centre means choosing a partner who genuinely understands what you’re looking for. We don’t just book flights and hotels, we architect complete golf journeys. Our relationships with courses and resorts worldwide give us access to tee times, preferred rates, and exclusive packages that aren’t available to the general public. We handle every logistical detail, from airport transfers and equipment hire to on-course advice and post-round dining recommendations, so that by the time you arrive, the only thing left to think about is your swing.

Our Team

Every member of our team is an active golfer with hands-on experience of the destinations they recommend. We don’t rely on brochures or hearsay; our specialists have personally played the courses they sell, stayed in the accommodation they suggest, and navigated the logistics they plan for you. This means you benefit from authentic, up-to-date knowledge at every step. We’re a relatively small team by design, because we believe that personal service and genuine expertise matter far more than scale. When you call or email us, you’ll speak to someone who actually knows your destination and cares about your trip

What We Offer

Our portfolio covers the full spectrum of golf travel. We specialise in tailored individual and couples breaks, competitive society trips, corporate golf days abroad, and large group tours. Popular destinations include Portugal, Spain, England, Scotland, Ireland, the USA, and South Africa, though our network extends far beyond these. We can build a short weekend escape around a single iconic course or map out a two-week grand tour visiting multiple countries. Whatever the scope, we approach every booking with the same attention to detail and commitment to quality.

Planning Your Trip

Getting started is simple. Reach out to us with a rough idea of where you’d like to go, how many are travelling, and when you’d like to travel. Even a vague wish list is enough. From there, one of our specialists will take the time to understand your group’s skill levels, budget, and preferences before putting together a bespoke proposal. We present clear, transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and we’ll refine the itinerary until it’s exactly right. Once you’re happy, we manage every booking on your behalf and remain your dedicated point of contact from the moment you confirm to the moment you return home.

Our Commitment to You

We understand that a golf holiday is a significant investment, both financially and in terms of anticipation. That’s why we hold ourselves to the highest standards when it comes to reliability, communication, and value. All bookings are handled with full financial protection, and our team is available around the clock whenever you’re travelling, should anything unexpected arise. We won’t rest until you’re completely satisfied, and we measure our success purely by the quality of the experiences you have and whether you choose to travel with us again. The fact that a large proportion of our business comes from returning clients and personal recommendations tells us we’re getting it right.

Our Approach to Sustainable Golf Travel

We believe the world’s great golf courses are worth protecting. That’s why we actively seek out partners who demonstrate a genuine commitment to environmental stewardship, from courses that manage water usage responsibly to resorts that invest in their local communities. We encourage our clients to consider offsetting travel emissions where possible, and we work with ground operators who share our values. Sustainable golf travel isn’t a marketing buzzword for us; it’s a responsibility we take seriously as people who love the game and the landscapes it inhabits.

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend booking as early as possible, particularly for popular destinations and peak travel periods. Courses such as those on the west coast of Ireland or the Scottish Highlands can be booked up 12 to 18 months in advance during the summer season. That said, we also have access to last-minute availability through our network of partners, so don’t hesitate to get in touch even if your travel dates are approaching quickly. The sooner you contact us, the more options we can offer you.

Your booking is fully protected and we act as your dedicated advocate if anything goes wrong. If a course cancels or a flight disruption affects your itinerary, we handle all rebooking and negotiations on your behalf. Our team is contactable around the clock while you’re travelling, and we have contingency plans prepared for the most common disruptions. We have long-standing relationships with alternative suppliers in every destination, which means we can usually find a quality solution quickly and with minimum stress to you.

Absolutely. Mixed-ability groups are very common, and we plan itineraries with this in mind. We’ll select courses and formats that allow everyone to enjoy their round regardless of handicap, and we can advise on which venues offer the most flexible and welcoming experience for mixed groups. If your party includes complete beginners, we can also arrange introductory lessons or more relaxed, scenery-focused courses where the emphasis is on fun rather than score.

Yes, corporate and group travel is a significant part of what we do. We regularly organise company golf days abroad, client entertainment trips, and society tours for groups ranging from eight to over sixty people. We can manage everything from the golf and accommodation to evening dinners, prize sponsorship, and team-building activities. For corporate clients, we also offer branded itinerary documents and dedicated account management. Get in touch with a rough brief and we’ll put together a proposal tailored to your objectives and budget.
