East England is living proof that you don’t have to cross the channel to get a little luxury. Golf breaks in the UK offer just as much five star service and sunshine (given the right luck) as you might find in Europe, and all much easier to get to! Take a golf break to Suffolk, Norfolk or Essex and discover landscape replete with history, poetry (Constable, Gainsborough and Wordsworth to name a few), and gorgeous links land.

Our favourite has to be Barnham Broom golf – this exellect resort is more than just a hotel with golf courses. Overlooking some gorgeous countryside, luxurious accommodations abutt a spa, a fitness club, a sauna, a steam-room, a heated indoor pool, a Brasserie, a bar and a wonderful cocktail lounge. If you are looking for a golf break in Norfolk, look no further than this comprehensive resort with everything you might need to relax, unwind and enjoy your game.

We recommend a trip into Cambridge, to brush up against the academics in their native territory. A truly beautiful city with famous a cathedral, spend some time wandering the cobbled streets and soaking up some history. You probably won’t get smarter, but Trinity College is still worth the visit anyway.
