Passionate About Golf Travel
At Golf Travel Centre, we only bring people on board who genuinely love the game. Our team are golfers first and travel specialists second, and that order matters. Every destination we sell is one we’ve personally experienced, the courses, the caddies, and the clubhouses. That firsthand knowledge is what separates us from booking engines and generalist travel agents. When we recommend a particular tee time, a specific resort, or a hidden gem of a course, it’s because we’ve been there ourselves and we know it’s right for you. Your trip deserves that level of care, and that’s exactly what we bring to every single booking.
Patrick McCaghy
CEO & Founder
Patrick is a true veteran of the golf travel industry, and the driving force behind everything Golf Travel Centre stands for. Patrick has played courses across the globe, from the iconic links of Ireland and Scotland to celebrated layouts in continental Europe, the US, and further afield in Asia, and that breadth of firsthand experience shapes every decision the company makes. When Patrick recommends a course or a resort, it comes from years of playing, comparing, and refining his judgment on the ground. He’s the reason our clients trust us with their most ambitious golf travel ambitions.

Paul Cockman
Sales Director
Paul has spent his entire career in golf travel, accumulating over eleven years of specialist industry experience that he now brings to his role as Sales Director at Golf Travel Centre. He joined us in early 2019 and has been a cornerstone of our sales operation ever since, developing long-standing relationships with clients who trust him to get the details right every time. Paul has a natural ability to understand what a group really wants from a trip, beyond the obvious, and translate that into an itinerary that consistently exceeds expectations. Whether he’s organising a large society tour, a corporate golf day abroad, or a carefully crafted break for a small group of serious golfers, his approach is always personal, thorough, and rooted in genuine passion for the game.

Nathan Lacey
Sales Director
Nathan joined Golf Travel Centre as a Consultant in 2019 and quickly established himself as a trusted figure within the team, spending over five years building deep client relationships and developing a thorough knowledge of our portfolio. His background before golf travel gave him an exceptionally sharp eye for detail, quality, and the kind of customer experience that genuinely stands out, having spent the earlier part of his career in fast-paced commercial and planning roles within the retail industry. Those skills translate directly into golf travel, where the difference between a good trip and a great one often comes down to precisely that level of attention. Now heading up sales, Nathan brings a considered, client-first approach that our clients respond to very well.

Gareth Llewellyn
Global Head of Product
Gareth is the person responsible for ensuring that every destination and resort we offer genuinely earns its place in our portfolio. In his role as Global Head of Product, he leads the design of our signature Golf & itineraries, personally vetting new courses and resorts to make sure they meet the standards our clients expect. It’s a role he stepped into naturally after spending nearly four years heading up our International Sales operation, experience that gives him a sharp commercial eye alongside his deep product knowledge. With over 14 years in the golf travel industry, Gareth has an instinctive understanding of what separates a truly exceptional trip from a merely good one, and he applies that judgement rigorously to everything we bring to market. If it’s in our portfolio, Gareth has signed off on it.

The True Value of Expertise
There’s a big difference between knowing a destination exists and truly knowing it. Our team has spent years, collectively, decades, travelling to, playing, and scrutinising the courses and resorts we recommend. We know which layouts suit low handicappers and which are better suited to a relaxed society outing. We know when the queues build up, which months offer the best conditions, and which local operators actually deliver on their promises. That depth of knowledge isn’t something you can replicate with a search engine. It’s earned through experience, and it’s the foundation of every itinerary we build for our clients.
