Welcome… to golfing heaven

The truth is that despite winning various golf awards, Wales, as a golfing destination, is still relatively unknown to the vast golfing masses from around the world. With the 38th Ryder Cup matches hosted by Wales in 2010 this has begun to change. Why not join the increasing numbers of golfing visitors and take advantage of accessible courses, comfortable accommodation and golf breaks at affordable prices.

Surrounded 3 parts by water and with spectacular countryside in its heartlands, Wales boasts some of the finest links and inland golf courses in the British Isles and indeed Europe. With Scotland known as the home of golf and Ireland famous for golf and the “craic”, Wales offers golfers a warm welcome – “croeso” – and great fun on and off the courses – “hwyl”. We have our own brand of great golf!

The Wales Golf Holiday Company is the largest in-bound golf tour operator in Wales with a long and distinguished history for providing memorable golf breaks. Tee it up here in Wales and be sure of a great golfing experience in any one of our 4 golfing regions: South, North, Mid or West.

Remember your break is organised by golfers for golfers. See you on the fairways…
