Our Expert's Best Locations For Stay and Play Golf Packages

What our experts don't know isn't worth knowing about. We've been organising group trips since 2002, so if that isn't top knowledge then we don't know what is. Check out our list to give you insights on the best locations for stay-and-play golf packages.

Portugal

Whether you choose the golfing mecca the Algarve or the vibrant city of Lisbon, you're in for an absolute treat. Portugal is famous for three things: beautiful weather, stunning resorts, and world-class courses. Let's not forget the sublime selection of both Super Bock and Sagres.

If our experts had to narrow down the stellar stay-and-play package, it would be Quinta do Lago. Possibly the finest golf resort in all of Europe, this one is essentially a bucket lister. The crème de la crème. It has everything you could need from restaurants, beaches, and three championship loops.

Spain

The original golfer's paradise. For years, Spain's top golfing areas have people flocking worldwide and returning due to its perfect golf weather, iconic party locations, and championship resorts. You're never short of lively locations when deciding where to stay in Spain.

We would have to choose Arabella Golf's Castillo Hotel Son Vida. It's nothing shy of perfection. Located in Majorca, you can stay and play any time of year and experience an epic group golf trip. Not to mention it has the Majorca Golf Open 2022 course just a putting distance from the hotel.

England

It's no surprise that England is on this list. Putting aside our brilliant party culture, England boasts some of Europe's finest courses and luxurious resorts. While it's best to play in the summer, you can still thrash your friends on a stunning links course year-round. Or you could whoop them on a PGA Tour parkland course. We'll let you decide.

Our favourite stay and play might be Cumberwell. Situated just outside of Bath, the luxury self-catering accommodation provides its guests with four different 9-hole loops to choose from. They vary in difficulty and make for an excellent challenge. So, you don't need to leave the duffer golfer back at home and all the group can have a crack.

Ireland

Ireland is home to some of the world's top 100. The natural, rugged, and undulated terrain cannot be replicated anywhere globally, and this has created some of the world's best links. Add to the list the premium resorts on the grounds and you've bagged yourself the complete golf trip package.

While Ireland is blessed with stunning stay-and-play locations, our expert's favourite is clear. Portmarnock Resort Hotel. Located near Dublin, a golf course featuring the world's top 50, 5-star facilities, and an authentic Irish culture experience, this resort ticks every box. And that's without mentioning the Jameson halfway house that serves Guinness and whiskey. Why not have both?

FAQ

What are the best stay & play golf packages?

It's hard to pin down the winning package. It depends on location, what hotel facilities you want, the activities post-golf, and the quality of courses. A favourite and bucket-lister for all golfers is Quinta do Lago, located in the Algarve, Portugal, because of the 5-star hotel and having some of Europe's best golf courses.

What is the best time for a stay & play golf package?

If you want to experience the pinnacle of holiday golf, it's got to be the summer months. From May to early September, you're guaranteed warm weather and sun almost anywhere. The Algarve and Majorca are favourites because of the perfect weather year-round. Why not escape the bleak English weather with some winter sun?

Why book a stay & play golf package?

With a stay and play golf package, you're booking both the accommodation and the golf course all in one. Everything you need is sorted, from the hotel rooms, restaurants, bars, and green fees. It's the best way to organise a golf holiday.
