The Best Holidays for Golf Lovers – And What to Wear

Words by Tony Wilkes


Golf is not just a sport – it’s a lifestyle. As important as the course is the clubhouse and the socialising after you’ve played the full 18. It’s this that Abercrombie & Kent understands. With six decades of expertise, our world-class travel advisors will curate the best trip to suit you. Be it a tour of Scotland or a tee-off among tropical beaches, here are three memorable holidays for golfers.

7-night tailor-made trip from £5,355 per person

Scottish Whisky and Golf

Any list of the world’s finest golf courses will surely start with Scotland. It’s here that golf was invented – first recorded in the Middle Ages – and it’s to Scotland that we owe the game we play today. Starting in Edinburgh, this tailor-made holiday encompasses the most famous and challenging courses, from Kingsbarns at St Andrews to Gleneagles’ PGA course, host to both the Ryder and Solheim Cups. When you’re not teeing-off, you’ll enjoy the widest whisky selection Scotland has to offer, with expert guidance from a senior whisky ambassador. Perfection.

Paradis Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa, Mauritius

A haven for golfers and families alike, this luxury island resort offers suites and villas set among tropical gardens or on the beachfront. But it’s the spectacular 18-hole championship golf course that wins it for us, complete with a leading Golf Academy where pros are on hand to better your game with the help of advanced computer software. When you’re not on the green, you’ll find plenty of water sports from diving to windsurfing and deep-sea fishing, plus four gourmet restaurants. The grilled seafood is a speciality.

Terre Blanche Hôtel Spa Golf Resort, Provence

In striking distance of the French Riviera, this picturesque resort boasts a stunning location among the hills of Provence, complete with private terraces and spectacular views – and, of course, a first-class golf course. After the game, enjoy a spa treatment or visit its range of saunas, steam rooms and swimming pools; otherwise, head into the surrounding area where you’ll find wineries, markets and fantastic restaurants.
