CURRENT TRIPS -
The Highlands of Scotland - June 2026
I am delighted to present this trip to Scotland in the Summer of 2026. We will meet at Edinburgh airport and travel up to the Highlands to enjoy the very best that the region has to offer - from the historic splendour of Royal Dornoch to the modern classic of Castle Stuart.
We will also be among the first to play Tom Doak's new course, Old Petty, which opens just a month before we are there. I have also included some of my favourite 'gems' in the area. Highlands golf is very special and we will be seeing the very best courses that the area has to offer.
For those of you who haven't been on a trip with me before it is a great way to meet up with other like-minded fans of travel and golf in a relaxed environment. I include several group meals during the trip and we will have a little (very relaxed) competition running for those who want to take part in that.
The West of Ireland - June 2026
I've been excited about launching this trip for some time now! Many people are familiar with the courses of Northern Ireland, or the South West of Ireland, but far fewer know the west coast of the country as well.
Recent visits by the likes of No Laying Up and Tom Coyne have started to spread the word about the quality of golf on the Wild Atlantic Way but still relatively few have visited.
Golf here is a little rawer at times than it is in the tourist hotspots you will find elsewhere in the country. You are far more likely to being playing alongside locals at the courses - most of which predominantly cater for their members - than busloads of overseas visitors.
This hospitality here is fantastic - expect to hear plenty of live music, consume plenty of pints of Guinness if that's your thing, and eat well.
You may not have thought about a golf trip to Colombia before but this is a fantastic opportunity for some winter sun in early 2026! Colombia has undergone a transformation in recent years as it has become a great destination for the international visitor with a wonderful climate, fascinating history along with high levels of hospitality. Throw in some fun golf and it has all the makings of a lovely trip!
New Zealand - November 2025
SOLD OUT
A golf trip to New Zealand really is unlike any other.
For those of us travelling from Northern Europe it is certainly quite a long trip to get there. But when you arrive you are greeted by a country of such beauty and such diversity that you instantly know every hour of the flight was worth it. The golf in New Zealand is thrilling, but it is also fairly spread out so I have constructed this itinerary to ensure that we will experience both the great golf and also have the opportunity to see some of the country too.
We will see both wonderful modern courses, like the North and South courses at Te Arai Links and Cape Kidnappers and also classics such as Arrowtown and Paraparaumu Beach. It’s a great trip and I hope you can join.
Ireland - September 2025
SOLD OUT
The Open returns to Royal Portrush next year, and we will be walking in the steps of legends when we play the course just six weeks after the tournament. We will also play Royal County Down - consistently rated one of the very best courses in the world.
Add in rounds at Ardglass, Portstewart, St Patrick's Links, The Island and The European and this has all the makings of a great trip.
We are staying at excellent hotels throughout and several group meals are included. These trips are a great way to meet like-minded souls while enjoying some of the best courses in the world. I hope you can join!
