About Golf Planet Holidays

Specialists in luxury golf holidays — hand-picked hotels, championship courses, planned by people who actually play the game.

Our team has walked every fairway we sell — from Quinta do Lago to Belle Mare, Fancourt to Le Touquet. Forty years of relationships with hotels and operators means we get rates, suites and tee times that aren’t on price-comparison sites.
