Golf Holidays For The Whole Family

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

Unless you are an absolute golfing fanatic, you won’t really want to spend every single hour of daylight on the Green during golf holidays, will you? If you answer yes to this question, the next couple of paragraphs won’t be of interest to you, but for those golfers who like to combine their game with exploring the region you are staying in, there is plenty of scope if you take golf holidays in Spain or Portugal. Both countries have built a great reputation for providing superb settings in which to play golf and both have thousands of other things to do when you are not on the course.

Many golfers take their families with them when they go on holiday, and if you choose the right golf accommodation you can all be sure of a great time. While you are out on the course in the morning, your family can relax in one of the many golf villas available. When you return, you can have afternoons out together exploring the many historic sites which are nearby.

If that isn’t your cup of tea, you can make the most of the fantastic beaches which are never more than half an hours drive away from most golf apartments in Portugal, especially in the Algarve. Whatever you are looking for when it comes to finding golf course accommodation in Portugal or Spain, make sure you have a look at what Pack Your Clubs have to offer. You’re sure to find the perfect golf apartments and villas right here.

Keep Your Non-golfing Partner Happy

Tuesday, November 9th, 2010

What happens if you are a keen golfer, but your partner does not share your enthusiasm for the game? The chances are that you will take golfing holidays with some fellow golfers, and this may lead to further tensions with your partner. So, how about combining your golf holidays with a family break, which means that you get your chance to get out on the green while enjoying whatever the region you choose has to offer.

If you choose to rent golf apartments which are near to the best courses in Spain and Portugal, you can be out early in the morning to play and home in time to meet up with the family. The afternoons can then be spent exploring the fantastic scenery which surrounds most of the courses in Spain and Portugal. For example, have a look at golf course accommodation in Portugal and you will be able to find golf apartments which are located near historic sites which you will be able to visit with the family.

The same applies to golf villas in Spain, but if you are not particularly interested in visiting historic sites, there are always the superb beaches which make Spain and Portugal a magnet for tens of thousands of British holidaymakers every year. With a little bit of planning – which means choosing golf apartments in Portugal and Spain carefully – you can make your golf holidays a success for everyone, even the non-golfers in the family!

Golfing Holidays With The Family

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010

All keen golfers are glad of the attention they can expect from specialist golf travel agencies, but if you are of a more adventurous disposition, you may prefer to tailor a trip to your own personal tastes rather than merely follow the crowds.

This is particularly true if you want to combine golfing holidays for yourself with a non-golfing holiday for the rest of the family. If you can make your own arrangements, then none of the family will feel left out of the holiday fun. Choosing your course carefully will help ensure that the rest of the family has plenty else to do while you are savouring the pleasures of the fairway at, say, Quinta da Marinha.

What helps make the holiday memorable for the rest of the family is also the quality of the golf accommodation on offer. Here you can allow your imagination free reign to choose what best suits your pocket, as well as meeting the needs and wants of the other members of your party. Do they want access to a pool? Or to quality shopping? Or maybe to historical and cultural tourist attractions? Options such as these are available to you if you choose to design your own trip.

Here at Pack Your Clubs, we specialize in accommodation for golfing holidays. We offer apartments close to some of the finest golf courses in the world, so you get the best of the golf, and your family enjoys the best of a holiday abroad.
