There are a number of sports that go hand in hand and one of the more popular combinations is Golf and Horse Racing. Both offer an experience in the great outdoors (unless it is raining of course – that’s when you hit the bar/club house) and many racing and golf professionals take part in both as a hobby and pastime… it’s a sporting match made in heaven.

There are numerous golf courses and racecourses around the UK, but why limit yourself to what is on offer on your doorstep. Head further afield to explore some of the world’s best golf courses alongside some epic racing events. From Cheltenham Festival to the Dubai World Cup, there is something for all golf and racing fans.  Our sister company Racing Breaks, are the best in the business to ensure you get the best of both worlds…

Racing Breaks offer an array of packages to suit all of your needs for attending The Festival. What better way to top off a day at The Festival with your friends, than with a round of golf on the Twenty Ten course at Celtic Manor or the Brabazon course at the Belfry. This is certainly up there as the best golf and horse racing break. Packages start from just £209pp;

Dubai World Cup 2021

The Dubai World Cup is the perfect Racing Break for anyone wanting to experience the splendour that Dubai is so well known for. Enjoy the richest race day in the world taking centre stage and the chance to add a round of golf or two at some of the world’s best golf courses too.

Pick from a number of courses and play at any time of day…or night, as most golf courses are floodlit, offering night golf. Some favourites are the Els Club; renowned as one of the finest in the Middle East, Emirates Golf Club and the Dubai Creek which overlooks the historical stretch of water around which Dubai was built.

Don’t you think that a round of golf that is almost guaranteed warmth, sunshine, immaculately manicured greens and stunning suburban surroundings sounds like heaven? We certainly do!

Grand National 2021

The Grand National is the nation’s favourite race and one that attracts many spectators from all over. Unfortunately this year’s event was cancelled, like many others around the world, and so next year will be all the more worthwhile! The nation eagerly awaits the return of Tiger Roll in his bid to make history with a third win of the Grand National.

Racing Breaks offer packages starting from £129pp which include all you need to enjoy a day out at your chosen day. Treat yourself and make more of your racing break, by staying at the Worsley Park Marriott Hotel and Country Club. It is the perfect place to unwind and rejuvenate before a round of golf the following day. Situated on the outskirts of Aintree, this hotel offers a tranquil escape amidst 200 acres of scenic parkland.

Worsley Park Golf Club welcomes golfers of all skill and experience levels with an 18-hole championship course, a driving range and a putting green.
