Golf Holidays for Non-Golfers

Why Settle for Compromise?

Whether you’re chasing a birdie or a massage, our expert team curates bespoke packages at over 3,500 destinations worldwide.

We understand that a great trip is about more than just the scorecard, it’s about the memories made at dinner, the relaxation found poolside and the thrill of exploring new places together.

Partners of a golfer should focus on resorts offering extensive non-golf activities like spas, water parks, fine dining, cultural tours or nature adventures, with popular destinations including Spain, Turkey, Cyprus and Scotland.

Activities for Non-Golfers
• Relaxation: Spas, pools, beaches, fine dining.
• Sports: Tennis, high ropes, archery, horse riding, water parks.
• Family Fun: Kids' clubs, family-friendly courses for beginners.
• Culture & Sightseeing: Historic castles, distillery tours, nature reserves, local markets.

How to Choose
• Research nearby towns for day trips if the resort is more golf-focused.
• Look for resorts that offer activities for golfers & non-golfers or family-friendly options.

Exceptional Dining Experiences

Finding the perfect holiday is all about balance. While the golfers are dreaming of perfectly manicured fairways and the thrill of the 18th hole, you deserve a getaway that caters to your own tastes, literally. At Your Golf Travel, we understand that a truly exceptional trip happens both on and off the course.

Experience the world’s most prestigious resorts where world-class golf is matched only by award-winning gastronomy. From sun-drenched terraces serving fresh Mediterranean delicacies to historic estates boasting Michelin-starred mastery, these destinations ensure that the "19th hole" is the highlight of everyone's day.

Explore our favorite pairings of luxury golf and elite dining, designed to ensure every guest leaves with a full heart and a satisfied palate.

Luxury Resorts for Relaxation

A world-class golf resort is only half about the fairways. At Your Golf Travel we select destinations where the "off-course" experience is just as spectacular as the "on-course" challenge.

While the golfer is chasing birdies you could be sinking into a hydrotherapy pool at a Five-Star spa or sipping a crisp local vintage overlooking the Mediterranean. These are not just golf courses; they are sanctuaries of luxury designed for those who appreciate the finer things in life.

Relaxing Spa & Championship Play

The ultimate getaway is built on balance, we help you pair world-class fairways with the pinnacle of relaxation. Whether you are looking for a quick overnight escape in the heart of Northamptonshire at Whittlebury Park or a bucket-list retreat to the iconic Old Course Hotel in St Andrews, we have the finest destinations where the hospitality is as legendary as the fairways.

From the rugged beauty of Lough Erne Resort in Northern Ireland to the refined elegance of Hanbury Manor in Hertfordshire, these venues offer more than just a place to stay. They are sanctuaries where golfers can test their mettle on historic designed courses while non-golfers indulge in revitalising treatments, thermal suites and tranquil hydrotherapy pools.

The Best of Both Worlds: Golf & City Lights

Who says a golf break has to be all about the bunkers? If you are looking to sweep your partner off their feet with a trip that balances championship fairways with the electric buzz of the city, you have come to the right place.

We have handpicked a selection of UK destinations where world-class golf meets legendary nightlife. While one of you conquers the links, the other can dive into boutique shopping, iconic landmarks and cultural hotspots. Then, as the sun sets, reunite for an evening of fine dining, chic cocktail bars and the kind of vibrant energy only the UK's top cities can provide.

From the historic streets of Edinburgh to the famous docks of Liverpool, these are the ultimate "best of both worlds" breaks designed for golfers and their social-savvy partners alike.

Beyond the Fairway: Global Golf & Glamour

If you think a golf holiday means sacrificing your evening plans, think again. We specialise in destinations where the off-course experience is just as spectacular as the greens themselves. Whether you are looking for Michelin-starred dining in a historic European capital or a sunset cocktail overlooking the desert dunes, we have curated the world's most vibrant spots for couples who want it all.

When evening falls, the real magic begins. From the high-octane energy of Dubai to the soulful jazz clubs of Madrid, these global hotspots guarantee that the fun doesn't end at the 18th hole.
