Over the last two years, more than double the numbers of Brits have decided to go solo on holiday, escaping the stresses of everyday life to pursue personal interests whether sporting, relaxing or culturally enriching.

Solo’s Golf is the UK’s leading specialist for solo golf travellers – holidays for golfers at any level who share a passion for the sport and mastering their game. Breaks range from golf clinics and festivals with competitions, to ‘friendlies’ for beginners, handicap and non handicap in the UK, Europe and around the world. 

The new golf programme boasts exotic destinations in South Africa and Marrakech, new European Breaks in La Manga and Cascais and more locally The Vale Golf Classic in Wales.  All trips are hosted by an experienced Solo’s tour leader who organises on and off course experiences.

Escape for some sporting winter sun or a local weekend away with one of these tantalising trips.
