Are you planning on booking a next golf break in the UK? Well then look no further than contacting golf holidays direct who are specialists in finding great value golf breaks. Below is a list of some of the best golf courses in England, Wales and Scotland to consider booking your next golf break today!

There are currently nine courses in the Open Championship rota, with England home to four of them. Separated by only 60 miles of rugged Lancashire coastline, Royal Liverpool, Birkdale and Lytham & St Anne’s have hosted three of the past seven Opens. Royal St George’s (where our very own Darren Clarke secured his maiden major) is one of three venues on the Kent coast to have hosted the Claret Jug, along with former Open host courses Princes Golf Club and Royal Cinque Ports.

Wentworth, and in particular its famed West Course, has been flying the flag for English golf on the professional scene for years. It is the spiritual home of the World Matchplay Championship and the host of the European Tour’s flagship event, the BMW PGA Championship. Just north of London is the Kyle Phillips-designed course at The Grove, which hosted the American Express World Golf Championship in 2006, won by none other than Tiger Woods. Of course, no list of English championship venues would be complete without mentioning The Brabazon Course at the Belfry, which has hosted the Ryder Cup on an unprecedented four occasions.

Steeped in Ryder Cup history, The Belfry is a perfect resort to accommodate groups of golfers, particularly with the newly refurbished Sam’s Bar. If you’re heading to the south west, then the St Mellion International Resort is an absolute must. The Cornwall resort boasts two outstanding courses, a brilliant 19th hole and the Fairway Lodges, which are perfectly suited to large groups of golfers. Worsley Park (Manchester), East Sussex National and Hill Valley (Shropshire) are also worth consideration.

There are no shortage of luxury hotels and resorts in England. Escape to the immaculate 400-acre estate of Bovey Castle in Devon, or see why The Grove near Hertfordshire is a popular haunt among some of the world’s biggest celebrities. For a lavish golf break in the north, try Rudding Park – voted No. 1 Best UK Hotel in the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards for three of the past four years.
