Testimonials

Here are some recent testimonials relating to groups and couples who have booked golf breaks through www.greatgolfholidays.com

"Thanks for sorting out the weekend. We all had a great time and everyone was especially impressed with the hotel - good rooms, good service and good food. The golf was very good and we had a very warm welcome at each golf course." Mark

"We had very good time thanks. Weather on the Thursday (when we played Saunton) was awful but Friday and Saturday much better. Loved Saunton and Royal North Devon was also very nice but wouldn't bother going back to Ilfracombe. Hotel was very good I thought - big room and newly refurbished bathrooms plus close to town centre. All in all worked really well. Thanks for your help. Will certainly use you next time we do something similar." Ian

"A great trip apart from the rain at Ferndown! Parkstone voted the best. Many, many thanks for your organisation." Bob

"Thanks, everything went very smoothly, courses and hotel were great and the sun shone for 3 days." Jon

"Everything was great. We had a fabulous time apart from the windy conditions on the golf course, but we can't control the weather!! The hotel was very good, food and staff were excellent. I will pass your details onto the next person to organise the trip. Thank you very much for all your help." Denise

"We all enjoyed our golfing break, the courses and hotel were very good and everyone wants to return next year. Thank you for your help in putting the break together." Tony

"The total package was a complete success, even the weather was good! Thanks for your help and we are already looking forward to next year." Roger

"We had excellent weather and everything went like clockwork. Our golfing ability could have been better, but everyone enjoyed themselves. Thanks for making it so easy. and we hope to repeat next year." Colin

"The trip was a great success, everyone enjoyed it and the courses were amazing. The hotel was very good, with good food and clean rooms. We even got lucky with the one thing we can't plan for - the weather!! Very enjoyable and thanks for all your assistance." Justin

"Another enjoyable week, thanks for arranging everything." Frank

"Many thanks for arranging yet another fantastic weekend. The hotel was out of this world and the three courses were challenging to the whole group - both high and low handicappers. I look forward to our continued relationship." Malcolm

"We had a great few days away. The weather was superb, I aquired a lot of brownie points from my friends for being able to provide that! Our favourite course was Saunton, followed by North Devon and Ilfracombe. The course on the way home was fine but did not have the drama but served the requirement. I will certainly remember your company for future reference." Eileen

"I would like to say what a great weekend we had. The hotel was good and the courses excellent. We had really good weather, which of course makes it better. Southerndown was our favourite course, influenced largely by the perfect weather conditions in which we played it - I bet it can be grim up there in the wind and rain! Many thanks." Mike

"We had a lovely time - thank you. We felt that the hotel offered great value for money and really enjoyed Brokenhurst and Stoneham - both very challenging especially if you're not playing well!! We were a bit disappointed with Paultons though. We had expected it to be busy as it was a Saturday morning but we felt that they had overbooked the course. On some of the par 3s there were often 3 or even 4 groups waiting to play. It was nice to play a flat course after Stoneham and, as the sun was shining, we did play the full 18 but some of the group were tempted to stop after 9." Suzy

"The golf weekend was a great success, thank you for all your help and support." Steve

"The hotel was excellent value for 4 star hotel... Favourite courses played were Machynys and Southerndown - excellent courses... All in all a very good weeks golf." Patrick

"Everything was excellent, thank you." David

"Thank you for organising the booking for our weekend in Norfolk. We had an enjoyable time and everything went according to plan." Gail

"Just a quick email to thank you for your help with our Wales golf trip - it went very well despite the weather with Rolls of Monmouth and The Welsh National being our favourite courses." Ken

"Thank you for organising our golf trip, the hotel was great and the courses we played were excellent!" Mark

"We had a fantastic trip and thank you very much for organising it. We got caught with some windy weather and the top holes of Burntisland as well as Leven Links were playing very tough. But is was great fun and being in St Andrews 2 weeks before the big tournament was great as all the stands were up but we were also allowed to walk the course since it was closed for the tournament." Ben

"Thanks from all our party for your arrangement of our golf holiday in North Devon. The Royal and Fortesque Hotel in Barnstaple was excellent, the Breakfast and Dinner was of the highest order, and the staff were very friendly and helpfull. The Golf courses were excellent especially the East and West Saunton contrasted on the last day by a very fine Parkland course at Oake Manor." Alan

"We had a great weekend (have to say helped by the weather a bit!) - everything was as hoped (hotel and golf recommendations were all good), and the organisation was faultless! So many thanks indeed, you may well get contacted by one or two of our group for other trips at some point. In any event I tend to sort out an annual trip like this so will be back in touch next year." Mark

"Thanks - everything went well. Weather was of course glorious. Hotel was very good as were the courses including Paultons where the course was better than expected." Tim

"Overall the organisation was excellent; we all had a great time and are looking forward to our the trip next year. As organiser I am always apprehensive using a new company for our golf break; I had no issues with any part of the trip. Everybody was expecting us which makes everything so much easier. Thanks for all your help and we definitely will be contacting you next year." Jeff

"The golf trip was great and thank you for organising it. Everything went very smoothly and we all had a great time. I'll recommend you to the guy next year who is organising things." Greg

"The trip was a great success, the courses were all in very good condition. I will be in touch regarding future trips." Neil

"Many thanks for your help for our golf break. In short it went very well indeed and I received many plaudits!! If asked by the new president, I will certainly provide your company a very good write." Malcolm

"We had a great weekend and everything went very smoothly...including the weather! The courses were all of a good standard and were welcoming...Thank you very much for all your help - much appreciated and I will not hesitate to recommend you to others in the future." Mark

"We had an excellent trip - courses and hotel were both great and we even got good weather. Many thanks for organising such a good trip for us" Ken

"Thanks for organising a great golf trip with everything going to schedule. The Hotel was excellent and the food and the service outstanding. All the golf courses were good except Meyrick Park which was very busy and taking 5 hours to do the round. We thought the course was bit over used with a lot of bare lies and a bit scruffy. We would not recommend going there. We are looking to go to that area again next year and trying out other courses, so I will contact you again in the future. Thanks again for your help." Tony

"Thanks for arranging an excellent and hassle free holiday for us. Everything went well and there were no problems." Frank

"We had a great time - thankfully the weather turned out to be fantastic and both accommodation and golf courses were great. Many thanks for making this a simple matter of a couple of emails to arrange a great golfing break." Colin

"I would like to thank you for arranging our trip, it was a real success. The four courses were excellent and the accommodation was first class - we had a great 4 days." Steve

"Just to let you know everything went well with the York trip and we really enjoyed the courses." Brian

"Thank you for arranging our golfing break. Everything went very smoothly and we had a very good time. Thank you very much." William

"Just a quick line to say thanks for another good trip (obviously helped by the weather), courses were very friendly and in good condition and hotel was fine. I am sure we will be back in touch for another trip next year." Bryan

"The group had a great time. The golf courses were as enjoyable as we expected and offered some really challenging but rewarding golf. The Church Course at St. Enodocs in particular was superb and up there with the best any of our group had played. Hotel was basic but clean, friendly and well located. Thanks again for helping arrange. I would certainly recommend you to others." Derren

"We would like to thank you for arranging our Golf trip. We all had a great time the weather was sunny Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday being a little drizzly to start but OK, so we were very lucky. The Dragon Hotel was very good, clean and the rooms were of a high standard, reception staff were very polite and informative. All of the courses were well maintained, The Gower being our favourite. Thanks once again for a enjoyable 3 days." John

"We had a great time - the views from the Isle of Purbeck were spectacular and the lodge at the Dorset Golf Club was super and everyone agreed it was great value for money. Thanks for all your help." Suzy

"Thanks very much for organising our trip to The Algarve, everything went well and we had a great holiday." Arthur

"We had a great time in Scotland over the weekend, and the organisation was flawless. Thank you." Steve

"We have just returned from our visit to Woodbridge, Thorpeness and Ipswich and wish to thank you for what was a wonderful trip, helped of course by glorious weather. The gorse was at its best but somewhat prickly when linked to the occasional errant golf ball. Why travel to France or Belgium when you can enjoy courses like these three? The hotel looked after us well and everything worked like clockwork. Thanks again for arranging everything." Colin

"Just to let you know it all went really well, the Hotel was adequate and very friendly, the courses were all good and we were made to feel very welcome by all. The weather was better than expected also. I would recommend the Mumbles golf break to friends and will be looking to book again through your Company for future breaks." Craig

"We had a great time. Really nice hotel, weather was superb every day, golf great (no queuing at all, very very quiet). Will be in touch re next year." Greg

"We all had a great time and everything was spot on. All my fellow golfers thought the courses were great and in fact they all said that this has been the BEST golf holiday so far. So good in fact we are looking for prices for next year if you have anything ready. Would also like to say that the staff from the Hotel were super and also the guys that drove the mini buses could not have been more pleasant. Once again, thanks for a great week." John

"General consensus was....... Fabulous. Good hotel, great golf, faultless organisation and the crack was tremendous. Vale de Lobo was a disappointment because they had allowed too many people on the course and they had us play the front nine of both courses so we could get round in daylight. This meant we missed the best holes on both courses. Nevertheless everybody wants me to book again as soon as possible!" Terry

"The golf tour certainly came up to expectations, and the weather was the icing on the cake. The hotel was unexceptional-looking from the outside but the rooms were comfortable and had great views. What really made it though was first the great location, right on Fistral Beach, and second the very friendly and helpful staff. We would single out Kim on the front desk and Alex in the restaurant for special praise, and do feed that back to hotel management if you wish. The courses were all great, and again friendly and welcoming. St Enodoc was voted the favourite with Trevose a close second. Overall very successful, and I shall certainly come back to you again as and when the need arises. If you had promised me 4 games in shorts in the middle of October and a lovely session of surfing thrown in you probably could have pushed the price up, but I might not have believed you could deliver!" Richard

"We had really great golf, in spite of the weather on the Tuesday and thought Purbeck was wonderful. The hotel wasn't as good as the golf. We hadn't realized that even "dinner" was a self service buffet. However my husband thought waiters can be annoying!." Jean

"Just to say thank you for arranging our golf trip. The organisation there was superb, hotel excellent and the golf was so so, which was nothing to do with the courses which were very good. Hope to be able to use you again should we decide to "tour" abroad again." Ken

"Everything ran smoothly, the event was a great success and enjoyed by all, however we could not have had worse weather on the Saturday at Nefyn. It was too windy to use brollies and was raining for most of the round, out of everybody's control I know, but I had been looking forward to playing that course all year and am gutted we couldn't enjoy that day. The hotel was great and the other 2 courses fantastic, at Conwy we had glorious sunshine all day, a good final day so ignoring the dire weather on the Saturday it was a great weekend, thanks for organising this for us. I have no problems recommending you in the future." Tony

"Myself and the group had a great time in The Algarve. The hotel was fantastic and despite all the rain the golf was even better. The lads have already said about wanting to book up again. Thanks for all your help & will speak again about next summer." Danny

"Thanks for setting this up. Hotel good....but they cocked up on the bookings and we ended up with one less room (using a suite to fit all in). Not a problem as they credited us with money which we then charged against. Broadstone - Good course. Barton On Sea - Excellent. Brockenhurst - Tough but good course." Wes

"We had an excellent trip to Hardelot - the hotel was fine and very nice - altho' there were a large number of Basildon taxi drivers staying there! The golf was excellent, too, with friendly staff at both courses. Only slight gripe was that on Les Dunes it was impossible to pre-book trolleys, which might be worth bearing in mind. Best wishes and thanks again for all your help." Jonathan

"Thanks for organising a great weekend for us. Every single person in our party had a very enjoyable weekend; the hotel was comfortable, food was very good and plentiful and the three golf courses were exceptional.....even despite the storm on Friday which meant having to cut short the first round. All the staff we met at the courses were extremely helpful and friendly, which all helped to make it such a good trip. We have our AGM in November and judging by the reaction of the members I am sure we will be in touch shortly after that to make another booking with you." Dave

"Thanks very much, we all had a fantastic time. Quinta Do Lago and The Old Course were absolutely fantastic. The Millenuim was Ok, although nothing special, and something I fully realised when we booked. Vale do Lobo was very nice, but we were very much put off by the incredibly high level of work that is going on. We definitely wouldn't have played that course if we'd known what it was like, bearing in mind the vast number of courses we could have played. Also I would suggest that you make it clear to others with regards to the level of work there going on at the moment. Having said all of that, I would absolutely use your service again. You were a fantastic help, and were very understanding surrounding me asking the same question 10 times. Thank you very much for sorting everything out. Everyone left saying that they were looking forward to next year!" Mark

"We had a great weekend - all went swimmingly well, thanks for organising it all - especially the lovely weather!" John

"A good time was had by all. Vale do lobo Ocean course was one I will remember for a long time. I will be handing over the organisation of next years event to another friend, but will pass on your contact details. I hope we can put more trips your way. Thanks again for your help." Mark

"Many thanks for all your help last week, it was very much appreciated, especially as the weather the previous weekend had been so atrocious, I was wondering if we would have managed any golf at all as I travelled to the UK. Some courses were very wet underfoot, with the Ross on Wye course probably the driest!! Thanks again for all your help and understanding during the year." Clive
