Great golfing getaways

After Sergio Garcia’s thrilling Masters victory golfers across the nation will be hitting courses around the country inspired by the scenes at Augusta.

However, if the unpredictable British weather is putting you off your swing, you’ll be glad to know that HolidayGems offers a number of fantastic holiday destinations where you can find one or more sun-soaked courses nearby.

Here are just a few of the resorts and hotels where you can enjoy a great golfing getaway:

Suite Hotel Jardin Dorado, Maspalomas, Gran Canaria

The Suite Hotel Jardin Dorado’s prime location, right beside the greens and fairways of Maspalomas Golf Course, means you won’t have to trek far to enjoy a round in the sun. It also means you won’t have far to go to get back to cool off in one of the hotel's swimming pools, or relax in the sauna or Jacuzzi.

Hotel Tabaiba, Costa Teguise, Lanzarote

Another great pick for a golfing break is the Hotel Tabaiba. Located approximately 3km away from Costa Teguise Golf Course, the hotel also boasts 2 swimming pools, 2 children’s pools and a playground to ensure your family don’t miss you too much while you’re teeing off.
