Spring Greens: The Best Time for a Golf Vacation

Spring is the best time of year for a golf break. The months between March and May usually hit that sweet spot: courses across the UK, Atlantic Islands and Continental Europe are looking their best but not over played like peak summer weeks; you can still take advantage of some fantastic value mid-week stays away.

Fair condition: Among one of the largest advantages is the return of warmer temperatures and longer days which means that greens and fairways rebound from their winter wear. Earlier in the year there are fewer golfers on the courses and they can give them a rest from carts to eliminate as much wear and tear as possible. Having no carts will mean you get cleaner lies over firmer ground with balls rolling out more than meandering or trundling along.

Comfortable golf in spring is possible. Chances are good there will be less July and August steam to trudge through, so you can finish 18 holes without feeling cooked. Take a bunch of layers and light waterproofs – job done for UK fluctuating conditions.

Another win: availability. Most groups prefer warm, summer weekends and thus spring is a time of better tee times, more space for larger parties and an overall quieter clubhouse environment. This time of year is great for couples, or mixed groups because local attractions are open and busy with warm weather walks; people have got their al fresco dining hats on again!

Spring breaks are brilliant for a refresh. So a few rounds, two tracks and evening food/relaxing drinks feels way different after such a long winter.

For the optimum golfing experience, book in good time for April and May then tee off late morning when it has warmed up a bit – plus enquire about dinner or spa access packages to make this feel more like an actual break.
