A golf holiday for couples in Scotland works when both of you get a proper day, not when one of you tags along. The golfer walks off the eighteenth at Cabot Highlands as the light goes off the Moray Firth. The other has had a spa afternoon, a beach walk, a long lunch with a view. Then you compare notes over dinner. That is the whole idea, and we have been hand-building trips like it since 1981.
Tell us which of you plays, and how often, and we put the rest together: the hotel, the tee times, the spa booking, the table by the window. It need not start at grand-hotel money either. The Lodge at Craigielaw in East Lothian, from
Golf for one, indulgence for the other — both of you happy
The trick is to give each of you a brilliant day rather than a watered-down one. While the golfer plays, the partner should have the best of Scotland at the door. A Highland spa. A windswept beach walk, a whisky tasting, or simply a slow afternoon by the fire with a book.
If only one of you plays, The Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, from
Two itineraries, one trip. You just turn up.
The courses your golfer will remember
Scotland is the home of the game, and the line-up is the reason serious golfers keep coming back. In the Highlands, Cabot Highlands brings a modern, dramatic links to the Moray Firth, while Nairn Golf Club is the traditional test that has hosted the game’s greats. The Kingsmills Hotel in Inverness, from
Down in Perthshire and Angus the choices hold up. Blairgowrie’s Rosemount course winds through pine and heather, Murrayshall in Perth pairs parkland golf with country-house calm, and Downfield in Dundee rounds out a varied few days from Gleneagles or Dunkeld House. For a first trip together, though, it is hard to argue with St Andrews itself. From
Where our specialists would stay in Scotland
Hand-built, protected, and handled — so you can just enjoy each other
Every couples’ break we arrange is built from scratch around your dates rather than pulled off a shelf. You make one enquiry. We come back with a precise, GBP-priced, ground-only plan covering the hotel, the golf, the tee times and a partner itinerary, with own-room and twin options where you want them.
Because we have done this since 1981, the trip is protected the way it should be: PTS holds every payment in trust from the day you book until you are home again, and if you ask us to add flights, those are ATOL protected too. Useful if you are coming from further afield and want everything under one booking.
Prefer the social side of travelling with others? We also run hosted and escorted group tours through Scotland, where couples join a small, like-minded group with a host smoothing every tee time and transfer. Either way the shape of the trip is the same. Golf for the golfer, a proper holiday for the partner, and evenings you will talk about long after you are home.

Frequently asked questions
We're travelling from the US — can you arrange flights and handle everything in one booking?
Yes. While our packages are priced ground-only in GBP from
What if only one of us plays golf?
That’s the heart of what we do. We build a full golf itinerary for the player — courses like Cabot Highlands, Nairn or Blairgowrie — alongside a separate itinerary of spa, coast, walking or wine for the partner, often at the same hotel such as Gleneagles or Dunkeld House. You spend the days doing what each of you loves and the evenings together.
Is my money safe when I book?
Yes. Golf Planet Holidays is ATOL Protected, and your money is held in trust with PTS until you have travelled. You’re billed in GBP, with a clear hand-built quote before you commit — nothing hidden, nothing at risk.
Can we travel with other couples or join a group?
Absolutely. As well as private hand-built breaks, we run hosted and escorted group tours through Scotland where you join a small group of like-minded golfers and partners, with a host handling tee times and transfers. It’s a sociable, fuss-free way to experience courses like Murrayshall and Downfield while still enjoying your own time as a couple.
Come and play with us
Wherever you're travelling from, you're welcome on a Golf Planet hosted tour — a small group, a host with you from the first tee to the last, and every round, transfer and dinner taken care of. You just bring the clubs.
