Type “singles golf holidays” into Google and most of what comes back is either a dating angle or a coach tour. Neither is what the golfers who ring us actually want. What they want is simple. They want to get away and play good courses without needing three friends to agree on a date first, without sharing a room with a stranger, and without the week turning into an organised social club.
So here is the straight version of what we do. Golf Planet Holidays has been hand building golf breaks since 1981. We do not form groups and we do not run escorted singles weeks. We build the trip around you alone: a room to yourself every night, green fees and every transfer included in the price, and tee times booked before you leave home. The playing company sorts itself out at the course.
What a singles golf holiday with us actually looks like
Give us your dates, a budget and the courses you fancy. One specialist, a real person who has played or booked these venues for years, comes back with a plan and a single price: hotel, your own room, green fees, transfers and tee times, all in. No supplement negotiation with a call centre. No waiting for a group to fill.

Where single golfers over 50 actually go
In the UK, England is the easy first trip, and solo golf breaks in England start from
Scotland is the pilgrimage: Fairmont St Andrews, Troon and the East Lothian coast, with everything booked before you go. For guaranteed sun, the Costa del Sol gives you more courses in a short stretch than anywhere else we sell, from
Where our specialists would stay in England
The over-50s part, honestly
A good share of the solo golfers on our books have passed 50. Some are recently retired with time on their hands at last. Some have lost a regular fourball to age or geography. Some have a partner who does not play; if that partner is coming anyway, Hampshire’s Old Thorns Hotel & Resort earns its keep at
One honest admission. If what you really want is a ready-made social group for the whole week, dinners included, we are the wrong company, and a hosted tour operator will suit you better. Where we win is everything else: better courses, your own room, your own pace, and company on the tee whenever you want it.
Booked properly, protected properly
Every pound you pay sits in a PTS trust account until you have travelled, and if we book flights for you, ATOL protection applies on top. You deal with the same specialist from first email to your return home. Tell us the courses on your list and how sociable you want the week to be; the rest gets built around you.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a single supplement on your golf holidays?
Your own room comes as standard and every trip is priced individually for one traveller, with green fees and all transfers included. Tell us your dates and we will give you the exact figure in GBP with no obligation.
Am I too old for a solo golf trip?
No. Golf is the rare sport where a 70-year-old and a 30-year-old share a tee quite happily, and clubs pair single golfers of every age on the day. If walking a course matters to you, we will steer you towards flatter layouts or include a buggy.
Which destination is best for a first singles golf holiday?
England, honestly. A short drive, no flight to think about, and resorts like Carden Park and Forest Pines where everything is on one site, from
Is my money protected if I book alone?
Yes. Your payment is held in trust with PTS until you have travelled, and flight-inclusive trips are ATOL protected. Solo travellers get exactly the same protection as a group of twelve.
