If you love the game and want to play it properly, good courses, the right hotel, no logistics to wrestle with, a solo golf holiday in England gives you the freedom to go when you want and play the week at your own pace once you arrive. We sort the tee times and the transfers so each round is simply there to enjoy. If you’d like company on the course, most clubs are happy to pair a single golfer with others on the day; if you’d rather the quiet, a calmer morning can mean a round to yourself, which is the course’s call on the day rather than something we arrange.
Golf Planet Holidays has been arranging hand-built golf breaks since 1981. We build your trip around you, your handicap, your pace, the courses on your wish list, from
Solo golf breaks to the UK: play at your own pace, fully arranged
The thing that stops a lot of single golfers booking is the same thing: who will I play with, and will it be a hassle? We take the hassle out of it before you leave home. We sort your tee times, transfers and running order, so each round is there waiting and you simply turn up and play.
On the course itself, most English clubs are happy to pair a single golfer with others on the day if you’d like a fourball and a bit of friendly competition, while a quieter morning can mean a round to yourself. That part is the course’s decision on the day rather than something we arrange, but singles are common and the welcome is relaxed. What we guarantee is that everything off the course is handled, so the golf is the only thing on your mind.
Singles golf holidays in the UK, including the over-50s
A lot of the searches that bring golfers here say “singles golf holidays”, and it is worth being straight about what we do and do not offer. We do not run hosted singles groups or match you with strangers for the week. What we arrange is better for most people: a break built entirely around you, with your own room as standard, green fees included and every tee time booked before you leave home.
The company side takes care of itself. English clubs are used to single golfers, and most will pair you with members or other visitors on the day, so you get fresh playing partners each round and the clubhouse afterwards if you want it. Plenty of the solo golfers we look after are over 50 and simply want the game played properly without waiting for friends to commit. If that is you, tell us the courses on your list and we will do the rest.
Where our specialists would stay in England
Where you'll stay — and where you'll play
England gives you genuine variety from a single base. Carden Park Hotel in Cheshire is a 1,000-acre estate resort with two courses on the doorstep — an easy, relaxed home for a solo break and a natural launch pad for the golf of the North West. Forest Pines Spa & Golf Resort in Lincolnshire offers 27 holes and a spa to unwind in after your round, while Dale Hill Hotel & Golf Club in East Sussex puts two parkland courses and the rolling High Weald right outside your room for golfers based in the South East.
For the serious links pilgrim, we can build a tour around some of the finest golf in the country. Hoylake (Royal Liverpool), an Open Championship venue, anchors a Wirral and Lancashire itinerary that takes in Heswall Golf Club, Caldy Golf Club, Wallasey Golf Club and West Lancashire Golf Club — a run of championship and classic links you would struggle to arrange yourself, all stitched into one seamless trip.
Built around you, from £175 (≈ €205) (≈ $235) (≈ CA$325) (≈ AU$335) (≈ NZ$395) (≈ CHF 185) (≈ kr 2,285) (≈ kr 2,265) (≈ kr 1,535)
Nothing here is off the shelf. Tell us your dates, your budget and the courses you most want to tick off, and we shape the hotel, the rounds and the tee times around a solo golfer. Want a relaxed two-night resort stay at Carden Park or Forest Pines? Done. Want a four-day links odyssey from Hoylake through the Wirral courses? We’ll plan every tee time and transfer. Prices start from
For golfers travelling from the US, an England golf trip pairs beautifully with the rest of your visit — you handle the transatlantic flight and we take care of everything once you land, from the hotel and the green fees to your tee times.

Frequently asked questions
Will I have people to play with if I travel alone?
You can. Most English courses are happy to pair a single golfer with others on the day if you’d like playing partners, while a quieter morning can mean a round to yourself. That’s the course’s decision on the day rather than something we arrange. What we handle is everything off the course, the hotel, the tee times, the transfers and the running order, so the golf is all you need to think about.
How much does a solo golf holiday in England cost?
Solo golf breaks start from
Which courses can I play?
Plenty. You can base yourself at Carden Park (Cheshire), Dale Hill (East Sussex) or Forest Pines (Lincolnshire), and we can build a links tour taking in Hoylake (Royal Liverpool), Heswall, Caldy, Wallasey and West Lancashire. Tell us your wish list and we’ll arrange the tee times.
Is my money protected, and can I book from the US?
Every holiday is ATOL Protected and your money is held in trust with PTS until you have travelled, so your funds are safeguarded throughout. US golfers are very welcome — you arrange your transatlantic flight and we take care of everything on the ground, from hotels and green fees to your tee times. We’re happy to advise on the best regional airports for your chosen courses.
Do you run singles golf holidays where I join a group?
No, and we would rather be straight about it. We do not form groups or host escorted singles weeks. Every break is arranged for you alone, with your own room, and the social side happens at the course: most English clubs will pair a single golfer with others on the day if you would like company. You get the freedom of travelling solo without turning the week into a package tour.
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.
