Our take

Ian Woosnam's clifftop course above the Black Sea makes its impression with the setting, and it plays far friendlier than the drop off the edge suggests.

Frequently asked questions

Golf holidays in Bulgaria — answers to the questions our golfers ask most.

It is easy to get around in Bulgaria?

We recommend arranging private transfers for your golf course visits, which we include in all Bulgaria packages. This is the most convenient option and avoids any logistical uncertainty. Taxis are widely available and very affordable by UK standards. If you prefer independence, hire cars are available at Varna and Sofia airports. Most of Bulgaria's top golf courses — Thracian Cliffs, BlackSeaRama and Cape Kaliakra — are within 20–30 minutes of each other on the Black Sea coast, making logistics simple.

Is Bulgaria good for groups?

Bulgaria offers outstanding value for golf groups and societies. Green fees at world-class courses like Thracian Cliffs are significantly lower than comparable venues in Western Europe. All-inclusive hotel options keep the group together with costs predictable and no bill-splitting. Three excellent courses in close proximity mean you can play a different course each day without long drives. The uncrowded nature of Bulgarian golf also means better availability than busier destinations. Contact us for competitive group rates and tailored society packages.

Where should I play golf in Bulgaria?

Bulgaria's best golf is concentrated on the Black Sea coast near Kavarna, where three world-class courses sit within 20 minutes of each other: Thracian Cliffs, Cape Kaliakra and BlackSeaRama. Thracian Cliffs consistently ranks among Europe's top courses — a dramatic clifftop links with Black Sea views that would look at home in Scotland. We recommend playing all three over a 5-7 night stay. Sofia also has excellent parkland golf if you prefer a city break combination.

Are flights included?

Our golf holidays are arranged ground-only — hotel, golf and transfers. You can add flights through us, and those flights are ATOL protected as part of your booking.

How do golf holidays with Golf Planet Holidays work?

Every trip is hand-built. Tell us your group, dates and the destinations you fancy, and we build a personal itinerary — hotel, golf and transfers — around them. There are no fixed packages to squeeze into; we shape the whole break to suit how your group likes to play.

How much does a golf holiday cost?

It depends on the destination, hotel, dates and how many rounds you want, so every quote is built individually. Many breaks start in the mid-hundreds per person; winter-sun and long-haul trips cost more. Get a free, no-obligation quote and we'll confirm your figure.
