England is where championship golf meets centuries of history. Six English courses have hosted The Open, and you can play the four most recent of them, Royal St George’s, Royal Liverpool, Royal Birkdale and Royal Lytham & St Annes, on a single England golf trip.
Our England golf packages are built around two regions: the Northwest’s Golf Coast of Open-rota links, and the London & South East, home to the heathland classics of Surrey and Berkshire and the Kent links near Sandwich. Every golf tour we arrange is fully custom, so you can focus on one region or combine both.
Premier Golf has been arranging golf vacations in England since 1988, and with an office in London our team knows the courses, the clubs and the visitor rules first-hand. We handle tee times, hotels, transfers and caddies, so you can focus on the golf.
Every trip is planned around you, from the courses and pace to where you stay and eat. Get in touch with our England golf specialists to start planning your custom England golf trip.
7 nights & 5 rounds from $6,700
For the finest golf in England, look no further than the Northwest Coastline. With the Open rota trio of ‘Royals’ Royal Birkdale, Royal Lytham & St Annes and Royal Liverpool all situated within a short drive.
Lesser-known Hillside and Formby complete the line-up of exceptional links in the region. Base yourself in Liverpool and this is one of the easiest golf trips to England to plan, with every course under an hour away.
7 nights & 6 rounds from $8,828
Southern England is known for its sunnier climate as well as golf courses. In the Surrey sand belt, west of London, sit Sunningdale, Swinley Forest, Walton Heath, St George’s Hill, and The Berkshire.
Further south, on the Kent coast is the iconic links trio of Prince’s, Royal Cinque Ports, and Open venue, Royal St George’s. It’s our most popular choice for England golf vacations that combine top-ranked heathland golf with time in London.
England has close to 2,000 golf courses, but for most US golfers the trip comes down to three areas, each with a cluster of world-ranked England golf courses a short drive apart.
Planning golf trips to England comes down to a few key decisions:
The Northwest’s Golf Coast has the highest concentration of Open-rota links, with three Open venues within an hour of Liverpool. London and the South East suits golfers who want heathland classics, Kent links and time in the capital. Many groups combine both on a longer England golf trip.
Most golfers do best with 7 nights, allowing 5 to 6 rounds without rushing. If you’re combining regions, allow 9 to 10 nights. The train between London and Liverpool takes around 2 hours 15 minutes.
May to September offers the best playing conditions and the longest days. June and July are the warmest months and the busiest on course. May and September offer excellent value and quieter tee sheets.
Cost depends on the region, courses, hotels and group size. Our England golf packages start from around $6,700 for a 7-night, 5-round Golf Coast trip, rising to $8,828 or more for London & South East, where courses like Sunningdale and Swinley Forest are in highest demand.
Every Premier Golf trip is custom-built, so the price reflects exactly what you want and nothing you don’t. Speak to our England specialists.
England’s most famous courses don’t work like public golf. Many top clubs, including the Open venues and the Surrey heathland classics, only accept visitors on set days and times, and most ask for a handicap certificate. Piecing together tee times across several clubs, with hotels, transfers and caddies around them, quickly gets complicated.
Premier Golf handles all of it. We’ve arranged England golf tours since 1988, and our London office works directly with the clubs to secure tee times that fit together into a sensible itinerary. We recommend booking 9 to 12 months ahead for summer travel. Contact our England golf specialists.

Since then, England has hosted some of the best golf tournaments, from the Open Championship to the Ryder Cup and numerous annual tour events.

There are around 2,000 golf courses in England, with some of these courses being centuries old, such as the Royal North Devon. England has more golf courses than the rest of the UK put together and there are some fantastic places to tee off in the South (known for being warmer and more temperate) and the Northwest coast (known for the “Royals” trio – the Royal Birkdale, Royal Lytham & St Annes, and the Royal Liverpool).
The best time for golf in England is May to September, when the weather is warmest and the days are longest. June and July are the warmest months and the busiest on course. May and September offer good conditions with fewer crowds, while winter is cold and wet, with many courses on restricted play.
Royal Lytham & St Annes is often considered the toughest, with 174 deep bunkers, narrow fairways, and unpredictable coastal winds making it a formidable challenge.
Green fees at England’s top courses vary widely, with the Open venues and leading heathland clubs among the most expensive. Our England golf packages, which include golf, hotels and transfers, start from around $6,700 for 7 nights and 5 rounds on England’s Golf Coast, and from $8,828 for 7 nights and 6 rounds in London and the South East.
You can book and fully customize your golf tour across England with Premier Golf, including visits to the popular regions and courses of the Northwest coast and the Southeast.
There are 34 Royal Golf Clubs in England, each granted the prestigious “Royal” status by the British monarchy.
The Northwest region of England, particularly the area known as England’s Golf Coast, is often referred to as the golf capital due to its high concentration of top-quality courses, including Royal Birkdale, Royal Liverpool, and Royal Lytham & St Annes.
Royal St George’s Golf Club in Sandwich, Kent, is among the most renowned, having hosted The Open Championship 15 times, more than any other course in England.
The biggest tournament played in England is The Open Championship. Six English courses have hosted The Open, with Royal St George’s, Royal Liverpool, Royal Birkdale, and Royal Lytham & St Annes the most recent.
We recommend planning 9 to 12 months ahead, especially for the Open venues and the Surrey heathland courses, where visitor tee times are limited and summer dates fill quickly.
