Golf travel advice from an expert
We get some travel advice from one of Golfbreaks.com’s top customers.
Earlier this year we were lucky enough to be invited to a Golfbreaks.com event at Celtic Manor. While we were there we took the opportunity to speak to Calum Meiklejohn who is a top booker with Golfbreaks.com
He had a lot to tell us about what makes a great golf break. Here are his stats:
Handicap: 9
Bookings made with golfbreaks.com: 15
Booking with golfbreaks.com since: 2008
Calum is a seasoned golf traveller with some top tips and invaluable travel advice.
- Plan ahead – go online and do your homework
- Are you going to take your clubs or hire them?
- Do some research into insurance and make sure you purchase it ahead of your trip.
- Suncream – If you’re heading for the sun, be prepared.
So what were Calum’s top tips for a successful suitcase?
- Good pharmaceuticals, especially sun cream
- The right clothes for the trip, including waterproofs (especially for a Scotland trip)
