| Golf is a sport that has grown in
popularity and is now played, both professionally and recreationally, in virtually every
country in the world. Golf is a game that has evolved from its crude origins in the 15th
century to being a highly tactical sport enjoyed by people of every age, sex and race and
in some countries is even regarded as a national pastime. With hundreds of golf courses to
be found across the globe, golfing holidays in Europe, America and South Africa have
become popular with enthusiasts of the game eager to experience playing a round in an
entirely different location to their usual local golf course. Holiday home accommodation
has also increased in availability near to golf courses, so lovers of the sport can now
book a self catering apartment a walk away from the first hole, so no precious time is
lost travelling to and from their nearest club! Golfing holidays are usually considered
only by those really serious about their game, but many holiday homes situated near to
golf courses can also provide plenty of other facilities and activities that would appeal
to everyone, so the whole family can enjoy a golfing holiday even if it's only dad and
grandad who enjoy golf! Many self catering apartments, villas and farmhouses for holiday
rental are in regions where there are abundant opportunities for sightseeing, shopping and
sunbathing on the beach as well as golfing and other outdoor activities, so a golfing
holiday in Spain, for instance, can appeal equally to someone with more relaxing ideas in
mind.
Europe is stuffed full of golf courses in idyllic locations with a wide variety of
clubs suited to all playing levels and abilities. From 9 holes to championship courses,
whatever your golfing prowess may be, the perfect course is waiting to be discovered. Rent
a holiday villa or apartment in Spain, The Balearics, The Canaries or Portugal and you can
indulge in your favourite pastime in guaranteed sunshine, then spend time relaxing on a
sandy beach. A golfing holiday in France or Italy can also give you ample opportunity to
discover other aspects of a vacation in these countries from the comfort of a luxurious
villa or farmhouse with its own private pool. Or maybe a holiday rental villa in South
Africa near to a golf course would sound attractive as a vacation destination, with
endless possibilities for the whole family, and a private pool to cool off in after a hard
day on the fairways. Equally, a golfing holiday in USA would let you experience not only
typical American vibrancy and hospitality, but a top quality vacation condo near enough to
a golf course to overdose on your favourite game in true American style. Then there's
Scotland; some may say it's the real home of golf, and with many different types of
courses to try in fantastic scenic landscapes, you might never play a round of golf as
memorable as one on a golfing holiday in Scotland.
