North Bristol Golf Tour

Looking for a golf tour in Bristol that combines great nightlife with the best golf the region has to offer? Look no further…

The North Bristol golf tour provides a great 3 days golf, whilst situating you close to the action for a night out in Bristol. All the courses are in close proximity to the modern Village Hotel which you will call home for the 2 nights you are in Bristol.  The out-of-town location means you and your group do not have to battle the infamous Bristol traffic or contend with clean air zone charges on your way to the courses, but puts you in a position to get in and out of the centre in the evening should you wish to. Located just 1 minute from the M5/M4 motorways, getting out to your courses couldn’t be easier.

The hotel has all you need for an enjoyable time off the course including leisure facilities, a sports bar and restaurant, Starbucks and ample parking.

The courses all offer something a little different but are all known for their excellent condition and warm welcome. The Kendleshire and The Players rank highly in Gloucestershire and have played host to EuroPro tour events. Whilst Henbury Golf Club is a welcoming members club with some of the best playing surfaces in the region and arguably the best back 9 layouts in the county.

Our North Bristol tour has been one of our most popular tours since we launched it in 2021, especially as all these courses listed have the capacity to accommodate groups over a weekend. The perfect mix of a well-renowned city night out and some top-quality golf at excellent courses. Bristol is also easily accessible from all areas of the country thanks to its position next to the M4 and M5 motorways.

Also nearby are courses such as The Bristol, Filton and Chipping Sodbury which make a great addition to this trip.

There are also some extras on offer for larger groups such as free parking and complimentary use of the leisure facilities at the Village Hotel, plus society discounts!. Contact us today for your quote.

Course overview

The Kendleshire, a relatively new golf course, is widely regarded as one of the best in the Bristol area and south west. After opening its doors in 1997, the club now is home to 27 holes of golf, excellent practice facilities, short course and a modern clubhouse, bar and restaurant. Hollows & Ruffet make up the original 18 hole layout, however, the newer Badminton layout is equally as impressive.

Playing all 27 during your visit is certainly recommended! The club prides itself on its modern approach to golf. You will receive a friendly welcome and certainly none of the stuffiness of golf courses in years gone by. Whilst the club has a large membership, visitors are very much welcomed and looked after during their stay. The club itself is very much set up to deal with small and large society groups alike. The clubhouse and terrace are perfectly set up overlooking the 18th, so you can watch golfers as finish their round.

On the course, The Kendleshire has built a reputation of an incredibly well-kept golf course which peaks in the summer months but is playable all year round. Modern drainage systems allow for fast running greens which are often some of the quickest in the region. The Kendleshire is based in north Bristol and is easily accessible from the M4, M5 or M32. It is therefore best placed as a stopover venue en route further south or on the way back north.

If you are basing yourself in the area it is best tied in with The Players Golf Club, which does have its own accommodation or The Wellington Hotel. Do note that the Hampton by Hiton at Bristol Airport is situated the other side of the city.

Situated on the outskirts of Bristol on the border of Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, this amazing venue has become home to many professional events and has been designed and maintained to the highest standard. The Players Club has staged 9 televised Europro events, 7 West Region PGA Championships and 3 English over 48s Championships, as well as regional finals for many top professional and amateur events.

Outside of the golf the venue has a fully stocked bar and both onsite and off site accommodation options.

  • How do GSW keep money safe?

    We are extremely proud of the service we provide and a large part of this is ensuring our client’s money is safe. Our practices comply with the 2018 package travel directive meaning that your money is safe with both ourselves and the venues your choose to visit.

    The money for your golf break is paid into a trust account run by an independent partner, so you have peace of mind that no matter what happens, your money is being looked after.

  • What happens if we can’t go on our planned trip?

    Deposits are non-refundable, but they are transferable to a new date or break. We aim to be as flexible as possible and will treat each situation on a case by case basis.

  • Can we make changes to our break?

    Managing a group can be a thankless task and changes to the group leading up to your break are an accepted element. We make changes as stress free as possible (just see our reviews for evidence of this!). Changes can be made up to 6 weeks prior to your break. Some changes are unavoidable so for legitimate reasons we will endeavour to make last minute changes after this period, but as we would have paid our venues at this point, this would be at the discretion of the venue(s) you are visiting.

  • Why book with a tour operator?

    Good question, could you not do this all yourself? The answer is yes you could. You are able to locate the ideal hotel with the accessibility you need to the clubs you plan to play. You could go back and forth with your target venues and line up the tee times.  You could also contact each venue individually to advise them of group number changes and requests during the build up to your trip.

    Alternatively you could;

    – Talk to us about the trip you are planning.

    – Receive quotes for perfectly crafted package meeting your ideal requirements.

    – Secure the booking with small deposits staged in a way to make your life easier as an organiser.

    – Have your funds fully insured and independently held by PTS, our client trust provider.

    – Have changes made to whole tours with just one call or email.

    – Receive exclusive extras such as free places.

    – Pay less with our packages than going direct to venues.

    Why can we do this?

    Quite simply we have spent years (since 2015) forging strong relationships with hotel, golf club and golf resort venues across the South West. We are the expert tour operator for the region and are know for our high quality and personal service to our clients (just see our Google and TrustPilot reviews).

  • Who uses Golf South West?

    The majority of our clients are UK based domestic travellers. We deal with groups of any size, from single travellers and couples, to large golf societies.

    We also are the favoured golf DMC for the South West of England and preferred regional partner of Golf Tourism England. We regularly work with tour operators from Europe, America and elsewhere to provide bespoke tour packages allowing overseas travellers to experience the beautiful West Country.

  • How are package prices displayed on our website?

    Prices on our our website are displayed in two ways. The first is on our Resort pages where pricing tables show the from prices for low, mid and high season golf stay and play package rates at golf resort venues.

    The second is on our example tour package pages. There are often 4 prices shown here, two for low season and two for high season. The struck through price typically shows the highest price the tour can be and is often active over weekends in that season. The offer price is typically a mid week price.

    Every tour quote we offer is bespoke and will vary based on a number of factors including the date, availability, group size, room type, time of day for the tee time, etc… Our package pricing is a guide to the cost of the package and is not a firm price. Please enquire for an exact cost.

    We aim to provide as accurate a price as possible and therefore try to avoid using shoulder/mid season pricing or twilight green fee rates when displaying rates. You may find an intermediate price for breaks in months of April & October at certain venues.

  • Why are golf resort prices the same as elsewhere?

    Put simply, all tour operators work from the same contracted rate card when it comes to stay and play golf resort packages. When it comes to golf tours, that is a different matter, but golf resorts are a level playing field.

    If you find a vastly different price, it’s likely you’ve been misquoted and usually this does come back to bite.

    The question this poses is why book a stay and play golf break with Golf South West if you can book direct or with one of the large operators and receive the same price?

    Benjamin Franklin once said “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after
    the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”

    We have a small team so booking through us means you receive a personal service. You are more than just a number to us, we are a tour operator where you will likely get to deal with the same contact throughout the process, who will get to know you and your group and respond efficiently to your queries.

    We know our venues and the people who work there. This ensures a smooth process from initial enquiry to the end of your stay.

    Financially you have an extra layer of protection as your money is securely stored in an independent trust account and is fully insured when it is released to the venue(s) you are visiting.

    We are fortunate to have some exclusive “extras” with selected venues across the South West. We offer 1 in 16 free on every trip AND run an exclusive voucher scheme for our stay and play client bookings.

    We often feel we add further value to our clients when it comes to our bespoke golf tour packages, but you can rest assured that when making a stay and play golf resort booking, Golf South West will offer you an extremely high level of service, financial protection and may even offer you a saving or an exclusive extra!
