Taking Children on a Golfing Holiday

Posted on September 27, 2019 at 11:29 pm

Many different types of holiday will be suitable for children, but not all will be enjoyable for them. You might think on initial consideration that a golfing holiday might not be the best idea for a child, but actually, it could turn out to be something they really enjoy. It will be a new life experience and will give them the chance to focus on life skill that could serve them well in life.

If you choose to take your children on a golfing holiday, it’s probably best to stay in a golf village or a similar type of accommodation that’s close to your golfing destinations but that will have plenty of options to entertain your family as well. There are golf villages throughout the Algarve region of Portugal, and in other similar destinations across Europe, that would be happy to have children. They will have swimming pools and various facilities to help families have great holiday.

What is it Like to Stay in a Golf Village?

Posted on June 27, 2019 at 10:39 pm

Staying in a golf village in the beautiful Algarve region is something that is a dream for many. You will have the chance to improve your game, play various rounds of golf – and what’s more, you family will have a great time too. Staying in a golf village is a good decision for young families who want to take their children holiday abroad, but want good weather and a place to relax.

Here is the lowdown on golf villages and their benefits:

  • They’re great for everyone. You don’t need to have a love for golf. You can learn the sport from scratch, or you can take people along who aren’t golf enthusiasts and they can enjoy some time in the sun.
  • They’re beautiful. Imagine a gorgeous apartment overlooking a golf course.
  • They’re welcoming. Enjoy local food and hospitality, with plenty of options in the golf village and on your doorstep.

Ngorongoro Crater

Posted on October 31, 2014 at 11:20 am

The Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania is actually a UNESCO World Heritage Site! These types of sites are deemed to be of physical significance (or special cultural significance) by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation.
There are just 981 World Heritage Sites across the world (there are 28 in the UK alone) and this is one that you can visit where you’ll also get the opportunity to see a large collection of animal species including the “Big five” with a large population of Lions.
This is the largest unbroken, un-flooded volcanic caldera in the world. It was formed over three million years ago when a giant volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself. It is about 19kms wide and about six-hundred meters deep with a total area of 260 square kilometres which now acts as a natural enclosure for wildlife. It has been labelled as a conservation area, which protects numerous animal species.

Northern France – easy access

Posted on October 29, 2014 at 11:19 am

From the UK, Northern France is an easy trip either over or under the channel. Costs can vary, but you can get it very cheaply!
Northern France is a perfect location for those who have an interest in history and the world wars. With locations to visit such as Dunkerque, Cassel, St-Omer, La Coupole and Montreuil-sur-Mer you will be able to experience locations loaded with charm and interest. You’ll also be able to visit several war memorials and war museums which are scattered around the area – definitely worth a visit. For a location which in itself is rather interesting, we suggest to take a trip to Le Mont Saint Michel which is medieval town in Normandy. It welcomes over three million people every year and the ancient Burgher’s Guardroom is now welcomes through tourists and pilgrims who visit this town throughout the year as it is now the Tourist office.
