Golf Great Britain and Ireland: A Traveler's Guide to More

Excellent book for the traveler to visit the British Isles. Has helped me immeasurably in selecting the golf courses for my vacation trip. provides adequate description of surrounding areas including hotels and tips on making tee times. Could do a better job of describing courses that are not the top-notch courses. The top-tier courses are easy to distinguish by their descriptions, but the other 90% of the courses have no rating system.

An absolute must if you are planning your own UK golf trip

I found this book to be quite helpful. Travel agent should consider this book! Extremely accurate phone #'s and course information. Green fees varied somewhat from published fees. Looking forward to taking the trip I personally set up.

A must-have for golfing travel to the British isles

This book is invaluable. It gives all the details needed to plan and set up a golfing vacation to Great Britain. Golf reviews are short and to the point and quite reliable.
