Watch it Play it!
Many golfers watch major tournaments and wonder how they would fare if they had the chance to play the same fairways.
Greens of Southern Wales is giving avid golfers the opportunity to do just this with a series of new packages giving golfers the chance to combine a visit to watch a tournament and to play the course the next day.
Clare Birt, Campaign Manager for Greens of Southern Wales believes that this new service will suit a number of visitors who are looking for something a little different in terms of golf breaks. “With preferential tee times wherever possible, this new initiative enables golfers to watch the play one day and then see how they measure up as soon as the course is reopened to the public.
“Alternatively there is the opportunity, courses permitting, for them to play the course prior to the tournaments so that they can really appreciate the challenges which the competitors are facing.”
Southern Wales next year plays host to a number of exciting tournaments, including the Wales Open at the Celtic Manor, The Challenge Tour at the Vale Resort and the Ladies Open at Machynys as well as a host of amateur tournaments.
Greens of Southern Wales is a collection of over 40 golf courses, hotels, inns and cottages. The booking team at Greens of Southern Wales has in-depth local knowledge and can provide bespoke itineraries for visitors.
The team at Greens of Southern Wales will work with you to develop Golf packages to suit your needs and budget.
Clare added, “We appreciate that visitors want to pack as much into their golf breaks as possible which is why we are developing a range of packages so they can watch top quality competitions and also enjoy a round or two of golf themselves.
“Whether your budget allows for a top of the range stay at one of Southern Wales resorts or a more traditional welcome at a local inn we can work with you to develop a suitable itinerary in advance.”
Stephanie Metson, Marketing manager at the Vale Golf, Hotel and Spa Resort said, “These Watch and Play packages really meet a need in the golf break marketplace. At the Vale we are committed to ensuring that all our guests are able to make the most out of their valuable leisure time.”
