Traveling abroad for a golfing vacation is a must-do for any golfer who is serious about their game. However, there are occasions when this is simply not feasible. Whether it's because it's difficult to plan, coordinate with mates, or actually doesn't fit into the budget, there are a variety of reasons for this.

Fortunately, there are over 2500 golf courses in the United Kingdom alone. Not only that, but golf as we know it today originated in Scotland!

But you can rest assured that some of the best golf in the world is just a drive, a chip, and a putt away.
