Golf holidays with something more

A great golf trip should be about more than tee times and a hotel.

Simon Buckley Golf Trips combine carefully chosen destinations, excellent golf, quality accommodation and the support of an experienced PGA Professional.

Simon is there throughout the trip to help you get more from your game, whether that means a little swing advice, better course management, improving your short game or simply helping you play with greater confidence.

The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly and sociable.

Come with friends, travel as a couple or join us on your own.

All you need to do is choose your trip, book your flight and pack your clubs.

Why travel with Simon?

Your golf holiday, made better

Simon Buckley, PGA Professional

Simon Buckley

PGA Professional

Simon has spent more than 40 years as a PGA Professional, helping golfers understand their game and play with greater confidence.

His approach on tour is deliberately simple.

This is not a week of technical lessons or endless swing changes.

Instead, Simon works with the game you already have and helps you make practical improvements that can make a difference immediately.

Meet Simon

That might mean:

  • Improving your short game.
  • Making better decisions on the course.
  • Understanding why a particular shot keeps going wrong.
  • Preparing properly before a round.
  • Or simply having someone experienced there when you need a second opinion.

The coaching fits around the holiday, not the other way round.

More than a golf trip

Good golf. Good company. No pressure.

One of the best parts of a hosted golf trip is the people you meet.

Our trips are intentionally relaxed and welcoming, with small groups of golfers who share a love of the game.

You do not need to arrive with a group.

Solo golfers are very welcome.

You do not need to be a low-handicap player either.

The aim is simple: enjoy excellent golf in a great destination, learn something along the way and have a memorable holiday.

What golfers say

Rated 5.0 from 28 Google reviews of Simon Buckley Golf Coaching

“I have now been on my third golfing holiday with Simon, and for me it was the best. Two hour coaching every morning - great tips and help for my swing, chips, putting or anything else you wanted help with. Simon does the best golf holidays!!!”
Olivya Oulton
“Another great week in Corfu with Simon. The personalised coaching was brilliant, every session suited to me. The proof of how good he is: my handicap has dropped by 10 points. I would recommend his coaching and his golf tours to any range of players.”
Eddie Lennox
“I’ve had great coaching from Simon and reduced my handicap as a result. Last November went to Spain for a coaching trip. Brilliant fun including coaching every day. Met superb like minded new golf buddies and enjoyed every day.”
