Travelling golfers want to play the better courses

Among the hundreds of thousands of golfers in the world, many
are avid travellers. They like to combine holidays, weekend
breaks and business trips with a chance to play the best courses
in their chosen destinations. Great courses act like magnets to
discerning golfers. Poor quality courses and facilities are not
what travelling golfers are typically looking for - although
value for money is often a consideration.
It is surprisingly difficult however, for travelling golfers to
identify the best areas for golfing breaks, which courses to
play when they get there, and what to expect from any particular
course. Most of the available guides (books) contain purely
factual information and give the golfer little idea of the
quality of the courses, or which courses will give them the best
"golfing day-out. Distinctively different from golf guides
mentioned above, are large, glossy, coffee-table books, that
might delve into very considerable detail on a few "blue-chip"
courses - but are far from ideal for planning and booking
golfing trips or holidays. Many online golf guides display all
golf courses but fail to answer key questions for golfers.
Travel sites list only those golf clubs and hotels with which
they have commercial arrangements. Still other sites show only
the very top courses or focus on a limited geography.
Travelling golfers often want to play the better courses in an
area, and need a reliable rating system, contact details and
information about what they'll find when they get there.

covers currently 750 top golf courses situated in UK & Ireland,
Belgium, Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Sweden,

"ambience" of the selected golfing destination. With a
