With fuel costs and the general cost of living still high remaining, it’s been calculated that those in need of some winter luxury and a few rounds of golf would be better off by £40 doing so abroad.
Figures from Glencor Golf Holidays found that an all-inclusive luxury golf holiday to Portugal would cost less than treating yourself at home in the UK.
Corrie Renton, Director of Glencor, said: “We’ve seen a big increase in people looking for winter luxury, especially when the weather here means getting a round of golf is a rarity. People are always surprised by the cost of all-inclusive. Especially when we start to break down what they get included.”
Cost of luxurious week at home over winter
- Heating and electricity: £45/week[1]
- Food and drink: £100/week[2]
- 5 rounds of golf: £175[3]

- Swim: £42[6]
- Gym: £49[7]

Grand total: £761/week per person. Glencor Golf Holidays found that 7 nights, with five rounds of golf, at the five-star NAU Sao Refael Suites in Albufeira in Portugal costs £674 in November and December.
Flights to Faro at this time of year can be had from as little as £47, for a total of £721.
