What makes Heather & Gorse the best choice for Ireland and Scotland golf tours?

Now retired from our day jobs, we are two golfers who simply want our clients to share the same wonderful experiences we have enjoyed playing golf where it was born- on the linksland of Ireland and Scotland. We organize your golf tour based on when and where you want to travel, golf and sightsee in Ireland and Scotland. When possible, we want to meet with your group in person, but can use the phone, email or video conferencing if that is more convenient or if you are too far away from our home base in southwest Virginia. Below are descriptions of the different sorts of personalized and affordable golf trips to Ireland and Scotland we can help you plan and book.

Cheers to a great round of golf at Carne Golf Links, Ireland.

Buddy Golf Tour

The classic golf trip to Ireland or Scotland. You talk to a few of your regular golfing friends and ask if they would like HEATHER & GORSE to plan and organize an affordable tour to Ireland or Scotland and play golf on world famous links courses. Your group can decide on the desired balance of golf and sightseeing.

Couples, Dads & Daughters, Moms & Sons, and Grandparents Golf Tours

Would you like to golf and/or sightsee with your spouse or significant other...or a large group of couples from your local golf course? Have you always dreamed of taking a Moms, Dads & Daughters or Moms, Dads & Sons golf trip to Ireland or Scotland? HEATHER & GORSE has the solution. If only one of you wants to golf, one partner can golf while the other goes on optional sightseeing tours. We can arrange the sightseeing activities according to the interests of the participants.

PGA Pro-led Golf Tour

Since Heather & Gorse can work directly with members of specific golf clubs, sometimes the PGA Professional at a particular course will take the lead and work with HEATHER & GORSE to plan and organize personalized and affordable golf trips to Ireland and Scotland for club members.

College Golf Team/Corporate Golf Tour

HEATHER & GORSE can work with college golf coaches to create unique opportunities for their team to enjoy the experience of links golf. This is a great opportunity for team building and we will keep trip costs reasonable. Corporate trips can be anything from a small team-building exercise with golf as the vehicle to a full-blown experience for corporate leaders and their business partners.

Golf With Heather & Gorse

One of the owners of HEATHER & GORSE will plan an Ireland/Scotland golf tour...and you can join them! He will personally lead the tour, play golf with you, and serve as a guide to help with any and all questions that participants have. A pre-trip meet & greet will be arranged so that the entire group can get to know each other before leaving for Ireland or Scotland. A minimum of 10 golfers required. The "Golf with HEATHER & GORSE" option is also available for couples' trips.
