Dear Fellow
Golfer:
Welcome to the website of
British Isles Links Golf, the most comprehensive guide to the
links courses of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales in
existence. The purpose of this website, and our mission
statement is twofold.
Firstly we want to promote an
understanding of Links Golf, and highlight the rich diversity of
the courses we have here in the British Isles. Our section
entitled "About Links Golf" will help you understand
what exactly constitutes Links Golf, and why virtually all the
authentic links courses reside on these shores. In "Course
Reviews" you will get our frank opinions on almost 200
courses. We highlight famous courses that for the recreational
golfer can be a let down, and at the same time identify largely
unknown courses that you just simply have to play. We have also
supplied a brief narrative entitled "About Our
Reviews" which gives a little more perspective on our
philosophy and some colour on what makes a course famous.
Secondly, we want to promote
our company and the services we offer. The content in this
website is borne of my personal experience in golfing throughout
the UK and Ireland over the last 20 years. In addition to the
course reviews, our section entitled "Vacation
Planning" gives you guidance on where to stay, which
airport to use, the weather you can expect to encounter (to the
extent that the weather here can be predicted!), how much
daylight you have, traveling times plus example itineraries that
get the most out of your vacation.
There is in fact more than
enough information for anyone using this website to plan and
book their own vacation without using an agent. You may ask why
we do this, and the answer is simple. We want to show you that
we know everything there is to know about planning and executing
a first rate links golf vacation, and that if you do choose to
use an agent, we want be at the top of your list.
I hope you enjoy the site and
happy golfing!
With best regards
Barry Jones
Founder and Managing Director
