The Belfry’s new golf offers include no single supplement on golf breaks between Monday to Thursday in October and November and for golf groups*, one in 12 goes free and everyone will receive 20% off all food and drink in Sam’s Club House, where guests while enjoying the stunning views across the PGA National Course. The Belfry is also offering golf getaways from £119** per person including an overnight stay and two rounds of golf, followed by breakfast the next morning, with its ‘1 night, 2 rounds’ package.
The Belfry’s courses are recognised as world-class, having previously hosted The Ryder Cup four times – more than any other venue in the world – and 17 European Tour events, producing some of the most dramatic moments in the history of golf.
This summer, The Belfry also revealed updates to the PGA National including a new risk and reward par 4 on the 18th hole and a new 1st tee layout and golf experience which has been greatly improved with a new tee/green complex befitting the Championship course. The design was inspired by The Belfry’s Ryder Cup course and the PGA course’s brother, The Brabazon, and in particular the iconic 10th hole.
