Frequently Asked Questions

Is Hertfordshire a good destination for a dedicated golf trip?

Honestly, if you're coming to England solely for golf, Hertfordshire isn't your primary stop. You won't find any courses within its borders, so we recommend looking to neighboring counties like Buckinghamshire or Bedfordshire for your rounds. Think of Hertfordshire as a base for other activities, not your golf hub.

What can I do in Hertfordshire if I'm not playing golf?

Hertfordshire offers a charming English countryside experience, perfect for non-golfing days or if you're traveling with non-golfers. You'll find beautiful stately homes like Knebworth House, lovely market towns to explore, and plenty of scenic walking trails. It's a great spot for a relaxing break, just without the clubs.

If I stay in Hertfordshire, how far will I have to travel to play golf?

You'll definitely need to venture outside Hertfordshire's county lines to hit the links, but thankfully, excellent options are close by. Expect a drive of 20-40 minutes to reach top-tier courses in places like Buckinghamshire or Essex, making it feasible for day trips. Consider staying near the county borders for the shortest commutes.

When is the best time to visit Hertfordshire, especially if golf isn't the main focus?

For enjoying the countryside and attractions without the golf pressure, we suggest late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October). The weather is generally pleasant, and the tourist crowds are thinner than in peak summer. You'll find comfortable conditions for exploring without worrying about course conditions.

What's the practical advice for planning a 'golf trip' that includes a stay in Hertfordshire?

Our advice is to treat Hertfordshire as a base for exploring the wider region, rather than a golf destination itself. Plan your rounds in adjacent counties first, then look for accommodation in Hertfordshire that suits your non-golfing interests and budget. Factor in daily travel time to and from the courses you choose.
