Not wishng to put you off but we have friends who have looked into this and found it almost impossible to compete with the large hotels and golf complexes who virtually give away either the golf or accomodation.

You may find that it is just not worth the trouble ( See my post on is CVO open ) or look in any of the Golf magazines.

Algarve Golf U.K. can offer this type of package. See www.algarve-golf.co.uk and speak to Richard Ballington.

Had a look , its almost cheaper to take one of their accom plus golf packages than it is to pay for just the golf.

You can contact Richard in Portugal on 914 194 899.

I have no interest in his company and do not even play golf but many of my golfing friends recommend him.

Can only endorse what Roy has said, used Richard for many years and he has never let us down. Highly recommended.

I won't go near companys now and do it all ourselves and it works out way cheaper than going through any golf companies.....last year 5 nights,4 rounds,car hire and flights came in at a total of £420.

I think that as there were 12 of them and it was NOT high season that it was easier to get the deals .
