As 2025 bookings reach capacity for many of the most sought-after golf itineraries in Ireland and Scotland, we’re seeing an unprecedented surge in demand that’s already spilling over into the 2026 travel season. The allure of playing the historic links courses—St Andrews, Royal County Down, Lahinch, and North Berwick, to name a few—has never been stronger, and discerning golf travelers are making plans further in advance.
In recent years, we’ve seen a consistent rise in demand from golfers eager to experience the iconic courses in Ireland and Scotland. With international travel reopening in full force and golf tourism seeing a renewed vigor post-pandemic, many of the premium slots for 2025 were snatched up faster than ever before.
Now, with 2025 itineraries almost fully booked, savvy travelers are locking in their 2026 plans. The desire to secure prime tee times, stay at exclusive accommodations, and enjoy seamless, curated experiences is at an all-time high. This means if you wait too long, you could miss out on the most desirable opportunities.
We anticipate continued high demand for Scotland and Ireland golf trips in 2026, especially as more golfers look to experience top-ranked courses during peak seasons. This surge is driven by both returning golfers who can’t get enough of links golf and first-timers hoping to check off bucket-list rounds. As always, shoulder seasons like late spring and early autumn may offer more flexibility, but even these times are filling up fast.
The demand for the world’s best golf itineraries in Ireland and Scotland isn’t slowing down anytime soon. With the 2025 calendar filling up, 2026 is already on the horizon for many golfers. To make sure you don’t miss out, it’s crucial to start planning now.
