Golf holidays in Spain are perfect for those travelling on a range of budgets as green fees can vary so much, it has been claimed. According to GO2Spain, Spain boasts sunshine and the "sparkling" Mediterranean Sea in addition to luxurious hotels and great restaurants and some of the best golf resorts in the world. You can save a considerable sum on green fees if you book your golf tee times in advance.

In particular, it notes that the so-called "golf mile" is the "ultimate experience" for golf lovers and features five of Spain's best courses. The green fees vary greatly at each course. And it was recently reported that a selection of golfers from Sussex were victorious at a recent golf tournament hosted by La Manga Club.

The Argus noted that the Sussex under-18s team beat the local Murcian golfers 8-2 at the seaside resort. La Manga Club is located on the Mar Menor inland sea and features several golf courses including accommodation that offers vistas over the North course and other greens. The green fees on each of the courses are the same. Golf enthusiasts often choose to take a holiday in Spain, particularly in the region of Murcia, because of the number of golf courses on offer in the area.

Murcia, which is also appealing to those seeking the perfect family holiday in Spain, is host to some of the world's best golf courses, including Polaris World's Condad de Alhama development, featuring three championship courses designed by pro golfer Jack Nicklaus. "It's like a little community of its own, so even if you don't play golf, there's loads to do," Elaine Wallace of Scotland told the Sun. "It's going to be a great place for our family."

La Manga Club boasts a number of quality golf courses, which are ideal for a golf holiday or for a golf break during a family holiday. Tee times and green fees can be pre booked. The club also offers a golf academy, as well as private lessons from PGA-qualified professional instructors.

More Britons are interested in incorporating sport into their holidays, such as their luxury holidays in Spain, it has been reported. According to the Association of Independent Tour Operators (AITO), an increasing range of sports-related holidays are now available from UK operators.

The news comes after figures from the Office of National Statistics Social Trends 2008 survey suggested that the number of UK residents regularly taking part in sport and exercise is on the increase. "People are much more aware of health issues and the fact that our sedentary daily lives leave us open to potential heart attack and stroke problems in later life," Derek Moore, chairman of AITO, said.

He added that Britons no longer want to spend a two-week break sat on a beach "sunning ourselves". Golf and tennis were cited as popular holiday activities by Mr Moore.

La Manga Club offers several championship quality award winning golf courses for such active holidaymakers.
