Golf equipment rental business Clubstohire.com is reporting a surge in bookings as golf travel across continental Europe, and destinations further afield, begins to return to pre-pandemic levels.
With increased confidence in countries getting on top of the pandemic and, for example, Portugal having vaccinated all eligible citizens, golf travel is well on its way to recover towards levels last seen in 2019. Last-minute bookings for autumn golf trips are proving particularly popular, as are those for Spring 2022 and beyond.
Tony Judge, CEO Clubstohire: “In the last few weeks we have sold out in all our key locations across Spain and Portugal. Several golf groups that have been on the books for 18 months have now taken the plunge and travelled to get some golf in the sun.
“We knew there was was pepped up demand as our clients have waited almost two years to get away. It was fantastic to welcome our clients back and they were delighted to be back golfing safely in the sun. Autumn is currently very busy and we are now preparing for a hectic Spring 2022 market.”
Clubstohire offers rental sets from top brands like TaylorMade, Callaway, PING, PXG, Titleist, Wilson and others. The company provides the option to pick up the sets from their outlets in Faro, Malaga, Alicante and Palma de Mallorca, with the added bonus of being able to pick your own putter on arrival. Alternatively, delivery to your hotel or golf course can also be arranged.
Outside of the shop outlets, Clubstohire also services various other airports through a network of agents delivering upon arrival. With destinations outside of Spain and Portugal, like Turkey, Ireland, Scotland, Cyprus, South Africa and Thailand, you will be able to rent your set and save yourself the hassle and risk of taking your own set.
Launched in 2010, and with more than 10 years experience in club hire, the company has grown from strength to strength. Pre-covid, it handled more than 300,000 annual visits to its website and more than 50,000 bookings for rental clubs at 25 locations worldwide, including popular golfing regions in the USA, Thailand, South Africa and five countries across the Mediterranean.
Clubs can be rented from €40 per set per week via www.clubstohire.com.
