About this trip

Excellent trip.  Accommodations were outstanding.  The hotel was great about opening the kitchen early for days we had early tee times scheduled.  Our driver, James, was a key contributor to the overall enjoyment of the trip.  He knew the best pubs and the history of the places we visited.  His knowledge and sense of humor made him an integral part of our adventure.  Having all the arrangements coordinated and scheduled was a huge convenience.  Wouldn't do a trip like this any other way going forward.
