Summary

In this episode of the NCG Top 100s podcast, Tom Irwin and Dan Murphy tackle a question every travelling golfer asks: where can you find the best value golf in Great Britain and Ireland? Using the NCG Top 100s GB&I Top 250 as their starting point, the pair reveal the courses that deliver the most for your money among the very best venues in the region. The list is built on extensive research into publicly available green fee prices, comparing what visitors actually pay to play these highly ranked courses. Importantly, the prices used do not include resident, member or local rates. The discussion uncovers a fascinating mix of venues - many of them characterful coastal courses with real golfing soul. From standout links such as Hunstanton, Trevose and Seacroft to distinctive inland layouts like Yelverton and Kington - Tom and Dan highlight the courses that combine elite quality with relatively accessible prices. They also explain why regions like East Anglia deserve far more attention when planning a golf trip, and why English and Welsh courses feature so strongly when value is the focus. Along the way, the pair explore how golfers can piece together the perfect golf trip on a budget - proving that some of the best experiences in the GB&I Top 250 don’t necessarily come with the highest green fees.
