From 5th May 2021 while we can still cover you under the standard sections of our travel insurance policy while on a Golf holiday we are temporarily unable to offer the additional cover provided by the Golf optional extra section, while we make improvements to the booking engine of our website.

However, this is just a temporary measure. In the near future we will be able to offer this extra cover to golfers on our policies once more. Policies purchased before 5th May 2021 aren’t affected and your cover won’t change.

Golf Travel Insurance

Golf holiday insurance to give you peace of mind. 

More and more golf enthusiasts are taking a break from their local club and combining their love of sport with their love of travel, visiting unique and beautiful destinations around the world.

Ireland is home to some of the world’s most famous and challenging golf courses. You can play a round at Ballybunion, which is one of the most spectacular links golf courses in the world, or you can try tackling one of Ireland’s famous Ryder Cup courses, such as The K Club.

But if you want to travel abroad, there are plenty of places to perfect your swing further afield. In mainland Europe, you can play the same courses as European Tour pros like Rory McIlroy; there’s Le Golf National in France and the famous Stadium Course at PGA Catalunya in Spain, for example.

Or, you can take the holiday of a lifetime and head across the Atlantic to play the finest courses the USA has to offer. You can literally walk in the footsteps of Tiger Woods at Pebble Beach, or take on one of the most iconic golf shots in the world at TPC Sawgrass.

If you’re planning to escape on a golf break this year, in Ireland or somewhere more exotic, make sure you buy golf travel insurance before you travel. Our golf insurance will help cover your essential items, including your beloved clubs, and protect you against risks such as cancellation, baggage loss and emergency medical expenses.

With golf insurance from one of the world’s largest travel insurance and assistance companies, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your trip. Our international and multilingual team of talented people are available to help 24/7, 365 days a year in the event of a medical emergency.

What does golf travel insurance cover? 

Our golf holiday insurance is available as an add-on when you buy Single Trip or Annual insurance. You’ll also need to purchase either a Silver or a Gold level of cover. You’ll then be protected against:
  • Cancelling or curtailing your trip
  • Emergency medical and associated expenses
  • Loss of passport
  • Delayed personal possessions
  • Lost, stolen or damaged personal possessions
  • Loss of money
  • Personal accident
  • Missed departures
  • Delayed departures
  • Personal liability

*Only available with Gold cover.
Terms and Conditions apply.

When you select travel insurance including golf cover, you’ll also be protected against:
  • Loss of green fees: If you have to cancel your trip or cut it short, or if you cannot play golf because of an injury or illness during your trip, we’ll pay up to the amount shown in your schedule for green fees that you have paid and cannot recover from anywhere else.
  • Delayed golf equipment: We’ll pay up to the amount shown in the schedule for you to hire alternative golf equipment if yours is stolen on your outward journey, or is delayed for more than 12 hours from when you arrived at your destination.
  • Golf equipment: We’ll pay up to the amount shown in the schedule for golf equipment that is damaged, stolen, lost or destroyed on your trip.
Please note that, as part of our golf equipment insurance, we’ll decide whether to pay the cost of repairing your items, whether to replace your belongings with equivalent items or pay the cost of replacing your items (in which case we’ll take off an amount for wear, tear and loss of value).
