Golf Travel Show by Let's Play Thru

This last episode in our mini-series on South Australia sees Brent Hill from Tourism SA take us around three regions all within an hour of Adelaide.  The regions featured are; The Fleurieu Peninsula, Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley.   All of these regions have a common theme of great Golf, Food and of course....wine! The best bit though - they're so affordable and accessible!   Throw in some real Aussie wildlife with Kangaroos lining the courses and other native fauna, and this is the real hidden secret of Golf in South Australia.   If you want to escape the City and get out towards a variety of Golf courses, rolling countryside, beaches and wineries, check this one out. https://tourism.sa.gov.au/ https://fleurieupeninsula.com.au/ https://www.visitadelaidehills.com.au/ https://www.barossa.com/

This episode features Brent Hill from the South Australian Tourism Commission Shaun Green from Golf Explorer who operate the "Four Reds" package.   Brent talks through what makes South Australia so great as a tourist destination. As well as giving us a run down of Golf courses and regions, Brent highlights some of the must-do's while you're in town. A Golfer himself, Brent plays at Glenelg Golf Club located in the seaside suburb of Glenelg.   Shaun Green of Golf Explorer tells us about the awesome and unique "Four Reds" package. There are a range of packages that see Golfers stay at top quality hotels and play a selection of Adelaide's top courses. After the round players wine and dine but the unique feature here is that each club features a partner winery with a premium red wine. A great way to structure your package in Adelaide. https://tourism.sa.gov.au/ https://www.golfexplorer.com.au/four-reds.html If you're enjoying the podcast, don't forget to subscribe to Lets Play Thru on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgb-p291xQ_hUx7hQtOb72A?sub_confirmation=1

We kick off our first Australian mini-series with a trip to South Australia and its capital city - Adelaide. Gabe also welcomes a new host in Leighton Walker, an Australian native now living and managing a Golf Club in the UK.   Gabe speaks to Leighton about the delights of Golf in South Australia as well as in-and-around Adelaide. Adelaide is a cosmopolitan "boutique" city with great food, wine, art and culture as well as some amazing Golf Courses! It has its own mini-sandbelt and the big four courses of Grange, Kooyonga, Glenelg and Royal Adelaide may capture much of the attention, but there are plenty of other great courses in and outside of the city to choose from.   Theses courses are kind on the budget too.  This place may not be on everyone's radar but it certainly should be and we encourage you to get in early on this one!

I've played a few courses in my day, and I've got to say, Portstewart Golf Club's front 9 is at the top of my list in terms of wow factor. From the opening tee shot on the Strand course, staring out over the coastline below, my jaw was agape. It continued the entire round. Even on the back nine which doesn't get as much love, but I think is just as memorable as the front.  Judy Hutton, the club's General Manager joins us to discuss the history of the club and all there is to see and do on property and in the town of Portstewart. If you're headed to Ireland, and especially if your visit brings you to Northern Ireland, Portstewart Golf Club is a must play.  Learn more about Portstewart: https://www.portstewartgc.co.uk Subscribe to Let's Play Thru on YouTube and follow along on our golf adventures: https://letsplaythru.com/subscribe  Check out our golf product reviews on Amazon and join us LIVE weekly: https://www.amazon.com/shop/letsplaythru  **This is the third episode of our series on Irish Golf Travel and we hope you'll join us on another episode soon.**
