Yes, this is perfect for golfing fans who might also be considering buying a new-build home. Whether you’re buying your first home, downsizing, or looking for a larger family home that brings all the benefits new builds offer, you should take a look at some of these new developments where a golf course is only a short drive away.
We might be preaching to the converted, but for those who don’t know, there are so many benefits to be had playing golf. Not only is it a great form of exercise requiring walking and lots of flexibility with swing action, but it aids just as much with your mental wellbeing.
The game can help reduce stress as you step out into the fresh air and away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It helps improve concentration, accuracy and focus and boosts our body’s “happy” hormones, as well as helping you get a good night’s sleep. All that fresh air!
A social sport, golf helps you meet new people and make new friendship groups. It’s a sport that’s growing in popularity across all ages, men and women alike. And with Rory McIlroy recently winning The Masters and completing his career grand slam, more people are picking up a set of clubs to give golf a go.
