Golfbreaks has been acquired by Sports Tours International

March 2026 — Golfbreaks, a global leader in golf travel, has been sold to Sports Tours International. The Golfbreaks brand will continue to operate from its headquarters in Windsor and its four founders, Andrew Stanley, Steve Hemsworth, Guy Proddow and Daniel Grave, will remain with the business. The transaction brings together two highly complementary platforms, combining Golfbreaks’ established position in golf travel with Sports Tours International’s broader portfolio and growth ambitions.

Founded in 1998, Golfbreaks is the market leader in golf travel, sending more than 230,000 golfers each year to its network of more than 1,000 partner resorts. With 200 employees based in Windsor, UK, Charleston, USA and Copenhagen, Denmark, the company has built a strong reputation for long-term partnerships, operational excellence and customer-first service.

Sports Tours International is the global market leader in mass-participation sports travel, with offices in the UK, France, Ireland and the USA. It is the official tour operator to the TCS London Marathon, Europe’s only premium tour operator to the Tour de France and the UK’s exclusive partner to Club La Santa in Lanzarote, Europe’s number one sports resort.
