(A Different Kind of Golf Break)
Mad Swans in the Mendip Hills offers something genuinely different from the standard UK golf resort experience. This is not your conventional 18-hole championship setup — and that is precisely what makes it special.
Whether you're planning a weekend away with your regular four-ball or organising a larger group trip, Mad Swans delivers something unique: a destination where the golf is as challenging as any course you'll play, and the off-course offering keeps everyone entertained long after the final putt drops.
The first thing to address: Mad Swans plays over 12 holes rather than the traditional 18. Before you dismiss it, hear us out — this is a proper, full-length challenge that demands respect from the very first tee.
The course sits within the dramatic Mendip landscape, and the terrain does not forgive mistakes. Miss the fairway here and you will pay the price. The rough is uncompromising, the lies are punishing, and recovery shots test every club in the bag. Many golfers who play Mad Swans for the first time leave with a genuine score to chase on the return visit — and that is exactly what keeps you coming back.
What sets Mad Swans apart as a break destination is the breadth of activities available alongside the golf. This is a venue that has been built with groups in mind — not just golfers, but friends and couples who want variety.
