Bowls Holidays


IOW Tours has built up a reputation for quality Bowls Tours for over 30 years.
The experience our Holiday Team share with you assures your Bowls Tour with IOW Tours will be one that will be remembered for years to come - IOW Tours offer unique packages with attention to detail that are value for money.

Make it a Tour to Remember – Be it an Annual Club Holiday; Anniversary, Centenary or Presidents Tour; or just a general get-together. With our dedicated Bowls Coordinator always available to discuss your requirements from start to finish, we make sure your Bowls Tour is tailored to your club’s needs.

Destination - Is it somewhere you have always hoped to visit or somewhere you have enjoyed before? We can get you bowling on the green you have always dreamed of.

Accommodation - We use a wide variety of hotels and holiday villages throughout the United Kingdom and the Channel Islands that can cater for every budget from 2 star to 5 star. We can advise to the best accommodation for you and your club. 

Dates - When are you looking to go? Do you need to work around County Fixtures? Let us know the date and leave the rest to us.

Games - Whether you play Indoors, Outdoors or Short Mat Bowls we work closely with clubs and venues throughout the country to arrange your matches.

As standard our Bowls Tours include:
  • Promotional material, leaflet and full-colour posters for your club
  • 1 place free of charge on 26 people, 2 free places on 50 people
  • Return Coach Travel from your chosen pick-up point, from anywhere in the UK
  • En-suite accommodation with all the facilities expected by today’s discerning traveller
  • All fixtures arranged and booked by our in-house Bowls Coordinator
  • All Green Fees, tea and biscuits at match venues
  • Coach Transfers to and from games
  • Later meal-times to allow you to use the clubs facilities after a game
  • Last Night Presentation with Wine Reception
  • Organiser’s pack with Tour Itinerary, Match Fixtures, IOW Tours Bowls Tourist Stickers and Club details

Any Extras – A meal after the match, possibly on the way home? A pre match buffet? Make the last evening special? Why not look to have a gala dinner? An excursion to local places of interest?  Trophies and Medals can be arranged - getting them engraved. A Tour Booklet for each of your party as a memento. These are some of the added extras we can organise for you.

Why not look at our Select Bowls Tours - These tours are great value for money. The venues we use throughout every bowls season on these holidays, offer us the best discounts for your group. By you using IOW Tours, you know that any group discounts are passed on to you.

Smaller ClubWe can help! We look at you joining up with another bowls team – or even price your Club Tour on reduced numbers. Just let us know when you talk to us.

What happens next: After an initial consultation we send out an information pack detailing the proposed date, venue and the price per person. Your Bowls Coordinator is always on hand to answer any queries you may have. 

Working together and with our combined knowledge, your members will be asking “Where are we going to next?”

Coach Driver’s Hours

Due to UK regulations relating to coach drivers’ hours, all drivers must have a certain rest period during a week’s tour. We endeavour to arrange a morning match, followed by a day to explore the resort and then an afternoon match on the following day. Alternatively, we can hire in a coach for the day, for a travel supplement.
