Belek - end of thread.
Carya and Monty are top class. The other courses are not as good but would make top 10% of UK courses.
All the usual suspects you can book. Ask them to tailor your needs. Play different courses every day. Also plan 1 rest day in the middle. Don’t stick to 4 rounds at Faldo etc

If it's definitely abroad then the best two value places are Turkey and Morocco. Spain and Portugal have more destinations but they tend to be more expensive.
Turkey - Belek is the place. Loads of massive hotels with loads of courses. Bilyana ( owned by Turkish tourist board) is a good organiser but you'll probably have to book flights yourself. Good hotels are Titanic, Cornelia Diamond and Gloria. Also try Golf Kings, they get good deals.
Morocco - the main areas are Marrakech, with desert style courses, or the Atlantic coast round Agadir. Try Golf Kings or Your Golf Travel or Par 5 Escapes.

I'd say Ginger Travel was pretty good 
So an interesting suggestion (there are plenty closer, Portugal, Morocco etc) but if you can cope with a 12 hour flight from London, the Constance Hotel Group has 2 European Seniors Tour courses in Mauritius which are free for hotel guests! You pay for a buggy unless you're on an all inclusive rate. So if you were going to play every day, it's worth considering (you'd need at least 7 nights because of the flight) and it's surprisingly not that expensive. My son's and I played last summer and had a great time.
But on a lower budget closer by, a package at somewhere like Hilton Istantilla (fly to Faro, just over an hour's drive) might be a worthwhile option. The Algarve courses are closer to Faro Airport but expensive.

Agree with JRDP.
Belek without doubt the best option. We use Bilyana travel, not the cheapest but they’re top notch. Cheaper alternatives Cyprus or Marrakesh, both very good but not the quality or options that Belek offers.
Is this something you would book on your own individually Tommo.
If you can get those deals, set up in the golf travel business. I tried to book a week in the Algarve in May for 16 and couldn't get the price under £1500 per head.

Yes, and I’ve done it for those costs. Obviously not in peak season or school holidays. Western Algarve is a bit cheaper and nicer IMO

Yes I do. It it completely full every morning at the moment. With players from frozen parts of northern Europe. Will be like that until after Easter.
What time of year are you planning on having the holiday?

Sorry, it's not me who is looking to play golf, it is Red76.
I love watching golf but have never really played it.
I'm flexible really, trying to talk four lads into going Golfing, all play golf but have a feeling it might work out too expensive for some, and end up opting for just lads non golfing holiday.
Thanks Tommo
Sounds like a great holiday that, golf and fishing sounds like heaven to me.I go to constance belle plage in may to play golf for wifeys 50th really looking forward to it we are all inclusive so golf is free
