Tour pro Eddie Pepperell opens up about food, travel and advice that shaped him in Hotel Planner’s Player in Focus segment.
While known for his candid personality and witty commentary on social media, Eddie Pepperell offers a more introspective look into his personal preferences and values in the latest Hotel Planner Player in Focus feature presented by Instagram creator Ellie Collins (@elliec0llins).
Favourite destination surprises and cultural highlights
Asked about his favourite event on the Hotel Planner schedule, Pepperell pointed to Kolkata, India – a city he found unexpectedly captivating. Visiting with his partner Jen, he describes the experience as fascinating, highlighting the cultural immersion and world-class golf facilities as major draws.
When it comes to holiday destinations, Pepperell lights up at the mention of his recent trip to the Isle of Skye. Accompanied by his dogs, he found the scenery breathtakingly beautiful, surpassing all expectations and earning his endorsement as his dream destination.
Steak lover and apocalyptic cinema fan
Food is another area where the Englishman doesn’t hold back. Steak takes top honours as his favourite, a fitting choice given its prominence in athlete diets. It’s a practical and enjoyable go-to he claims to eat the most.
For downtime off the course, Pepperell admits to a soft spot for binge-worthy series and intense cinema. ‘Stranger Things’ is his top pick for series due to its gripping storyline, while his favourite film – the darkly entertaining ‘World War Z’ – appeals to him for its apocalyptic theme and, amusingly, Brad Pitt’s involvement.
Timeless advice and dreams beyond golf
One of the standout moments from the interview is Pepperell’s recollection of the best advice he ever received: Treat everyone the same – from the binman to the queen. It’s a principle, passed on by his father, that he claims to live by both on and off the course.
He also imagines life beyond the fairways. If not a professional golfer, Pepperell thinks he’d likely become a food critic – a role that combines his passion for gastronomy with his flair for observation. Alternately, he jokes, something in sarcasm might be fitting, showcasing his trademark humour.
Spain, superpowers and a driver’s dream
Spain holds a special place in his heart, particularly the islands, thanks to their food and rich cultural atmosphere. For superpowers, Pepperell offers a surprisingly humble wish: to hit a better drive – a nod to how even top professionals continually seek improvement.
This deeper dive into Pepperell’s personality is both refreshing and illustrative of his thoughtful nature. The feature does more than entertain – it reminds fans that behind the scores and swings are individuals with rich, relatable lives.
