Escape to England's famous golf coast & play Open Championship courses

Otherwise known as England’s Golf Coast, the stretch of coastline from Liverpool to Southport, and even further north up to Blackpool, is home to a selection of the best links courses in the UK.

When you think of golf in Liverpool, the star attractions are the regal trio of Royal Liverpool, Royal Birkdale and Royal Lytham & St Anne’s, which between them have hosted more than 30 Open Championships. But don’t overlook the likes of Formby Links, Hillside, Southport & Ainsdale, West Lancashire and Wallasey where you’ll be amazed at the value and quality of golf on offer.

For those who want to experience some of the very best links golf in the UK – all within easy reach of the lively Victorian seaside resort of Southport or iconic city of Liverpool - this superb area of England is hard to beat.
