What a fantastic links golf course. I'd rather play here than Birkdale any day of the week. A real challenge on the back nine with some amazing scenery.

Royal Birkdale Golf Club

Reviewed By miffjames - Avalon Beach, Australia

There is always great discussion about which is the best of the three Royal courses on the English golf coast around Liverpool. For me it's a toss up between Birkdale and Hoylake. As an Aussie travelling to the UK late in 2019, I had the opportunity to play all three. Birkdale is a stand out from the unique clubhouse architecture through to the magnificent links course that you don't have to be Tiger Woods to enjoy and score well. Every hole is a gem. Couple this with some wonderful history and memorabilia scattered throughout the club house and a pro shop and house staff that treat you like a member, it is one of the great golfing bucket list experiences.

Wallasey Golf Club

Reviewed By bryanbaldwin1 - Chester, United Kingdom

We play at another local Wirral club , but were kindly invited to Wallasey by a member as a birthday gift for my son. As soon as you pull into the car park , the sense of history with the traditional club house hits you . The pro shop staff were extremely friendly and helpful On to the course and although my own golf on the day was awful , none of this had anything to do with the course which I can only describe as sublime. Perfectly manicured greens that run true without bobbles or deviation, crisp clear fairways . well defined rough and beautiful sculptured grass paths all set in lovely rolling dunes on the Wirral coast. The bunkers ( and I visited most of them ) were difficult , were fantastic , lots of clean stone free soft sand giving confidence to dig in and take the shot aggressively . The greens stunning Make no mistake , this is a golfers course , and not for the feint hearted , challenging testing and with the wind a true fight , and all the better for it , some truly outstanding holes which are not all about belting the ball as hard as possible but rather craft , guile and a good golf brain. A golfers golf course. The day was cut short through no fault of anyone's dues to lightening storms and we had to depart half way around. but even there Wallasey's class come to the fore with an instant offer to allow us to replay the round free of charge. If you are looking for a stunning golf course , that treats visitors well , with a beautiful backdrop with fantastic views of coast and sea , look no further.

Clarkes' Golf

Reviewed By AndieDealing - Liverpool, United Kingdom

Visited Clarke’s Golf today after seeing it advertised on a community page on Facebook. It’s easy to find & easy to park - you pay at the lodge where there is a small shop serving drinks & snacks. A family ticket (there were 2 adults & 2 teens) cost £17.50. The course itself is stunning - 18 holes of immaculately kept greens (very tidy with bins around the course) and varying in difficulty. There are benches scattered around the course for weary legs & I’d advise sunscreen & water on hot days like today. Our family certainly had lots of fun & we had a fantastic time here. An ever bigger bonus was that I got 2 holes in 1 - so I was very happy with that - and I got the best score in the family lol.

We have just returned from an unforgettable weekend at Formby golf club stopping in the Dormy House for 2 nights and playing 2 rounds on the Links and one on the Ladies course.We were a party of 8 golfers from North Wales whose handicaps ranged from 1 to 14.From the moment we arrived on Friday morning until we left on Sunday afternoon everything was perfect.We were greeted by Elaine on reception who in a very pleasant manner explained all the procedures now in place and Karen then escorted us to our rooms and explained everything that we needed to know.Throughout our stay all of the staff in the bar and restaurant were very friendly and courteous and went out of their way to make our stay so pleasant.The golf course was absolutely magnificent and in fantastic condition and proved a real test to us all and having played at all the major courses Formby is up there with the best of them.Thanks to the pro for his advice and all the members for making us so welcome.
