Truly Incredible
I have played this course many times and it is incredible. It is a challenge, it is fun and the views are fantastic. The holes are fun and hard at the same time. I would play this course over any of the 3 Open courses in the area any day. Depending on the wind coming off the sea, I have played the par-3 #10 with an 8-iron and with a 3-wood! So the course can be different every time you play it. You have to play this course-a true gem. The club house is splendid too, great staff and you can even stay in the dormy right in the clubhouse. The full package. I normally do not write reviews like this but this course deserves it. Thank you Formby Golf Club!Reviewer Rating

Great course
Played a lot on this course lately as it's drainage has been coping really well with all the rain.Most of the other golf courses are closed do to flooding.
Every time it seems to get more enjoyable as my course management is improving
It's a difficult course for high handicappers with a lot of water hazards and pot bunkers.
The course is well laid out with some very interesting holes.
The green keepers do a fantastic job looking after the course keeping it in excellent condition constantly improving its condition.
Overall I would recommend this course to everyone & is worth a visit.

Formby fantastic second year running
Just live this course. If it is good enough for Bubba Watson's practice before the Open.... say no more. The course is superb. The tree lined first nine are magnificent ( we all struggled to score well) and the back nine links is so enjoyable ( and a bit easier) I find myself standing looking around sucking in all the views not forgetting the sea view from the 10th and the waves were so loud. One golfer drove 6 hours from south coast to be here it is that good. Staying in the Dormy house to play the slightly shorter 'ladies' course tomorrow. Massive shout out to the lady who organises everything Julie Stong in the office. She is so friendly and can't do enough to help make your stay perfect she even say with us to have morning coffee.....she just sums up the place....so friendly! The £240 4 ball with soup and sandwiches is so good value. Only downside was the course was busy before we went out so round took 4 hours 45. So only just finished on the 18th by the lights of the clubhouse(Round played: Nov 2017 - Score: 93 Handicap: 15.1)

Stunning links golf course
Despite the rain I loved every hole on this gorgeous links course. Set with the backdrop of pine trees, each hole is interesting and challenging in its own right. The greens are some of the best I have ever played on. Club has top class practice facilities, good size changing rooms with showers and food in the bar was good value. The pro shop and starter offered a warm welcome especially being the week of The Open. Can't wait to go back one day!19th July 2017

Excellent Links Course
Excellent course in great condition. Plenty of dangers await from deep bunkers, heather, obscured fairways etc. Large challenging greens with undulations, but true roll of the ball. Would certainly help if different coloured flags for pin positions were used. Tough course but very interesting.(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 94 Handicap: 18.2)

What a club, what a welcome, what staff..... from Julie on reception, to Tony at the bar to the extremely helpful waitresses and staff including the exceptionally courteous green staff.
This course was great fun and my first proper links course it was as hard as you may think..... deadly if you dont stay on fairways and the greens were a combination of difficult and fun in judt the right quantity
Highly recommend the dormy accommodation, breakfast and bar food!
This is what golf is supposed to be like everywhere
