A tremendous course

One of the best in the North West. Add this to any trip to the area. The 7th is one of the finest par 4 holes in the country.

Formby fantastic second year running

Golfshake Team ReviewJust 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

Golfshake Team ReviewIncredible -can't wait to go back. it is just a fabulous course. I could not stop getting my ipad out to capture the scenery. wish I took my A game - if you miss the fairway on the first few you are hacking multiple tikmes out of heather. be warned. Standouts are the evelvated tees on 9th and 14th =- just love the 8th par 5. what a tee shot.

One the best courses you'll ever play. Didn't play great but still enjoyed it. Greens were so good even though it was October but they look like they would be great all year round.
