Must play course

The ?185 winter visitor rates are expensive, but this is a bucket list course you aren't going to play every week. The course was in good condition despite the recent weather and a real challenge as the wind picked up. Honestly, I'd rather play Formby, Hillside or Royal Lytham now that Birkdale is ticked off my bucket list, must it's a must play course despite the cost, even if only once!

The course can be friendly or a beast, depends on the wind. Steeped in History and with great scenery with views across the Ribble Estuary to Lytham and Blackpool.
A warm welcome in the Clubhouse with excellent food but the Green Fees are on the high side.
My favorite course.
