Ormskirk Golf Club

Looking to tee off near Southport? Ormskirk Golf Club is a solid option, and only a short drive. It's not a links course like you get closer to the coast (Royal Birkdale is hosting The Open in 2026, if you want a real challenge). Ormskirk Golf Club is more of a parkland course, so expect tree-lined fairways and well-maintained greens.

The course gets a 4.7 out of 5 based on 130 Google reviews, so people seem pretty happy with it. They're open every day from 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM, which is handy. It's a well-established club that's been around a while, so you know what you're getting.

I haven't played there myself in a couple of years, but I've heard the greens are in good shape. Green fees are probably best checked on their website (ormskirkgolfclub.com), or give them a ring on 01695 572227.

One thing to remember: it can get pretty busy on weekends, so booking a tee time in advance is definitely recommended to avoid disappointment.
