The Seascape Suite

Alright, so you're looking for a place to crash in town? The Seascape Suite could be a shout. It's smack-bang in the centre of Southport, so dead handy for the shops and the sea front. I spotted it on Bluepillow, and it seems decent enough if you want an apartment-style setup rather than a full-on hotel. Looks like it suits couples or maybe a small family.

Now, I haven't stayed there myself, but it's in a good spot. Just be aware that being central means you might get a bit of noise at night, especially on weekends. I’d check recent reviews to see if folks have mentioned anything about that. I don't have a rating or review count for this place, but I'd always do your homework before booking.

If you're coming for The Open at Birkdale in 2026, this could be a good option if you don't fancy staying right out in Birkdale itself. You'll be able to walk to the train station easily enough, and it's only a short ride to the course. Plus, you get to enjoy Southport's nightlife after a day on the greens.

Before you book, have a proper look at the photos and read the small print about check-in and check-out. Central Southport parking can be a pain, so suss out parking options beforehand – maybe call them up and ask where's best to park, or check the council website.
