Founded: 1884
Formby stands out as the most picturesque among the distinguished selection of eight links courses situated between the charming coastal town of St Annes and the bustling city of Liverpool. Its scenic beauty is enhanced by the encompassing pine trees, imparting a softer, heathland ambiance to the links. Spanning across 470 acres within a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), Formby Golf Club remains one of the rare locales in England where spotting the native Red Squirrel is possible.
Established in 1884, Formby Golf Club initially featured a nine-hole course for its members. The course was expanded to 18 holes in 1912 by Willie Park Junior, with subsequent alterations by James Braid in 1922 and Harry Colt in 1933. In response to coastal erosion concerns in the 1980s, Donald Steel undertook revisions and lengthened the course to over 7,000 yards from the tips, ensuring its contemporary appeal.
What an epic experience this golf trip was with Proscot Golf Tours . Nicola & and John made this golf trip very accommodating for us all .
