Southport & Ainsdale Golf Club was established in 1906 and is located in the North West of England. The revered James Braid conceived the original layout at Southport and Ainsdale and has created a very testing championship links golf course. Based on the coast, this golf course offers beautiful views, sea breeze and a profusion of heather and gorse giving this course something for everyone.
Over the years Southport and Ainsdale have hosted its fair share of golf competitions and the biggest being The Ryder Cup. S&A hosted these matches in 1933 and 1937 along with events like The Women's Open and The Amateur Championship. The club was a regular stop for final qualifying for The Open Championship when played at nearby Royal Birkdale Golf Club and has been voted one of the best 50 golf courses in Great Britain.
Located within a short drive of other sensational links golf courses including Hillside Golf Club, Formby Golf Club and West Lancashire Golf Club, a visit to this part of the North West of England is sure to be one of the very best golf tours you can enjoy within the UK.

Braid's creation is set amidst the sand dunes of England's best golfing stretch, and demands patient, accurate ball-striking, as the penalties for straying off-line are severe. There are many superb holes to negotiate at Southport and Ainsdale, not least the charming par-3s such as the 8th and 13th.
As a quintessential links track, lovers of seaside golf should ensure a visit during a tour of Southport's magnificent courses. With an offering of beautiful views, sea breeze, heather and gorse, you will be certain to have a real challenge.
Unusually, Southport and Ainsdale opens with a short hole, so make sure you sharpen you iron play on the range before teeing off.
Southport & Ainsdale Golf Club is ranked as one of the best courses in North West England

What a great surprise this was! In many way at par with Royal Lytham & St Anne. Would recommend to anyone and will come back, for sure!

Very firm and fast when we played it. Lots of blind shots, so take a course guide with you. As with any course, if you avoid trouble it’s very scoreable.

Great challenge especially with the constant wind. Club pro was not very welcoming but catering staff were very attentive. Recommend the 9-hole breakfast

This course is an underappreciated gem. It is imaginative in design and in great condition. Not famous, but therefore a great value for the money. Very friendly, welcoming staff.

An easier experience than Hillside and Birkdale due to its flatter terrain, but none the less very enjoyable and a great course to finish the trip with.
