Royal Birkdale Golf Club

Great golf course. A true test of golf. Every shot had to be thought about, miss the fairway and it became difficult. Absolutely loved it though and drinks on the veranda outside the 18th were great. One to tell the grandchildren about.

Brilliant Golf Course - we had a caddy from other party which was helpful - and had a famous Pro and his family playing behind us. Everyone very friendly at Birkdale and a great time.

It's a splendid course, well protected by its bunkers and the wind. Greens true and in places very tricky. Very good welcome on arrival, and an expert caddie provided. All great fun.

Just brilliant, everything looks great,great staff who meet you and show you where to go. Everyone super friendly Best course I've played

wonderful golf course

Must be one of the best courses in UK. Immaculate condition and the staff very helpful. Great experience, expensive but worth it.

An incredible experience. It was super hard as so many long par 4s. And a lot of bunkers. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly.

great course and staff very friendly and good facilities .

Fantastic course

The short rough is surprisingly forgiving and a contrast to the other two links courses we played. The best welcome from knowledgable greeters. Access all areas at the clubhouse and a warm welcome at the pro shop. Some prestige golf venues can be a little stuffy and aloof. Not in this case. The staff we met were all a credit to the Royal Birkdale organisation. It was an unforgettable experience and I will never get tired of telling people about it

Fantastic experience....all staff exceptional

Amazing course. From being greeted at the pro shop, the facilities, clubhouse and course itself it’s a worldie. Should be on everyone’s bucket list

Despite 50 mile an hour winds and rain we thoroughly enjoyed our round. We'd like to play it again in better weather. The Birkdale Experience including dinner is highly recommended.

The whole experience was excellent! The staff were very welcoming and they couldn’t have done more! The course was in excellent condition considering it was the end of March and the weather wasn’t fantastic! We will 100% be visiting again!

Great experience. Light winds on the day helped us a lot. Lovely atmosphere and people

Of the five courses played this one was my favorite by a narrow margin over Royal Liverpool. The welcome was the epitome of graciousness. The course is beautiful, tough, and very enjoyable. I'd love to play here daily. It is a thinking ballstriker's course.

Great golf course!!!

Worth every penny, great course & clubhouse Very welcoming Everything a top course should be

A very challenging course but I thought the holes got a bit monotonous , if not for the history it was average links

A wonderful day, just loved the whole experience, but found the course quite tight for a 15 handicap,but the course was fabulous

Great fairways sandy turf as you would expect the ball ran for miles Greens perfect a little too fast for me tho’ good reception from high balls, stopped quick Visually stunning as you walk towards the green surrounded by high hump back bunkers You must stay out of the fairway bunkers as it costs you a shot Loved it 17 handicap

Without doubt the highlight of our trip! A truly amazing day in glorious sunshine! It also helped that I played my best round of the trip and finished with 35 pts and no lost balls!! The 2 caddies we had were excellent - friendly, knowledgeable and showed us the lines etc.. We couldn't have asked for better weather and although this is an Open course it is very fair and not too difficult. The fairways & greens were immaculate. We will return to Birkdale next year if we can! :-)

Loved everything

The best course and facilities in the area, caddies excellent and informative

All have their own character but especially the par 3s. 

Enjoy it.
