Locating Some Appropriate Lodging For The Approaching Women’s British Golf Open In Southport
The Ricoh Women’s Open is held at Royal Birkdale this year, following in the footsteps of the British Open a couple of years ago. For those who came to last year’s Women’s Open just along the road in Royal Lytham, you might by now be familiar with the region. But for those who don’t, and those that perhaps do but aren’t certain where to stay, here is a selection of accommodation close at hand.
All of these hotels are bookable over the internet using our recommended links. Best of all, by using that link you don’t have to pay yet. A credit card number secures your booking and with many of the hotels you only pay on departure. Tremendous if you decide not to bother.
To begin with, there is the Premier Inn down at Ocean Plaza. In the region of its car park there are numerous restaurants, catering for Oriental, Italian, American and other tastes. There is also a cinema for the evenings and a big sports shop and gym. It is well worth a look at this hotel if you are heading towards the area. A short taxi ride will get you to Royal Birkdale or it isn’t too remote from the local bus routes. If you are as stupid as me, I’d walk it. But not advised unless you are fantastically fit!
There is also an alternative Premier Inn on the road into Ormskirk, but it is further from the course and I wouldn’t recommend this one for anyone depending on public transport. Driving to Royal Birkdale would be a must from here!
Another selection for accommodation for the Ricoh Women’s Open when it comes to Birkdale is the Formby Hall Golf Resort. Yet again out of the way a bit, but just a short drive down the Coastal Road to the course. Plus, for real golf fans, the chance of a round or two themselves at the Formby Hall course.
Getting back into Southport centre, an alternative top preference for hotels must be the brand new Ramada Plaza Southport. Easily walkable to the same eating venues as the opening Premier Inn and also very nearby to the core shopping area of Southport. This hotel is right next door to the newly refurbished Southport Theatre and Convention Centre and would have tremendous views over the Marine Lake and potentially even to Blackpool, if you face the sea.
If you are hunting for a truly upmarket hotel then look at Southport’s Vincent Hotel. Right in the centre of the town, this hotel occupies the spot of one of the town’s old cinemas, the last of the small cinemas to close in the town. This stylish 4* hotel has a gym and a lot to offer visitors to the area intent on visiting the Golf. Getting to Royal Birkdale to try out the Womens Open would be a undemanding taxi ride, in effect just down the one road (out of the question to get lost if driving yourself???). This hotel would be something of an experience if you are in the area!
