The Blackpool North Shore Golf Club is one of the UK’s most historic links that provides a challenging 18 holes with rolling terrain and unexpected sand traps. When you step onto the course, you’ll be hitting drives on the same fairways as did golf greats Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus.
The sprawling fairways and finely manicured greens look relatively tame from an elevated perspective, but when you step onto the course and see the gorgeous English countryside, you know you are in for an iconic game. Before and after, you can grab a drink and a bite to eat in the historic 3-storey clubhouse.

Blackpool North Shore Golf Club highlights
One of the most appealing aspects of playing at Blackpool North Shore Golf Club is the historic nature of the course. Whether you only play once or you visit every weekend, you can still appreciate the significance each time.
From the white tees, you are faced with over 6,000 yards across a par-71 course that sees long drives and relatively fast greens, so you'll find a good balance of difficulty along with immense enjoyment. Because the course is so close to the beautiful coast, you’ll also face a variety of challenging seaside breezes.
