The Ricoh Women’s Open is coming to Royal Birkdale this summer, following in the footsteps of the British Open a few of years ago. For those who visited last year’s Women’s Open just along the road in Royal Lytham, you may already be familiar with the location. But for those who don’t, and those that maybe do but aren’t sure where to stay, here is a choice of hotels close by. All of these hotels are bookable over the internet using our suggested links. Best of all, by using that link you don’t have to shell out now. A credit card number reserves your request and with lots of the hotels you only pay on departure. Superb if you decide not to bother. First, there is the Premier Inn down at Ocean Plaza. Around its car park there are a few restaurants, catering for Oriental, Italian, American and more cuisines. 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 visiting the area. A short taxi ride will get you to Royal Birkdale or it isn’t too outlying from the local bus routes. If you are as thick as me, I’d walk it. But not advised unless you are fantastically fit! There is also a further Premier Inn on the road into Ormskirk, but it is further from the course and I wouldn’t advise this one for anyone depending on public transport. Driving to Royal Birkdale would be a necessity from here! An extra alternative for accommodation for the Ricoh Women’s Open when it returns to Birkdale is the Formby Hall Golf Resort. Once more out of the way a little, but just a short drive down the Coastal Road to the course. Plus, for genuine golf fans, the chance of a round or two themselves at the Formby Hall course. Getting back into Southport centre, another top preference for hotels must be the brand new Ramada Plaza Southport. Without difficulty walkable to the same eating venues as the initial Premier Inn and also very close to the main shopping district of Southport. This hotel is right next door to the newly refurbished Southport Theatre and Convention Centre and would have outstanding 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 trendy 4* hotel has a gym and a load to offer visitors to the area fixed on heading towards the Golf. Getting to Royal Birkdale to sample the Womens Open would be a effortless taxi ride, effectively just down the one road (impossible to get lost if driving yourself???). This hotel should be something of an experience if you are in the area!
