Day 3 - Royal Cinque Ports

On day 3, you will travel to Deal, where the famous Deal Castle was constructed by order of Henry VIII in 1539. Royal Cinque Ports is an exceptionally tough links course, particularly the back nine, where the final seven holes heavily punish inaccurate shots. Often played directly into the strong coastal wind, the course has a classic out-and-back routing, very similar to the old course at St Andrews, but much narrower and more punishing. Following an exceptional round of golf, the inviting clubhouse provides a perfect setting to relax and unwind, complete with two fully stocked bars, two lounges, and a sophisticated dining area.

Day 8 - Royal Liverpool Golf Club

Royal Liverpool Golf Club is a beautiful and historic links course that holds an important place in English golfing heritage, as it's the second oldest links course in England. First established in 1869 as a 9-hole course, it shared the links land with a horse race track, with the 1st and 18th holes named “course” and “stand” in honour of the racing history. Measuring at 7350 yards from the tips, the Royal Liverpool Golf Club is widely recognised as a stunning links golf course, but constant winds and deep summer rough create a substantial challenge. Royal Liverpool Golf Club has hosted the Open Championship 13 times, with Tiger Woods winning in 2006 and Rory McIlroy in 2014. After completing your round and walking in the footsteps of some of the greatest golfers ever to live, head to the clubhouse bar and enjoy a well-earned refreshment.

Day 9 - Royal Birkdale

Royal Birkdale has ranked amongst the top 10 courses in England for almost two decades and has hosted two Ryder Cups and eleven Open Championships. Deep pot bunkers, difficult greens and thick rough punish inaccurate shots, making good course management essential throughout the round. The constant presence of wind adds to the challenge, meaning that measuring over 7,100 yards from the tips, the course can feel a lot longer. As you step away from the 18th green, take a moment to savour the achievement of completing one of England's most prestigious and demanding golfing tests.

Day 10 - Formby Golf Club
