A lovely, intricate golf course which requires a lot of careful thought on almost every shot. A real treat and the perfect neighbour to the men's course.

The difference in the houses neatly sums up the difference between the main course and the Ladies; Lilliputian VS grandiose, yet both serve their purpose well at Formby. It should be no surprise I was very impressed with the Ladies. The course was in good nick given the torrential rain. Greens flooded and quickly drained when we continued the round. I was particularly impressed with the balance of hole movement in terms of doglegs and straight holes; it is just about perfect in not favouring any particular ball shape. While I wouldn't suggest the course change its name, the Ladies monicker likely holds back some men from having a go. This would be a mistake. If the spirit of the design is taken as intended, there is no reason why any golfer shouldn't have a grand time playing the Ladies.

Beautiful natural heathland course that demands accuracy to tame its tight fairways and tiny greens.

It is a quaint, very short course but extremely tricky. Beautifully presented and great fun, but doubtful it would be a challenge for a low handicapper.
