Overview
The course has an excellent layout with 206 bunkers peppering the fairways and surrounding the greens. It is a challenging course that requires careful thinking and accuracy in order to score well.
Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club was founded in 1886 and the present course constructed in 1897. The Clubhouse celebrated its Centenary in 1998.

Over the next four years he re-positioned some of the greens and tees and added numerous bunkers and lengthened the course.
It is not a conventionally beautiful golf course, surrounded as it is by suburban housing and flanked by a railway line, but it has a charm all of its own. It is a Links Course that is a long way from the sea yet close enough for the sea breeze to have an effect on one’s game.
