Hesketh Golf Club
A visitor pays about £175 to play Hesketh Golf Club. A member's guest pays £35, which is 80% less for the same round.
What you’re in for.
Founded in 1885, Hesketh is Southport's longest-established golf club, laid out among the Victorian villas of Churchtown with half its holes weaving through sand dunes.
The course borders the Ribble Estuary and an adjacent nature reserve, and regularly serves as a Regional Qualifying venue for The Open Championship.
THE COURSE
The 16th, a par 3 of around 187 yards, plays to a plateau green ringed by pot bunkers.
GETTING ON, AND THE RULES
GETTING A GAME AS A NON-MEMBER
- A booked visitor tee time, weekdays.
- As a member's guest.
AT THE CLUB
Play Hesketh as a member’s guest, for £35.
That is the club’s own member’s guest rate, up to 80% below the £175 visitor green fee. A member signs you in and plays the round with you. Hosted Rounds is the members’ network that finds you the member.
Playing Hesketh as a guest
How do I play Hesketh Golf Club as a guest?+
Hesketh Golf Club is a private members' club, so the surest way to play it is as a member's guest. Hosted Rounds is a UK members' network built for exactly that: join, connect with a Hesketh member, and they sign you in as their guest, usually at the club's own member's-guest rate rather than the full visitor fee.
How much is it to play Hesketh Golf Club with a member?+
Played as a member's guest at Hesketh, the rate is about £35 a round, versus the £175 visitor green fee. Your host signs you in and it is paid at the club on the day.
How much does membership at Hesketh Golf Club cost?+
Membership subscriptions at Hesketh are set annually and, as at most private members' clubs, are generally quoted on enquiry, so ask the club direct about current fees, joining fees and any waiting list. If the aim is to play Hesketh rather than join it, you do not need a membership at all: a member can sign you in as their guest for about £35, which is what Hosted Rounds arranges.
Can you play Hesketh Golf Club without being a member?+
Yes. Hesketh allows visitor play (weekend visitor play is available in summer and spring or autumn, but not on winter weekends). You can also play as a member's guest, signed in by a member at the club's guest rate.
Where is Hesketh Golf Club?+
Hesketh Golf Club is in Merseyside (PR9 9QQ), in the North West.
