Fairhaven Golf Club

Fairhaven is “a real hidden gem”, not only is it a beautiful place to play golf, but fully lives up to its designation as a ‘Championship’ course. Peace and tranquility are assured. Not a road or house can be seen from the course, despite it being only within two miles of both Lytham and St Annes town centres and hotels. Professional golf at Fairhaven started back in 1934, when the course played host to the ‘Penfold’ Tournament. The Club has hosted one of the ‘Open Championship’ Final Qualifying Competitions, when the ‘Open Championship’ is played at neighboring Royal Lytham and St Annes Golf Club, since 1952. The Professionals’ course record of 64 was achieved by Justin Leonard in 1996, while he was playing in and leading the final qualifying rounds.

Fairhaven Golf Club has all the characteristics of a traditional links course, including a sand sub-soil, allowing year-round golf, whilst being entirely surrounded by trees and open farm land. There is an abundance of wildlife, including various breeds of pheasant, which can be seen strutting around the course and depicted in the Club emblem. The course is particularly colourful in May and June time when the glorious rhododendrons on the course are in full bloom.
