Golf:
At the heart of England's Golf Coast & under 5 miles from Blackpool, there are 4 superb courses in Lancashire, located around Lytham and St Annes just 20 mins drive from Mulberry Cottage. Seaside links courses where the irresistible forces of sea, sand & nature combine to provide a challenge, second to none for dedicated golfers at all skills levels. Follow in the triumphant footsteps of golfing greats like Jack Nicklaus, Seve Ballesteros & Tiger Woods at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Course, regular home to the legendary Open Championship, where the world's best golfers do battle along its hallowed fairways, for the supreme award in British Golf. Since 1901, St Annes Old Links Golf Course has offered the purest of links experiences. Its fairways nestled between dunes & subject to the unpredictable coastal weather offer a demanding course as traditional & historic as they come. 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 & open farm land. It is not only a beautiful place to play golf but it lives up fully to its designation as a 'Championship' course. Lytham Green Drive Golf Club is a flat, parkland course with tree-lined fairways & good greens. It has hosted Open Championship qualifying rounds & is regarded as one of the best courses on the Fylde Coast. If all that wasn't enough just behind the cottage is the local course!!
