An opportunity to stay in an exceptional and substantial residence in the heart of Birkdale, offering an unrivalled base for The Open Championship 2026. Positioned along the corner pf Westcliffe Road and Weld Road, the property sits just minutes’ drive from the world-renowned Royal Birkdale Golf Club, placing guests within easy reach of the action while retaining a sense of space and privacy.
Thoughtfully designed by a respected architect and newly finished to a high standard, the home balances refined comfort with generous proportions. A range of considered features—including a secondary preparation kitchen, gym, and music room make it particularly well suited to players, guests, or corporate groups. With accommodation for up to twelve guests, it represents one of the more substantial homes available in close proximity to the course and coastline.
The property offers six well-appointed bedrooms, comprising three king-size and three double rooms, supported by four bath/shower facilities, including two en suites. Four versatile reception spaces provide flexibility for both relaxation and entertaining, from a welcoming front-facing snug to a spacious lounge incorporating baby grand piano, alongside a large open-plan kitchen, living and dining space with bi-fold doors opening onto the rear garden. A further formal internal reception room adds to the sense of balance and scale.
At the rear of the home is a bright, south-facing kitchen and dining area, fully equipped for those who enjoy cooking with luxurious extras such as boiling hot water tap and wine fridges, complemented by a separate, well-appointed preparation kitchen. Additional practical features include a utility room, wine cellar access with ground floor WC, and ample storage throughout.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A side courtyard leads to a private gym with Peloton bike and an additional garden WC. The rear garden provides a generous and private setting, with landscaped lawn and decked seating areas ideal for outdoor dining or informal gatherings. To the front, a secure gated fob activated driveway offers extensive off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
The location is particularly well regarded, with direct access via Weld Road to the beach and nearby nature reserves, while Westcliffe and Grosvenor Roads lead directly towards Royal Birkdale and the championship atmosphere. Birkdale Village, with its selection of restaurants, bars, independent shops and railway links, is also within easy reach.
Available exclusively for The Open Championship 2026, this is a rare opportunity to secure a high-quality residence in one of Southport’s most sought-after settings. With demand expected to be strong, early enquiry is advised. Additional hospitality and catering services may be arranged by separate agreement.
