Pleasington Golf Club

Lancashire, United Kingdom

Pleasington Golf Club is Lancashire's premier heathland course, located between Preston and Blackburn near the M65 motorway. Set within the rolling countryside of the Hoghton Tower estate, the course offers panoramic views towards the Pennines, Lakes, and Fylde coast. The 18-hole layout has recently undergone a comprehensive £1 million renovation covering tees, greens, and bunkers, resulting in recognition in Golf Monthly's Top 200 UK & Ireland Courses for 2023/24. The course presents a challenging heathland experience characteristic of the region's finest designs. Pleasington has earned distinction as a 12-time Open Championship Qualifying venue, reflecting its championship credentials and high-quality design standards. Its strategic location provides convenient access to three major Open Championship venues—Royal Birkdale, Royal Liverpool, and Royal Lytham—all approximately 40 minutes away. The club is situated within 60 minutes of Manchester, Liverpool, and Leeds, making it accessible to golfers across the North West. Beyond golf, the course is renowned for its signature steak royale dining experience, reflecting the estate's historical connection to King James I's visit in 1617.
