GOLF OPEN 2026
Churcher Estates are proud to present this exceptional two-storey coastal retreat, offered exclusively for rental during The Open Championship 2026 at the world-renowned Royal Birkdale Golf Club. Perfectly positioned in the prestigious Hillside area of Southport, this beautifully refurbished home provides an ideal haven for golfers, families, and visitors seeking style, space, and coastal serenity just moments from championship fairways.
Set behind an attractive frontage with bay windows and manicured shrubs, the property welcomes you into a bright and inviting entrance hallway. Soft neutral décor, warm timber-style flooring, and a contemporary staircase create an immediate sense of calm, setting the tone for the refined accommodation beyond. From here, the hallway flows naturally into the heart of the home.
The kitchen has been finished to an exceptional standard, combining modern design with everyday practicality. High-gloss cabinetry, integrated appliances, and generous worktops complement the sleek aesthetic, while multiple windows bathe the room in natural light. A dedicated breakfast bar offers a perfect spot to start the day, with views across the garden. Thoughtful touches-such as elegant tableware, feature artwork, and a welcoming bottle of Prosecco-add a boutique feel synonymous with high-end holiday living.
Beyond the kitchen sits the stylish dining room, set within the light of a beautiful front bay window. The room is elegantly furnished with a modern dining suite and built-in lit display cabinets, creating the perfect space for relaxed evening meals or entertaining guests. The continuity of décor and the soft palette throughout ensure each room flows effortlessly into the next.
To the rear of the ground floor is the wonderfully spacious lounge-an inviting, comfortable setting complete with a king-size sofa bed, tasteful textiles, and a large TV for leisurely evenings. French doors lead directly out to the rear patio, allowing the room to be flooded with sunlight while seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor living. The view of the private garden beyond offers tranquillity and the perfect spot to unwind after a day at The Open.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two exceptionally presented bedrooms. The main bedroom offers a king-size bed dressed in soft blush tones, complemented by large windows with plantation shutters framing leafy residential views. The sense of space and serenity is ideal for guests seeking restful nights during tournament week. Leading directly from the main bedroom is a contemporary en-suite shower room, beautifully appointed with sleek tiling, a rainfall shower, inset shelving, and a stylish vanity.
The second bedroom is equally inviting, featuring two comfortable single beds dressed in fresh coastal tones, making it perfect for friends, visiting colleagues, or younger guests. The main bathroom on this level mirrors the same standard of luxury, with modern grey tiling, a spacious walk-in shower, and high-quality fixtures throughout.
Outside, the rear garden offers a wonderfully private retreat. A raised patio provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or evening drinks, while the lawned area and mature planting add colour and calm. It is the perfect environment to relax and recharge.
With Hillside Golf Club and Royal Birkdale Golf Club just a short walk away, and Hillside Train Station only moments from the doorstep, this property offers an unparalleled blend of convenience and comfort. Southport's award-winning coastline, vibrant restaurants, boutique shops, and charming Birkdale Village are all easily accessible, making this the perfect home base for The Open 2026.
Hillside Retreat is a rare opportunity-beautifully finished, perfectly located, and designed to provide an unforgettable stay for up to six guests during one of golf's most prestigious events. Early enquiries are strongly encouraged.
