Summer Solstice 2027
Nest Member Trip
June 20–25, 2027
Southport, England
Spend the longest day of the year playing 45 holes with a group of like-minded golfers.
We’re celebrating the 2027 Summer Solstice with 45 holes across Old Southport Links, Formby, and Formby Ladies. Then take it down a notch and spend the rest of the trip exploring Open Rota Royals and beloved members’ clubs nearby.
You’ll be following in the footsteps of NLU’s 2026 trip to Liverpool with a group of fellow Nest members.
Go deep on Northwest England.
And see some of the best golf on the planet.
Itinerary
Sunday, June 20, 2027: Golfers arriving at MAN Airport will be transferred to Southport to check in at the Bold Hotel and enjoy a group welcome dinner. This is your chance to carbo load for a big day ahead.
Monday, June 21, 2027: Spend the Summer Solstice golfing from sun-up to sundown. We’ll start with 9 holes at Old Southport Links, spend midday at Formby Golf Club, and finish it off at Formby Ladies with bacon rolls and sandwiches between rounds.
Tuesday, June 22, 2027: The site of 13 Open Championships, including most recently in 2023, Royal Liverpool is often the favorite ‘royal’ in the region among purists.
Wednesday, June 23, 2027: Featuring some of the wildest and most dramatic dunes golf in the region, Hillside is a proper test—hence its history as a host site of the British Masters, English Open, Amateur Championship, and Open Championship qualifying.
Thursday, June 24, 2027: Last but not least is a round at Southport & Ainsdale—a ‘golfer’s golf course’ with a rich Ryder Cup history.
Friday, June 25, 2027: Transfers will be available for return trips to MAN Airport.
