How far down the railway do you think you need to go to get a reasonably priced room? I might go up for the weds/thurs, would happily jump back on a train to the Hotel, I certainly will not be paying £300+ for a room.

I don't know if Chester is the same (inflated prices), but if not you can get a train into Birkenhead from Chester, then another out to Hoylake. The whole journey should be about 45 mins.

Thanks, as I am coming up from London I thought about overnighting in Crewe, looks easy from there to Lime St and then out to Hoylake. Crewe travelodge looks reasonably priced

We have booked premier inn at £29 and that's 45 mins drive away. I am not paying over inflated prices for accommodation.

That's cheap for accommodation within 3 miles of the course !!

You could still get a few beers in Liverpool afterwards, which is good, I think trains run to Crewe reasonably late, maybe even after 10.

I stayed there in March when I played Hoylake, cost less than £40 a night, wonder how much they will be charging in Open week

We stayed there four nights last June and played a number of courses. Gave Hoylake a miss at around £180 green fee.
