IT is good that you are promoting the Hoylake Golf Resort consultations, but having just returned from Westbourne Hall and reading your article there are some points that must be made.

The golf resort may be a great idea for Hoylake, but it is based on farmland between Hoylake and West Kirby.

It is clearly not a Hoylake town centre revival.

The key fact not mentioned is that the council owns the majority of the land, that they are trying to sell.

The key to the sale will be the planning permission (granted by the council) to build the 150 “luxury” houses on the land.

While there may be a boost to Hoylake, resorts do not make money by encouraging customers to shop in Hoylake.

It would be most useful if the council could produce validated figures to back up their optimistic claims about the boost to the Hoylake economy, so we can all see this value.

As Phil Davies has now signed us up to the Liverpool city region surely the centre of the golf coast is Liverpool ... certainly not at the extreme south end of the region?

I wonder what Royal Lytham and St Annes think?
