One of Britain’s most recognisable hospitality landmarks, Formby Hall Golf Resort & Spa, is preparing for a major transformation. Under the stewardship of the Harland & Poston Group, the resort will undergo a multi-phase renovation designed to modernise its facilities and secure its position as a premier destination in the Northwest of England. The refurbishment opens doors for an exclusive investment programme, structured by the Group’s investment company, HP Invest, granting private investors the chance to participate in the rejuvenation of this iconic property.
The redevelopment plan includes:
The phased programme commenced in Q4 2025, featuring additional guest rooms, gym modernisation, and rolling F&B renovations, followed by the introduction of the wedding lodges in 2027. The hotel is expected to reach full stabilisation in 2028.
To support the expansion, HP Invest is offering three tailored investment options. With projected annual returns of 6%, 7.5% or 10%, investors could realise a five-year return on investment of 30%, 37.5% or 50%, with capital fully asset-backed.
David Poston, CEO of the Harland & Poston Group, commented:
“Formby Hall is a symbol of British hospitality and leisure. By opening this project to investors, we are combining heritage with opportunity, delivering a secure investment model while elevating an iconic resort for future generations. This renovation will not only enhance guest experiences but also contribute significantly to the local economy.”
Located within 200 acres of landscaped parkland near Liverpool, Formby Hall has long been favoured by sporting elites, celebrities, and international visitors. Its championship golf course, spa and dining spaces already provide a strong foundation. The upcoming works will ensure it meets the standards of modern hospitality while retaining the charm of a historic resort.
For HP Invest, this initiative reflects a broader commitment to developing landmark assets in the UK and Portugal, creating value for both investors and the communities in which it operates.
