Grange Park Golf Club

Played this a lot in 2021 and it was in great condition couldn’t fault it fairways were cut lovely tee boxes full of grass and greens were rolling smooth and fast , I don’t know what’s gone off since last year but the course condition has really degraded , shame because the course layout it’s self it’s great , with some love it can be great again hopefully when I give it another chance next summer it will have improved

This is my childhood course and I remember how challenging it is as a golf course. Definitely a thinkers course with enough trouble to make you play sensibly. As an adult, 25 years since I last played that stands.

But I also as an adult recognise its tired too, drive down to the course is littered with potholes and the greens look like they'd maybe been treated which made them challenging.

If you don't judge a course on its condition its a fantastic course, if you do you'll find issues everywhere. Be the first person.

Booked online which is only downfall as one of the four ball cried off so my round cost £40 instead of £20. But, that aside good course and for £20 great value.

Greeted by an exceptionally grumpy old man, shocking first impressions given we were customers. Practice facilities might aswell be non existent.

Course layout is excellent, some really good thinking holes, plenty of elevation to play with. Reachable par 5’s in 2 for relatively big hitters, some great long par 3’s and a cracking risk reward par 4 with a severe dog leg.

Pace of play was excellent for a Sunday but not surprising given the state of the course, very unkept, greens in poor state but majority of bunkers were good and filled with sand.

Can’t grumble too much given the price paid but £25 a round I would honestly expect better in truth.

We won’t be returning unless there is a significant improvement to the health of the course and it’s seems counterintuitive to be rude to visitors given the club so clearly desperately needs and injection of cash to improve the infrastructure.

-Let's start with the shop,

Not a lot of choice for anything, from drinks to equipment, shop manager did say it was getting updated are something along these lines.

I have to say he was very helpful and polite, my son need a golf and manager said that he had a few spare if he want to buy one from him which my son did, thank you.

-Course

Not the easiest course to navigate no signage directing you to the 1st tee.

No hole or very few signage at each hole with description.

Greens, looked in good condition despite the hot weather.

Bunkers most are just OK, a few were like concrete.

Fairways, occasionally nice with area rock hard, resent weather does not help.

Bar, never had a drink however, a number of golfers were drinking.

Overall course needs work in areas along with the shop, staff friendly and helpful, would go back in a few years to see any improvements.

Played this course a couple of times. Theaat time we played we were a little early for our tee off. There wasn't a single golfer around, asked if we could tee off early and was answered by "No, you've not given us any money if you've paid golf now"! We have never had this at any other courses if we're there early. He was rude and abrupt, no wonder there were only about 10 cars in the car park with this welcoming.

The course itself is in need of some tlc. Big holes holes in fairways, not sure if they were bunkers or being made into bunkers, but they were starting to grow weeds in them.

Layout not bad, some interesting holes.

It's a shame as this course could be a great club.

What a disappointing end to what used to be a great course to play.

Tee boxes where terrible all bunkers were GUR? apart from the greens which were average at best you wouldn’t recognise this as a golf course. It’s a shame how the club has declined, the club shop was empty not a glove or ball in sight, it’s obviously struggling to keep itself above water

It’s really sad

I went here thinking it was a well established golf course charging £25+. Some course signs were missing so couldn’t see the hole layout. The reception area for the course was run down and very unwelcoming.

The actual course condition wasn’t all that bad, greens were average/good the tees were fine fairways were well kept considering the heatwave there has been. Few puddles around the greens either where a leaking pipe is or just poor drainage. But for me just an average course, wouldn’t really recommend to a friend as being a good corse to go round.

Nice place, friendly staff greens and fairways in good nick, bunkers unplayable.

The coordinates for apps were all wrong. We couldn't get good yardages on any holes as I am suspecting the layout has changed but the GPS hasn't.

Chronic slow play. We were possibly playing a shot every 5-7 minutes from the 9th which isn't very good for rhythm.

7 minutes between each tee time. Once we (2ball) got to the 5th. There was a queue of 5x groups….one on the green, one on the fairway. One on the tee. One on the bench (us)And one waiting to come off the 4th

5hr 30 minute round. For us. A 2 ball. Ground was rock solid, tee boxes aren’t flat. The course could be so much better with some tlc and tee times spread further out. Shame. Wouldn’t book it again.

Grange Park GC is perfect to all players of diff abilities. The course is highly reccommended to all who want to play and exercise. It is a very nice course

A lovely course. Great greens. Challenging with stunning views. I'm going back

Yes there are positives - the course is challenging and has great views. However the course needs a lot of maintenance.

The tee boxes are rock hard for example and on a number of occasions we had to use both hands to try and get a tee into the ground. Also I don’t think one tee box is flat. Far from ideal.

The fairways had very little grass on them and were absolutely rock hard.

The rough (I know it’s meant to penalise) for a club course was ridiculously penal. As long as you would see at The Open meaning that any ball into it was lost even if not far offline

The facilities were closed at 8:50am. Doesn’t seem too early for a bit of breakfast or a cup of tea to me.

Overall pretty disappointing and I don’t think I’ll go back any time soon.

Haven't played this course in a few years and was pleasantly surprised in the condition it was in , they've really tried to get the course looking good again, good greens manicured fairways, a few tees could have been better but I'm sure they'll be working on them as well , played after 4pm so was only £13 , bargain, deffo go again
