Shrigley Hall Hotel, Golf & Country Club

This is a tired course that needs some TLC and investment.

Had considered this for our Captains trip this year but following our round, not any more!

Golf staff very friendly and attentive, hotel staff less so.

Obvious all the investment is in the Spa and hotel public areas but don’t forget you run a golf course.

An enjoyable but challenging course, almost no level ground on the course with several blind holes. Would recommend an electronic trolley or buggy as just walking the course is really a workout.

Lots of ground under repair with new paths being laid for buggies. Course quite water logged.

Greens really excellent.

The fact this place had 18 main greens at the time of the year and does stay open was impressive in itself although one of the down side to that is the course condition in general is very average and the greens are a little bit rough for the time of year due to this. would definitely like to play in the summer months when all the leaves are on the trees And the greens I imagine would be in better condition. The course layout was very good and had some interesting visuals and some shot shaping required The pace of play was pretty horrendous as a one ball, I went around in three hours fifty…. So overall a good round a competitive price but condition was average and the pace of play left a lot to the imagination.

I came up with 2 Friends from Shrewsbury on a freezing cold (1 degree) Sunday afternoon. The two guys working on the bar and in the pro shop were top lads and very helpful! Course was in great condition given the time of year and weather we’ve had all winter. Some nice smaller but tricky par 4’s, great course all round. Will be returning in the summer!

Decent condition for this time of year greens were a little worse for wear but ok for time of year.

Would advise buggy

Very hilly

Buggy’s not available due to course conditions

Check they let buggy’s out prior to booking

Course was wet after the storms but the greens were amazing for the time of year will visit again

Firstly, the course itself for December was immaculate. The greens were all in very good conditions as well as the fairways. Played this course before but never in the winter and was very impressed with the condition so big thumbs up for that.

However - the pace of play really let our experience down on Saturday unfortunately. After teeing off at 12pm as a 3 ball, we were confident we would get 18 holes in and beat the light (4pm sunset). However from the 4th tee box to the 15th tee box we were stuck behind a 4 ball who were all over the place and did not allow us to play through even when we were stood on every tee box waiting between 5-10mins to tee. After a phone call to the shop, I was told a message would appear on the groups buggy to warn them of slow play- this didn’t do anything and they continued with slow play.

We had to skip holes 15 & 16 to get ahead of them ultimately which was really disappointing as we really wanted to make sure we played the iconic 18th before we lost the day to darkness. The one thing which could have improved this experience was a marshal ensuring slow play avoided - our buggy was saying it was -30mins behind pace at one point.

Played 8th November. Blessed by great weather. Really challenging track with the ball played as it lies. Couple of really challenging holes and a couple of great signature holes! Big recommend!

Couldn’t expect better conditions for November. Course was very well presented and the greens were in excellent condition.

Having played the course before is a big advantage as the signage could be much better. Finding where the 7th green will present real difficulties for some first timers!

Great value for money but buggies are too expensive at £40.

Course is in a great condition especially considering the time of year. You can see the staff have took allot of time to keep it in this shape post summer. Brilliant round and look forward to going back.

Really nice and challenging course. My only negativity of this course is just the little things that relate to my own club.. On the tees there are no small boxes for broken tees and also some soil boxes for repairing the tee box. I did notice that the Next tee signs weren't very visible as it was my first time here. On leaving the course again at my club we have an air line to clean shoes trolleys etc. these are just small things that I think golfers like but don't let this put you off the course was in really good shape and the views and scenery were amazing, would definitely be going again but would advise getting a buggy if not feeling to energetic

Considering how wet it was - course was incredible!

Love the course pity about the weather conditions, great views of Manchester abd surrounding areas

Had a great time playing the course, we played as a 3 ball which turned into a 2 ball after 9 holes. We weren’t quite prepared for the elevations on the course and this proved a little too much for one of us. Would certainly go for a buggy next time but the walk was great. Course was a little wet after some bad weather and grass trimmings all over the fair way on some holes. Would recommend anyone to give the course a go only downside was after the 18 holes we got back to find the clubhouse bar was closed.

Nice layout that starts a bit plain but improves as the round goes on. Condition a bit scruffy but to be expected for the horrible weather we've had over winter. Greens were good. Off course, not much of a pro shop and bar but enough for the essentials.

Top quality course. £30 for winter fees on a weekend is a great deal. No buggies due to previous poor weather so can be a challenge getting around if you’re not too fit, but all in all a great course that was in really good condition for the time of year. Staff were lovely too, only shame was the clubhouse bar overlooking the 18th was shutting at 5pm on a Saturday.
