Course was in fantastic condition and the greens were some of the best I’ve played this year. The course was busy and I’m not surprised for this price and condition, but the pace of play was good, 3 1/4hr for a two ball. Can’t recommend enough!

This is the second time I have played Halifax, after playing it last year in poor weather conditions (mist and drizzle) but I still enjoyed it and wanted to return. Well yesterday I did return in 22deg bright sunshine and what an absolute joy, the greens were fantastic the fairways just about perfect, myself and playing partner virtually had the course to ourselves for our mid morning tee off and l really can’t understand why it’s so quiet, yes it’s difficult and you have to think your way round but that and the location/scenery is what makes it. (Oh and it was only 20 quid) I will definitely be returning and want to shout about the course from the hilltops, but also want to keep it quiet. Do yourself a favour and add it to your list of “must” play’s,you won’t be disappointed.

Played Grange Park yesterday for the first time, the two staff on duty on arrival were great and very friendly, pointed us in the direction of the practice green and even came out to tell us when we were the next group out. While I agree with some of the comments that the tee boxes weren’t brilliant the rest of the course was fantastic and the greens were very receptive and ran true, so the tees didn’t spoil any thing in my opinion, and to be fair I’ve played from a lot worse, and for a lot more money. I think the course has handled the bunker “situation” very well by just taking them out of play, on so many courses you are asked to take a free drop in the bunker and then “rake” it with your feet which makes most bunkers unplayable anyway! Would I recommend it? Without a doubt and for the price you really can not go wrong.

1st time playing Halifax GC, the weather was poor (mist and a pretty constant drizzle) and the fairways were very wet, the greens on the other hand were true and surprisingly fast. You really have to think your way around this course, you can use your driver but with caution, I’m not the longest hitter but even I ran out of fairway on a few of the holes. Some of the holes up top will offer stunning views (we couldn’t even see the wind turbines when we were up there) but fortunately we had a small respite when we arrived at the 17th! What a hole!
If I had any criticism, as a 1st time player, our group struggled a bit with where we were supposed to be going (no real signage) but because it was a poor day and the course was quiet we had time to figure it out. (maybe it was just us). This in no way would put me off returning back, but hopefully in better weather.A fine course and a definite challenge.
