About the course

Set in 262 acres of glorious Cheshire countryside, Shrigley Hall boasts a true Championship course and is a real test of skill and stamina, whatever your handicap.

The 18-hole, par-71 course was designed by celebrated architect Donald Steel, who’s worked on every Open Championship venue in the country.

The course takes you through magnificent woodland and open parkland. Its toughest challenges are the 8th (par 3), with a meandering stream, ponds either side and a woodland backdrop, and the tricky 18th (par 5) with its sweeping dog-leg, bordering our superb fishing lake.
