Far Grange Park & Golf Club

Eighteen holes stretch across the East Yorkshire countryside here, offering golfers a proper challenge without the premium green fees you'd expect closer to York or Leeds. The course at Far Grange isn't going to make any 'best of' lists, but it's perfectly decent for a holiday round, with enough variety to keep things interesting.

Families staying at nearby parks like Skipsea Sands or Skirlington Leisure will find this handy for dad's morning escape or a family lesson. The layout suits mid-handicap players best - not too punishing for weekend warriors, but with enough bite to reward good shots. Water comes into play on several holes, and the Yorkshire wind can turn a straightforward approach into a proper test.

What sets Far Grange apart is the package deal thinking. This isn't just golf - there's fishing and spa facilities on site too, making it worth considering for groups with mixed interests. While the kids splash about at Skipsea Sands, parents can sneak off for nine holes before lunch.

Driffield lies just down the road for post-round pints and supplies. The course fits nicely into a Holderness coast holiday - close enough to the caravan parks around Hornsea and Bridlington to make it a realistic day trip option, but far enough inland to feel like a proper countryside escape from the seaside crowds.
