The Golf Venue Croydon

The Golf Venue in Croydon has everything that a serious golfer could need perfect their swing. But it’s pièce de résistance is the Dragon Quest Adventure Golf. to Expect high-pitched company at this 18-hole course – it’s so child-friendly that club hire takes place at a gift shop full of plastic swords, axes and daggers-slash-bubble wands. Pathways are stamped with luminous green dragon footprints, one hole’s set in a massive castle turret, there’s a dragon’s tail jutting from the top of a replica waterfall, and there’s a giant trebuchet in the midst of the course (obvs). Be warned: one hole involves you sinking a ball while a speaker pipes a deafening squeal of serpent rage into your ear. Even St George would struggle with that one.
