We had a teen birthday here with golf driving range, mini golf and snacks. Really great for parties, very relaxed vibe with super friendly and helpful staff, great service.

I visited this golf club for the first time with a mate as a casual player. I played nine holes, and it felt like a good size and beginner-friendly course. L They also offer plenty of other activities, like paintball. I’d definitely go back in the future to try more of what they have.
