I was back home at my parents house in Kent for some time over the Easter break. After munching lots of easter eggs my littlest sister Emily and I decided it would be fun to try out the new local crazy golf course.
Sparrows Den
Enchanted Village is situated in Sparrows Den, which is a big outdoor park area with rugby pitches and a cafe. The fields of Sparrows Den back onto some woods which are great to explore with the family dog Rolo. Sparrows Den is located only a short walk away from my parents house so was super quick and easy for us to get to.
A Spot of Golf
As well as having the newly opened Enchanted Village adventure golf course, Sparrows Den is home to a pitch n putt golf course. I played the pitch n putt course many times as a teenager with my school friends – I dont ever remember being very good though!
Emily and I collected our golf balls and clubs from the cafe’s kiosk and made our way round the course. The weather took a little turn for the worse and it rained lightly for the majority of our game. This didn’t dampen our spirits though or Emily’s skills with her getting a hole in one on the first and second hole! I should have known then I was doomed!
There were a few other groups on the course and we enjoyed chatting with a dad and his young son who were deep in a competitive game! It was so cute to watch them!
Winner Takes All
Unfortunately for me, after Emily’s amazing start to the game I couldn’t make a come back and she won! Beaten by my little sister – the cheek of it!
Despite loosing the game I had a good time. The course is fun and I like the enchanted, magical theme, especially all the toadstools. The 18 different holes are engaging and not too challenging. It’s suitable for whole family!
The owners of the golf course and cafe gave us 2 free passes for another game of golf as the weather had been so wet. They told us it would be more fun in the sun than in the rain and hoped we would return. I think this shows good customer service and means we will return again soon for a rematch – so watch out Em!!

This looks like so much fun! I wish we had it closer to here because my kids are almost to the age where they would have a blast doing it.
Yes I think kids love it, and big kids too!!

Haha thanks Jenna! At least it wasn’t by too much!
Looks like a cute place to spend some time. And so cool about the free passes.

A proper enchanted Village indeed 🙂 thanks for your comments
What a fun thing to do with your sister. And what a lovely place too! Golf is so fun because it gives you time to really chat while you get to try to kick their butt at something!
Yeah we enjoyed it! Haha I love that idea!!
I admit I have not been in decades, although, this reminds me I need to go again. I, too, like the Enchanted theme. You must be somewhere nice as you are without snow!
No snow in the UK currently! Yeah the theme added to it I think!
This looks like a perfect place to have fun. I love playing golf on a weekend. and I think I need to try this Enchanted Village place to play golf.
Yes go and try it and see if you like it here!

Thank you. It was a fun time – just hope the weather is better next time!
A place like this is awesome and it’s SO much fun for the whole family, not just for the kids. I love the whole place and how it’s designed! I definitely wouldn’t mind spending the day here playing golf.
Despite the weather it seems like a great day of fun and relaxation. Every time I go miniature golfing, I always seem to find laughter and connection with my company.
Aw, this day looks like too much fun! Looks like you made the most of the weather and had a great time anyways 🙂
I love golf places like that! They are so fun and adventurous. It’s a thrill to look at all of the different creative aspects for sure.
We’ve never tried mini golf or crazy golf. The Enchanted Village theme looks great fun and hopefully when I’m a bit older we can’t visit x
No way! It’s a fun thing to do for sure! Hope you get to have a game one day!
We love adventure golf and it always gets really competitive
Oh wow what fun! We also love adventure golf, it’s something me and my eldest love to do together!
It looks like a really fun place to play crazy golf. My daughters would love it here and I can see why it’s a great family activity
Fun for all the family – I think it’s good for all ages really!
What a fun way to spend the day–even in the rain–miniature golfing in a lovely location
Totally fun even though it rained!
