Oxford Road Corridor

Overpriced, very underwhelming and not great value for money. It was not fun or enjoyable. Paid £33…read morefor two adults and child. This only allows you to play on one of the 3 courses. It took us 14 minutes to complete the Bozo course. £33 for 14 minutes is awful value for money! It's crammed in the corner of the top floor. The majority of holes are short and not very exciting. Because it's crammed and small some of the holes are very difficult for right handed players, because the holes are too close to the walls. The worst experience we've had at crazy / mini golf. I would not recommend this place at all and there are loads of alternative places with much better courses and better value for money.

What's the worst thing about playing golf? Well, that's an easy one...the weather! What's the…read moresecond worst thing about playing golf? Another easy one....it just takes too long! Well, Junkyard Golf Club may have just come up with the perfect solution. They say that the best business deals are negotiated on the links, with that in mind after a long day of meetings we decided to unwind on the golf course, the crazy golf course of course. We visited around 5:30pm on a Tuesday and it was quite empty, we were probably one of two groups in. We immediately headed for the club house, by that I mean bar. I noticed they served a whole range of bottled beers from premium to craft - we went for the Kozel on draft, only 4% and £4.50 at Junkyard. This was the perfect on course refreshment. After the bar we headed towards the course, it's actually quite amazing that you can squeeze so many holes in to such a small space. We payed course one (yep, there's two nine hole courses). Most of the holes are challenging without being impossible. Before starting they make you sign a quick waiver. We were lucky as we were the only two playing our course but I can imagine at peak times it could get quite cramped. All the holes are themed, the first was Steven Seagull for example. It took us around 30 minutes to get through the nine holes. I for one really enjoyed it - was a great activity. Unfortunately I lost by four shots but I'd be pretty sure I'd have made the cut if it was a tournament. All in all an excellent addition - something that Belfast could do with. Highly recommended!

This 2 star rating is a real shame but I feel short changed after coming here…read more The entrance looks so exciting and brilliant and it looks like you have the course to yourselves. How wrong could we be! You end queing endlessly for holes, which aren't particularly hard or exciting. Its less adventure course and more boring course than anything. We didn't come with a voucher, after finding one afterwards which annoyed me as I forked out £16 to play some boring golf and queue. Make the course harder/bigger/ more interesting and less queuing please! Unfortunately wouldn't come here again:(

This is actually really good fun…read more Recently opened in The Trafford Centre, Paradise Island is an indoor crazy golf centre! Featuring two different courses, this is a fun place to take the kids but also good fun for a staff night out as we found out when we wandered along to it for a fun evening! It's not dead expensive (£7 per adult, £5 per child) and you get a discount if you're in a group. The courses are set out really well, some of the holes are quite challenging and it can get quite embarrassing when you're on your 15th shot and there's a queue of six other groups behind you...was that just me?! Oh right...! The novelty theme is very well played out throughout the entire place and the decor is fantastic. It's the sort of place you can kinda of go to with anyone, dads would love it, kids love it, it's a good place to go for a date (no really it is!) and we had a right laugh when I went with work! It's funny to see how competitive men get whilst playing...hehehe!

The park and the buildings are very beautiful. They really turn back the time…read more The botanical gardens are open now and are very nice but not very big. There are several fairs are held in the Pavilion Gardens such as the Fine Food Fairs, Farmers' Markets, Art & Craft Fairs, Antique Fairs, etc. Also the tourism information center is there.

As the website and the entrance signs say - Pavilion Gardens is a 'great free family day out.'…read more This historic park is situated in the centre of Buxton and is constantly full of locals walking dogs or taking their children out to play as well as a variety of tourists, from families on a day out, cyclists taking a short break to photographers and artists wanting to capture a slice of nature. There is a pay and display car park at one side of the gardens, however as it is centrally located you can easily walk to it from most hotels and the town centre. For tourists new to the area, there is a Tourist Information Centre which will provide you with lots of information about Buxton and the surrounding Peak District area. Hundred of events are held within the gardens over the year, mainly located in the Octagon Hall. These included farmers markets and fetes etc. during my visit a few weekends ago there was an Art based festival taking place where clothing, photographs, jewellery, furniture and other art works were being displayed and some offered for sale. For those searching for a little more fun suitable for the younger generations, there is a large park fully equipped with swings and slides as well as a miniature train which offers rides around one section of the park. If you're wanting to stop for a short refreshment break there are plenty of places to pick from, including outside and inside cafes serving both hot and cold food as well as ice creams. On my next trip to Buxton I will definitely be heading back here as there was plenty of things I didn't get to see.
