However, that can make it a little trickier to get to, and bear in mind any taxi rides if you are tempted by the decent value green fees. I often use a course in Balham which is more easily accessible, but the quality of this course means i will probably be back again. There is also a small food/drinks area which serves an essential cold beer from the tap : )

Even though I really enjoy this public golf course the fact that I had to wait at least 30 minutes for each tee is a downside I just can't deal with. As Derek said it is rather impossible to find your game rhythm when each round exceeds 5 hours.

Great place to go and hit some balls with some friends. Very cheap prices. Paid £5 for 50 Balls in…read moreReading last week. Its £1 for around about the same amount of balls. Never going to be too busy, so not going to be distracted. Also has a coach who will come down and go through your swing and you sometimes see him get out the camera for some video analysis. It is essentially a converted piece of farm land. Car park right outside and easy to get to. Worth a visit.

This is a fun, novelty place, which I visited to get out of the house over the Christmas period. At…read morea time of the year when social lives revolve around festive drinks and parties, it's good to get off your bum and do something active. Well, ok, you're hitting a ball at a screen so not walking too far, but at least you're standing up and moving your arms... However, it's not easy. I've not played golf much and this activity requires some level of technique above 'aim and hit'. For a start, you have real clubs so you have to know what the benefit of each number is. Secondly, if you're not very good like me, then your ball will either go into a lake, a sandpit or nothing at all and you will get more shots. This means the embarrassment lasts longer as you take more and more shots to achieve the same distance that your better playing friend hit in one. I also liked the central location as it's inside High Street Kensington Tube station. There's a full bar inside so you can drink while you play, hoping it might relax you into being a better player. Low marks come from the fact that it's more expensive than bowling (£50 per simulator per hour at weekends). For that price, I'd rather bowl as you can get away with throwing hard and a bit of luck, whereas Urban Golf is more technical.

The interface of the simulator is confusing at first but when you realise how it works is easy. Before that I don't even know "the rules" or how to hit the ball properly (well, I still don't know), it was my very first time playing golf (realistic golf, I mean) and it was way too hard, so I think it should be a really good simulator.

A lovely little park in the South West suburbs, close to Southfields and Wimbledon Park tube…read morestationand not so far away or as big as Wimbledon Common for the residents of Earlsfield and Wandsworth. A flat park, with lush green fields, perfect for ball games, flying model airplanes, picnics in summer etc There is a large lake with many ducks who just love to be fed your scraps of bread! Great for the kids There are several intersecting paths for leisurely afternoon strolls, a football club, tennis club, and even a clubhouse cafe for a lazy afternoon of tea and cake. The thing I like about this park is that it isn't really big enough to get lost in, and you can see where you are (for bearings) at all times, because it's flat, unlike Wimbledon Common. Just make sure you don't go off track and end up on the adjoining golf course! There is no way out once you find yourself in and the golf club members don't take too kindly to 'Sunday walkers' getting in!

Golf clubs are notoriously up themselves, expensive, and busy. This is certainly not a course for…read morebeginners as it is enormous with 375 yard lay-outs on average. Add in some difficult shots over ditches, sand pits, and small ravines and you have a serious course. However, we had the *best* time getting our balls in 12-13 shots among the 1-2-shot pros... The staff here are amazingly helpful and friendly. We called an hour or so before we wanted a slot and the woman at the front desk instantly set us up with a tee-off time even though they were pretty busy and it was last minute. She said people normally let them know well in advance of renting golf clubs as well, but she was incredibly accommodating. Our whole 3.5 hour experience here cost around 20 quid each, including renting half set of golf clubs each. An amazing deal for a golf course with really experienced members. Literally, Tiger Woods has nothing on a couple people we saw. Incredible. Several groups asked very politely to skip ahead of us which was fine as they all did it in like a shot and it took a few minutes wait. I know we slowed some people down but Cheshunt is very good with beginners and the members seem patient, all things considered. I bet they just wanted to finish up and head to the bar...yes, there is a bar. The bar does not have a large selection but it does large portions of chips and cold beer which we treated ourselves to after. Your hands will be slightly bruised from the club, your shoulders will hurt from carrying the bag, and you will be in awe of how much better everyone is but it will be so worth it! I will be coming back!

The food on offer is excellent but can be a little hit and miss depending on what is ordered. Drinks at the bar are fair prices and the cutlery is always clean, although it is a help yourself area which means you risk other people having touched it before you.. A large array of condiments are available and pick your own from the sachets near the cutlery Overall good value for money and ok for a quick snack. Also has a great outdoor area which looks out onto the golf course, and they allow dogs as long as you go around the back of the building to the outdoor seating area and not through the club. At doors go to the left and it will take you all the way around to the back of the clubhouse
