There are 2 golf courses, easy and hard, we did both. The easy one is OK, not a lot of room to move around and a family of 4 would struggle to fit in the playing spaces for each hole. The hard one has more room to move around and is much more fun to play although one or 2 sections are very hard and a little cheating came into play. Some parts of the decor on both courses are looking well worn, floor spaces damaged, marks and holes in some walls. Overall definitely needs some TLC but the staff are very helpful and greet you with a smile. Not sure we would pay another visit.

Was a great place to go after some food , definitely had a laugh and cocktails were nice to was about £30 for the two of us which I don’t thinks too bad , only thing I would say is it’s sometimes hard to hit the ball in the amount of space your given and apart from that I had an amazing time I played on number 2 the harder course and there’s always somewhere to put your drink if you choose to have one while playing ??

Echoing what others have said - Very small and cramped. Wouldn't recommend it if there's more than 2 of you. Very claustrophobic, poorly built, and poorly maintained, so some holes don't work very well/at all. Given how hard you need to hit the ball, and height of some things, kids would really struggle. Would suspect not many people visit more than once

The reviews don't give this place justice. Live a little and enjoy the courses for what they are intended to be, a little bit of fun. Shout out to the hosts

For full transparency, I booked through groupon, and for two people to play one round, it cost about £8. Which for what it was I felt was good value.It is small, I couldn't imagine doing the courses with a full group. The two of us went when it was very quiet, so we managed to get around the course with ease.The decor is too be expected. They have attempted to make it urban and eclectic. When we went, we were given the opportunity to collect our scores on mobile devices, and no pencil or paper was offered. I wonder if this is to deter people from writing on the walls.The drinks are pricey and personally I would avoid, especially if you are going elsewhere for food after.I would visit again to do the other course but only if in a small group and using a voucher.

A funny hour or so. Drinks are average but quite good value for money on the cocktails. My only cons are that it is quite dirty and hot, and has a slightly weird smell in the building, you do kind of leave feeling you want to cake yourself in hand sanitiser . But overall I'm glad we tried it, can't say I'd rush back but still fun.

I had an incredible 21st birthday! Elliot was absolutely fantastic and really made us feel welcome. Thank you so much to backyard golf for making my 21st birthday special!

Adam Davies

Barry Chamberlain

Shocking experience, very hot & cramped, no real room to play especially if more then 2 in a group! Bits of wood nailed to the floor does not equal mini golf course, very badly/cheaply designed not worth a quarter of the entrance fee. Save Ur money!

Sam Bitten

We went mid week so it wasn't busy. We had a great laugh, staff really helpful & happy. Both courses were fun to do, yes the space was limited but it didn't stop us enjoying it.

Friendly staff and the usual equipment for playing crazy golf (score cards and pencils smaller clubs for little ones etc). The courses were both tatty and poorly lit, with no space between holes. So it was easy to get stuck waiting for people to get out of the way before you could play the next hole. It honestly feels like there are too many holes squeezed into tiny spaces for the sake of making more money. All of holes were dirty, scrappy and with things missing or hanging off. The walls were covered with pencil graffiti from previous players (although maybe they like that as part of the aesthetic, and I've misunderstood). Overall a grubby, shabby environment but the staff were welcoming.
