There are some great little mini golf and golf courses in and around Scarborough. If you want a game of crazy golf then you will find plenty on the north side of Scarborough.
If you want a full round of golf or you are looking for a driving range, then there are a few close on the outskirts of Scarborough. I took my five year old to the driving range recently and he loved it.
The crazy golf courses and putting greens are all based near the north side beach. If you walk around Scarborough near to Peasholm Park and the SeaLife Centre you will pass at least six courses.
Mini Golf in Scarborough
If you are going to visit the Scarborough North Bay for the day then have a walk around that area and you will pass a whole load of mini golf courses. You will pass pirate crazy golf courses, small and easy crazy golf courses, putting greens and pitch ‘n’ put courses.
The photo above shows the parameter of the Peasholm Park putting green. You get a stunning view across the lake at Peasholm Park while you have some fun on the putting green.
The kids will love a game of putting at Peasholm Park, just to the right of this shot is an ice cream kiosk, and as you can see there is a boating lake just in front of the green.
When you have finished your game of putting you can go for a walk round Peasholm Park and visit the Chinese Gardens. Just a short walk from Peasholm Park you will find the Victoria Park crazy golf course based on Peasholm Road.
There is a pitch ‘n’ putt golf course near to Peasholm Park that runs along Northstead Manor Drive near the Scarborough indoor pool. To play a round of pitch ‘n’ putt there it costs £3.50 per person with a £2 deposit.
If you walk round to the North Bay promenade from Peasholm Park you will pass a small and easier crazy golf course on your right hand side. This course will be more suited to smaller children.
As you walk down the North Bay promenade you will pass two pirate crazy golf courses. The first one is the adventure golf course, which is £2.50 per person to play. The second one is a pirate crazy golf course that is located next to the SeaLife Centre.
Scarborough Golf Clubs
The closest golf course to Scarborough that includes a driving range is at Snainton Golf Centre. I took my son there recently and it cost £3.80 for 75 balls at the driving range. They have a lovely little course there too; this is a great course to get the kids started on. The postcode for your satnav is YO13 9BE.
There are two golf courses based in Scarborough, there’s the North Cliff golf club (YO12 6PP), and the South Cliff golf club (YO11 2UE).
There is one other golf course close to Scarborough that I can recommend; this course is based in Hunmanby. This course is a nine-hole course around the grounds of HunmanHall (YO14 0HZ).
The HunmanHall golf course is a pay and play course and is great for beginners, it costs £11 for adults and £8 for kids under 15. You can take the children on their golf putting course for £1 a game.
Sealife Centre Pirate Adventure Mini Golf
Sealife Centre Scarborough on the North Bay is always well worth a visit. Half way round the Sealife Centre you can now enjoy a game of Pirate Mini Golf, this mini golf course is well thought out with some tricky holes, which need navigating, get your ball round cannons, treasure chests and gunpowder barrels. The children will love the pirate raft you jump on to get to one of the holes. Having a game here will really top off a great day out at the Sealife Centre.
Prices are £3 person with under 3’s free.
