With three incredible courses, there’s plenty of fun to be had this summer! Will you attempt the Bozo course, which will lead you through dark fairgrounds, twisted clowns and circus freaks? Or perhaps you’ll take a trip to the tropical jungle with the Pablo course? Or maybe their scrapyard challenge is more your style – can you successfully navigate through towers of tyres, written-off cars and auto-scrap to claim the Junkyard crown? Regardless of which course you choose, you can celebrate post-game with their amazing selection of drinks. You can book now via their website.
