DARK SECRETS: Nottinghamshire pub opens nine hole crazy golf course | Vintage Vibes

Pub-goers can buy a round of drinks - or they can play a round at a new crazy golf course in a beer garden. The new owners of the village pub in Brinsley hope it will be a roaring success after putting their own spin on what used to be the White Lion.

Renamed The Lion by Olivers, it has been given a £200,000 makeover inside and out and is believed to be the only pub in Nottinghamshire where visitors can have a go at getting a hole in one. Golfers are welcomed to the animal-themed course by Carlos, a wacky statue of a chimpanzee waiter, with an elephant, baboon, koala bear and lioness dotted around the holes.

At night, UV lighting turns it into a glow in the dark attraction. With picnic style benches next to the course parents can keep an eye on their kids at play - but it's not just for children. Adults are also encouraged to hire a club to play.
