King Charles to open crazy golf course at royal palace for summer – and it costs just £7 to play
KING Charles is having an 18-hole crazy golf course set up at Sandringham.
Royal fans will be able to play a round in parkland on his Norfolk estate from July 1 to September 15.
Visitors can book slots from 11am to 4pm, at £7 for adults and £5 for kids.
Courses traditionally feature obstacles like windmills, tunnels and castles.
It is not known if the King’s will add to the fun with a royal theme, or if Charles will have a go himself.
Royal fan Phil Morgan said today: “Golf is my cup of tee and I can’t wait to try the King’s course.
“It’s a stroke of luck His Majesty has made summer a swinging time for golf nuts like me.”
Sandringham’s 142 hectare Royal Parkland — which already includes an orienteering route and a newly-renovated children’s woodland play area — is open daily.
The latest attraction comes after Charles accepted patronage of the oldest golf club in the world — The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews.
The patronage has been accepted by reigning monarchs since King William IV in 1834.
The late Queen was patron for 70 years.
The world-renowned club, which said it was “honoured and humbled” by the King’s support, was established in 1754.
