Step onto our almost lush green lawn and prepare for a game that blends the sophistication of traditional croquet with the strategic elements of golf. Golf Croquet is a delightful pastime that appeals to players of all ages and skill levels.

Played on a flat lawn with nine hoops and two pegs, Golf Croquet involves hitting wooden or plastic balls through the hoops using a mallet. The objective is to score points by completing the course before your opponent.

Unlike traditional croquet, Golf Croquet allows players to strategically block their opponents’ shots and play defensively, adding an extra layer of excitement to the game.

Whether you’re a seasoned player or a newcomer to the sport, Golf Croquet offers hours of fun and camaraderie in a relaxed outdoor setting. Gather your friends and family and experience the joy of Golf Croquet firsthand at Ha’Penny on Sunday April 14th at 4:00pm! After working up an appetite on the lawn, indulge in a delectable buffet featuring mouthwatering delights. Make your reservation now.
