\n And it promises to keep the village\u2019s maritime story afloat while offering a new all-weather family attraction, alongside tasty food and drink.\n<\/p>\n

\n The couple decided to boost their business after setting up \u00a0their successful Silver\u2019s Shack food stall in Kilgetty, specialising in breakfasts, burgers, dirty fries and filled jacket potatoes.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe were looking to expand, and were thinking about one of the huts on Saundersfoot Harbour, but then we were told about the schooner, whose caf\u00e9 was empty,\u201d said Justin, 49.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cMy motto is \u2018no risk, no story\u2019, and so after we started doing food here, I came up with the idea of the indoor golf in the schooner\u2019s exhibition space \u2013 and with a maritime theme, of course.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cIt’s something fun for families to do and the only indoor crazy golf in Pembrokeshire.\n<\/p>\n
\n “And we won\u2019t be ripping people off \u2013 it\u2019s \u00a36.50 for a round of golf, and for \u00a312.50, children can play and have a drink with sausage and chips or chicken nuggets and chips afterwards, so it\u2019s great for kids\u2019 parties.”\n<\/p>\n

\n The three-masted replica schooner, named Free Spirit, is situated on the Saundersfoot harbour decking and last year was the centre of a rejected planning application by another person to house a gin bar.\n<\/p>\n
\n But planners were all on board when Justin came along with the mini-golf idea.\n<\/p>\n

\n And last Saturday, after speedy work by former bathroom fitter Justin and his carpenter pals, Laurence Marsh and Jason Bridges Captain Silver\u2019s mini-golf opened in time for half term,\n<\/p>\n
\n It will be open all this week between 11am and 7pm, then on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until Easter, and then seven days a week for the summer season.\n<\/p>\n
