\n Plans include creating larger putting areas, new holes, water features, improved planting and reconfigured pathways.\n<\/p>\n
\n Mr and Mrs Abbott aim to reopen the course before the Easter school holiday to welcome back regular visitors and attract a new generation of mini-golf fans.\n<\/p>\n
\n She said: “We want to create a fresh, modern experience.\n<\/p>\n
\n “The new course will embrace a natural, green design that complements the beautiful surroundings of Eaton Park.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The pair plans to introduce a range of opening offers and special promotions, alongside targeted initiatives for local schools, families and community groups when the site relaunches.\n<\/p>\n
\n “This will help make the attraction accessible and affordable for everyone,” Mrs Abbott said.\n<\/p>\n
\n “The investment represents a significant commitment to Eaton Park and to creating a fun, welcoming attraction that the people of Norwich can enjoy for many years to come,” she added.\n<\/p>\n

\n Eaton Park Crazy Golf Ltd applied to Norwich City Council to upgrade the “poor quality” facility in April.\n<\/p>\n
\n The authority approved the proposals in September, stating the public benefits of the upgraded facility would outweigh any identified harm.\n<\/p>\n
\n They explained the improved course is expected to contribute to the vibrancy and character of the park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Putt Fantastic, specialist designers who have built golf courses in Colchester, Acton, Battersea and Gunnersbury Park, have broken…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":806677,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[5904,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-806676","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/806676","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=806676"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/806676\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/806677"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=806676"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=806676"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=806676"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
