Mini Trek

Mini Trek sits just outside Warminster and is one of those places that stops you dead when you spot the sign. It's a miniature golf course - the kind where you whack a ball through windmills, over little bridges, and past all manner of daft obstacles that somehow feel brilliant when you're actually doing it. Don't expect anything fancy or Instagram-worthy. This is straightforward, affordable fun that works for families who've had enough of stately homes for one day.

The course itself is compact enough that you won't be trudging about for hours, which is decent if you've got young kids or if you simply can't face a proper walk after visiting Longleat Safari Park (just half a mile up the road). A round takes maybe forty-five minutes at a leisurely pace. It's the sort of place where the fun comes from the company rather than any grand views or elaborate design - there's a charm in that, honestly.

If you're based at Center Parcs Longleat Forest or the Treehouses glamping site, Mini Trek makes a solid rainy-day filler or a quick stop between bigger attractions. Admission is reasonable, though I'd ring ahead to check current opening hours before you trek out there - it's not the sort of place that's always staffed. Go early in the day if the weather looks dodgy; summer evenings can get busy with local families. It won't change your life, but it's honest fun for an hour.
