Building would also host children's play areas and a cafe

An application has been submitted to convert a warehouse off Douglas Promenade into an Isle of Man themed mini golf course, coffee shop and children's play areas.

The building, known as Litton House Warehouse on Queens Promenade, is behind the former L'Experience restaurant and has previously been used as stables, a warehouse and a carpenter's workshop.

The applicant, Gustav Modin, wants to open the ground floor as a cafe with kitchen a children's imaginative play area.

A second play area and quiet library are planned for the first floor, with an Isle of Man-themed mini golf course on the second floor.

The design statement notes that due to the uneven surfaces of the golf course, the second floor will not be accessible by wheelchair, however, disabled access will be provided on the ground floor.

Mr Modin says he wants to 'bring new life into a vacant warehouse while creating additional facilities for children, teenagers and adding a tourist attraction space as well as employment opportunities'.

If approved the business would be open from 9am to 9pm daily.
