It's a lot more tropical inside Treetop Adventure Golf than outside! |
We had a walk round Bruntwood Park in Cheadle on New Year's Day and while there took a look at the Pitch & Putt course.

Visit the Bruntwood Park Pitch & Putt website for more information.
The Bruntwood Park Pitch & Putt course was the first place saw social distancing measures in place in person. That was in May last year.
The last course we swung by in 2020 was the grass Putting course at Park Square in Cheadle Heath on the 29th December.
Before the first national lockdown hit and our out-of-home putting was paused we'd visited 948 courses since September 2006.
We had a very strong start to the year and visited 20 courses in the first 20 days of 2020.
We've now been to a total of 956 courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Snow play allowed. This was back in January 2010 |
When we lived down in Luton, Bedfordshire our local park had two miniature golf courses. One was a 9-hole grass Mini Golf layout, the other was a 9-hole fibreglass Crazy Golf course.
That's hole 1 of the Crazy Golf course under the snow |
The grass course at Wardown Park opened in 1934 and was an interesting one to play. It was too big to be considered to be a Putting Green, but not large enough to be classed as a Pitch & Putt, even though you were issued with an iron and a putter when you played.
You also received a paper ticket every time you played a round on the courses. A really nice touch and something we've rarely seen elsewhere on our travels |
Sadly both courses are now long gone. Luckily we played a lot of games there in the latter half of the noughties.
The area where the two courses were was turned into a mini meadow in 2015.
