Celtic Manor Adventure Golf - The Celtic Challenge & Kingdom of Legends - Courses Played 256 and 257

On Saturday 16th July 2011 we headed to the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, Wales to play the two new Adventure Golf courses there.

The courses were played as part of the the 2011 Cystadleuaeth Minigolff Cymraeg (Welsh Minigolf Tournament), and became the 256th and 257th courses played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Both of the courses are 9-hole layouts, with the Celtic Challenge featuring Celtic-related obstacles, as the name would suggest. While the Kingdom of Legends course features scaled down versions of famous holes from BIG Golf.

One of the features of the Celtic Challenge course is the 'sail' yourself rafts that you have to use to navigate parts of the course. Great fun and a first on any minigolf course we've been to.

While we were there I also spotted a little Putting Green, I didn't get a chance to play it though.
