Prior to our visit we knew the course would not be open and playable as I've been in contact with the new owners of the course who have plans to refurbish and reopen the course in the 2012.
We did have a wander around and had a look at the existing course.
To be honest, on our travels to the 436 Miniature Golf courses prior to visiting Eaglescliffe we have found some really Crazy Golf horror courses, many of which we've actually paid to play, so on seeing the condition of the Preston Hall Park course we didn't think it was that bad and obviously would have given it a play had it been open.
The borders of the course are solid and holes, such as the first (below), reminded me of Beton and Eternit type courses with wall shots needed.
The felt was worn in places and some holes had had patches replaced.
Leaf fall was a bit of a problem too!
We're looking forward to a return visit when the Crazy Golf course has been refurbed and we'll be having a look around the Museum there too, as it was also closed for a refurb on our visit.

Not a bad course (not the worst!), shame about the felt and the leaves... hopefully will get to play it next year.
