Championship Adventure Golf in New Brighton

Visiting Championship Adventure Golf in New Brighton

On Saturday 13th May (National Miniature Golf Day) we headed to New Brighton to play the two Championship Adventure Golf courses on King's Parade.

Championship Adventure Golf opened in 2014 and we've been looking forward to playing the courses since then. It was worth the wait. Both the Championship and Local Landmark layouts are superb miniature golf courses and in great condition.

The courses became the 730th and 731st visited and 430th and 431st played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

There's a nice little four-hole putting green to warm-up before hitting the full 18-holes

I really like the golf ball topped flag poles at the course

In our matches I defeated Emily 48-52 and 50-53.





The courses are not easy, but they do reward good putting skills. While you're unlikely to get a lot of holes-in-one, there is a nice incentive to do so, as you receive a badge to mark the achievement!

I managed to get one ace on each course, while Emily scored two perfect shots on the Landmark course.

We enjoyed our day out at the resort and we're looking forward to a return visit to the courses and New Brighton as a whole.



Head over to the Championship Adventure Golf website for more info, prices and opening times.

The new courses are certainly different to the old 18-hole Kings Parade Crazy Golf course that we had a look at on our only other visit to New Brighton back in 2011. The Adventure Golf courses at Kings Parade Gardens were built on the area once used for tennis courts. The old concrete Crazy Golf course sat to the left of the steps you took to reach the courts.
