The Crazy World of Minigolf Tour - the story so far

Our crazy golfing adventures began at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea back in September 2006. Since then we've visited hundreds of weird, wonderful and wacky courses.

Playing hole 18 at Teezers Retro Golf in Coventry

On Easter Sunday Teezers Retro Golf course in Coventry became the 865th course we've visited in the last thirteen years. We've travelled to 38 courses in eleven countries so it was the 827th we've been to in the British Isles.

At the first course we visited over the long weekend - at Fletcher's Garden Centre in Eccleshall, Staffordshire

The 18-hole indoor Crazy Golf course at Teezers Retro Golf opened last year and was the 507th course we've played to date. 358 of the courses we've visited have been unplayable for one reason or another, including flooding and dereliction, or they were closed as it was out-of-season at the time of our visit.

When we began our quest there were 600 courses in the UK. We visited our 600th UK course at Goodrington Sands, Paignton, Devon in June 2015. There are now around 1,000 courses in the UK, with new courses opening all the time.

Over the long weekend we also played the Crazy Golf course at Fletcher's Garden Centre in Eccleshall, Stafford and the new Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course at Stonham Barns in Suffolk.

While visiting family in East Anglia we once again had a day out at Felixstowe - our most visited seaside. While there we also swung by two of the first courses we ever played, which are also the two most visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. The Magical Golf course at Mannings Amusements was originally the 5th played on our travels, while the Fantasia Adventure Golf course on the seafront was the 6th played on our tour.
