Crazy Golf at Southampton Outdoor Sports Centre

A visit to the Crazy Golf course at the Outdoor Sports Centre in Southampton.

Our road-trip to Southampton saw us visit 18 more courses. One of which we found during a drive round.

We'd spotted a brown sign for the Southampton Municipal Golf course and went to check it out. While looking on the map Emily noticed that the golf course was next to the Outdoor Sports Centre and wouldn't you know it but there was the outline of a miniature golf course.

Sure enough we found a minigolf course in the grounds of the sports centre and it was surprising to see it was of the mini-Eternit Miniature Golf variety - a smaller version of a minigolf type more commonly found in continental Europe.

We've only seen one course like it before, at Sutton Farm Cheshire at Sutton Weaver Village near Runcorn, Cheshire. That course is located at what was once a Golf Driving Range but is now part of the farm and is being used as a dog training centre!

The Crazy Golf course at the Southampton Outdoor Sports Centre was the 872nd course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Sadly we didn't have time to play it as we had to get to a wedding!
