Minigolf in Newcastle


A look at minigolf courses in Newcastle upon Tyne.



We've been to Newcastle a number of times over the years and played minigolf at the city's various layouts.

Parklands Golf Club Mini Golf

Parklands Golf Club at Gosforth Park is home to an 18-hole Harris Miniature Golf course. We played there in 2009.

Lane7 Mini Golf

Lane7 in the city centre has a very nice 9-hole Mini Golf course. You can find the course next to the bowling lanes in the basement of the competitive socialising venue. We've played the course on both of our recent visits to Newcastle.

Mr Mulligan's Space Golf has three 9-hole courses - the Inventors Hangar, Lunar Crash and Cosmic Storm. We played them all on Miniature Golf Day in 2018.

Exhibition Park

There used to be a Crazy Golf course at Exhibition Park. Sadly that is long gone. There is a miniature railway there though.

Minigolfing in other Newcastles...

We've also played the miniature golf courses at The Clubhouse Stoke in Newcastle-under-Lyme and at Henllan Station on the Teifi Valley Railway in Newcastle Emlyn.

There's also an Adventure Golf course at Golf Centre Newcastle in Newcastle, Northern Ireland. We haven't played there yet.
