Crazy Golf in Ardrossan, North Ayrshire

The seafront Crazy Golf course in Ardrossan, Scotland is being refurbished.


The Ardrossan Community Development Trust is undertaking work to develop the promenade in the seaside town. Part of the redevelopment will see the 18-hole Crazy Golf being refurbished.

We really enjoyed our holiday along the Scottish coast and really need to book a return visit on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Crazy Golf in Ardrossan, Scotland

Visiting Ardrossan and finding a Crazy Golf course on the seafront.

On our holiday to Scotland we booked our first night's stay in the seaside town of Ardrossan and what do you know but opposite the Lauriston Hotel was a Crazy Golf course!

Our BA flight was massively delayed arriving at Glasgow which meant we didn't get to check in until after midnight making the course visit in the early hours of the 25th July 2014 probably the latest we'd ever sniffed round a miniature golf course!

Unfortunately for us it was a derelict course, but during our time in Ardrossan we did see a few people playing the course with their own equipment.

The course was the 225th course we've found to be unplayable for one reason or another on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, and the 563rd visited overall since September 2006.

When we looked around the 18-hole layout you could see the spot where a hut for the Minigolf course once stood.

We really enjoyed our short stay in Ardrossan and would definitely revisit the seaside town. It was a nice, relaxing spot, with good links to Largs, Ayr and Glasgow where we also travelled to on our holiday.

Ardrossan swings

If playing on the swings was a Commonwealth Games sport I'd have a chance to win at least a Bronze medal I reckon.
