Putt In The Park Mini Golf

We played Putt In The Park Mini Golf at Battersea Park in London five years ago today.

The course was the 650th we visited in the UK and 671st overall.

We've now been to 956 courses since 2006.

The first Putt In The Park course we played was in Wandsworth Park, London in 2013.

We're yet to play Putt In The Park in Acton Park, London and Colchester, Essex.

On Monday 21st September* we made the 671st visit on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and played the 389th course since we began our Tour in September 2006. The location was London's newest course - Putt In The Park at Battersea Park.

The 12-hole venue opened earlier this summer and is the second course from the team behind the Wandsworth Park Minigolf course.

Quite autumnal

In our match-up Emily defeated me by one shot - 36 to 37. I was incredibly fortunate that Emily was unlucky on the last hole or the margin of my defeat would've been much much worse!

The Battersea Park course is three miles from its sister course at Wandsworth Park. That Putt In The Park venue was the 323rd played on our Tour.

When we began traveling around and playing minigolf there were an estimated 600 courses in the UK. This year we visited our 600th overall and 600th in the UK - at Swanage and Goodrington Sands respectively. On our road-trip around the South West of England we also visited the 650th course in the UK - in Padstow.

Having visited 21 miniature golf courses overseas means that the Putt In The Park course in Battersea became the landmark 650th we've visited in the UK.

* It was apt that such a BIG minigolf course visit would take place on the 21st September as the date is always Miniature Golf Day!

I've heard that the team behind the Putt in the Park minigolf course in Wandsworth are opening a new miniature golf site in Battersea Park, London this summer.

The 12-hole mini-golf course is due to open in June and will be located in the former One O'Clock Club in Battersea Park.

As well as the putting course the new Putt in the Park site will include a café, pizzeria and bar.

Check out the Putt in the Park website for details, plans and initial photos of the new site.

We've played the original Putt in the Park course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and recently returned for a round with Pat Sheridan from The Putting Penguin website.

We look forward to visiting and playing the newest course in the capital.

Watch Pat Sheridan from The Putting Penguin website play hole 7 of the Putt in the Park course at Wandsworth Park.

 

Until recently there has been a bit of a dearth of permanent mini golf, crazy golf and adventure golf courses in London, so it's great to see a new layout opening up.
