Pleasure Beach Adventure Golf in Great Yarmouth

One of the first places we visited on what would become our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour was Great Yarmouth in Norfolk. We chose the seaside resort for a big minigolf trip in 2007 as we knew there were a lot of courses there.

Playing the Arnold Palmer Putting Course on Marine Parade in 2011. This course has been replaced by Castaway Island Adventure Golf - the latest course to occupy the minigolf hotspot since the 1920s!

We've returned a number of times since then, including a trip in May to help launch the Big Mini Golf Tour 2022.

Minigolf history in Great Yarmouth

One of the earliest miniature golf postcards we have in our collection is this one showing the Putting Green on Marine Parade in Great Yarmouth.

Putting Green, Great Yarmouth. Postcard postally used on the 11th November 1927

The postcard was sent to Hayes, Middlesex on the 11th November 1927.

You can see the Hippodrome in the left of the image and this building is still standing and is the Hippodrome Circus on St George's Road. If you visit now you'll find a row of buildings in front of the Hippodrome itself! You will also find that there is still a minigolf course on the same spot as the Putting Green. Now called Castaway Island Adventure Golf the site was an Arnold Palmer Putting Course that we played a number of times on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The Big Mini Golf Tour

Several miniature golf courses across the Greater Yarmouth Tourism & Business Improvement Area have come together to promote the game this summer as the Big Mini Golf Tour has teed-off across seven layouts.

Mini-Golf at Clippesby Hall in Great Yarmouth

A look at the Mini-Golf course at Clippesby Hall in Clippesby, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk.

I played a round on the 18-hole Mini-Golf course at Clippesby Hall in Clippesby, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk earlier this month. And what a pleasure it was.

The course has been at Clippesby Hall for a number of years and we did swing by it on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in 2011 when we were a bit too late for a game.

It was worth waiting all this time for a play of it though.

It's a brilliant 18-hole layout and a great test of putting skill. There are a few good rebound opportunities too.

A very nice setting for a game.

Check out the Clippesby Hall website for more information.

Crazy Golf at Pops Meadow in Gorleston-on-Sea

New Crazy Golf course at Pops Meadow in Gorleston-on-Sea.

There's a new Crazy Golf course at Pops Meadow in Gorleston-on-Sea, Norfolk.

The 18-hole layout is part of the fun park at Pops Meadow - check out the Pops Meadow Facebook Page for more information.

The former Crazy Golf course at Pop's Meadow in Gorleston-on-Sea was the 100th course we visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we swung by on the 10th May 2009.

Sadly that course closed a few years ago. But luckily Pops Meadow re-opened last year and there was a temporary Crazy Golf course there then too.

Pops Meadow Crazy Golf will be one of the courses participating in the Big Mini Golf Tour 2022.
