My brother Christopher and his family have just returned from a short break at the Haven Seashore Holiday Park in Caister-on-Sea, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. He sent me some snaps of the Crazy Golf course there.

Another Crazy World of Minigolf Tour milestone visit.


The Crazy Golf course at Haven's Seashore Caravan Park in Great Yarmouth became the 1,133rd course visited overall on our combined Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The visit to the course was also the landmark 50th course on Christopher's branch of the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, as we have made several visits and revisits to the same course. It's brilliant that he and his family have also travelled to a number of different places here in the UK, and overseas.

While the course has had some new obstacles added and fresh felt it is still easily recognisable as an Arnold Palmer Putting Course and appears to be in excellent condition.

Arnold Palmer Putting Courses

The Arnold Palmer branded miniature golf courses were part of the Arnold Palmer Enterprises empire set-up in 1961 that saw the legendary golfer's name licensed and franchised to a wide-range of activities and products including Dry Cleaning centres and an Arnold Palmer brand foot detergent.

The first Arnold Palmer Putting Course in the UK opened in Coventry in 1965 and was part of an Arnold Palmer Driving Range. A course was also located at a Driving Range in Sheffield.


Playing minigolf at Haven holiday parks


They've also played crazy golf at a few other Haven holiday parks over the year.

Hopefully we'll get to have a game on the course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour in the future.

Arnold Palmer Crazy Golf at Haven's Caister-on-Sea Holiday Park

The photos our friends Matt and Helen Dodd took of the Arnold Palmer Crazy Golf course at the Haven Golden Sands Caravan Holiday Park in Mablethorpe, Lincolnshire reminded us of this snap our friends Sophia and Karl Moles took while on holiday at Haven's Caister-on-Sea Holiday Park in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk a few years ago.

It's great to see there are still Arnold Palmer Putting Courses dotted around the coast. They're definitely a great part of minigolf history.

Check out Haven's web pages for the Caister-on-Sea Holiday Park for more photos of the Crazy Golf course. They've got an interesting paint job on the classic windmill obstacle.
