We've visited Margate in Kent a number of times over the years to play in BMGA Tour Minigolf events including the BMGA Players Championships, BMGA British Open and the Kent Open. These tournaments have all taken place at the 18-hole Strokes Adventure Golf course.
However, the town also has a 36-hole Arnold Palmer Crazy Golf course (2 x 18-hole courses) at the Cliftonville 'Little Oasis Crazy Golf'.
When we first visited on the 13th September 2007 the course was closed. But when we returned on the 15th it was open for a game! However, we only had time to play one of the two courses, and to date we've been unable to play the second course!

With a trip to Margate for the BMGA British Masters (at Strokes Adventure Golf) planned in 2011 maybe we'll get to play the course this time!

Course Played #36 Margate (Palm Bay Café) Cliftonville - Crazy Golf on Grass - Crazy World of Minigolf Tour
On the 14th September 2007 while travelling back to Margate from Broadstairs we spotted what appeared to be Crazy Golf obstacles on a Grass Putting area in Cliftonville, Margate, Kent.
And at the Palm Bay Café we did indeed find a quite unique Minigolf layout.

Crazy World of Minigolf Tour - Closed course in Cliftonville (Margate)
Following the British Open at the excellent Adventure Golf course at Strokes in Margate we headed to the Little Oasis Crazy Golf at Cliftonville hoping to grab a game on the second 18-hole Arnold Palmer course (having previously played the 18-hole course with obstacles including the Windmill back in September 2007 - when it was Minigolf course visit number 37).
The unplayed course wasn't Minigolf course visit number 74, nor was it number 79. And it still hasn't been open to be played and therefore is not Minigolf course visit number 153 on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
