Yesterday evening we visited the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester for a round on one of our local minigolf courses. Our friend and new minigolf rival Celine joined us for the round - and almost won!

In our match-up I took the win with a round of 42. Emily was second on 43, with Celine third on 48. Emily and Celine had both completed the front-9 with scores of 20, while I hit 22.

The team at the Trafford Golf Centre have plans to open a second 18-hole adventure golf course at the site. You can understand why when you see how busy and popular the course is, especially when the sun is out.

Dino Falls Adventure Golf was the 476th course played and 792nd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We were lucky enough to visit Blackpool twice in August last year and that meant we were able to revisit a number of miniature golf courses.

Unfortunately we didn't have time on either occasion to make the most of a full visit to the Blackpool Tower, so we're saving our visit to play the Dino Golf course there for another day.

There are plans for a further 18-holes at Dino Falls

The existing 18-hole dinosaur-themed course opened in November 2017 and has proved to be incredibly popular. The team at Trafford Golf Centre are now planning to add another 18-hole course to the venue.

Dino Falls Adventure Golf is one of our local courses and is just a short drive down the M60. It was the 476th course played and 792nd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Last April I competed in the first-ever DinoFalls Masters Adventure Golf competition at the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester - and won it!

I added the Dino Falls Masters title to my minigolf resume last season

I've now won four tournaments at the Trafford Golf Centre site. In addition to the DinoFalls Masters and the MMGC Invitational, I won the 2009 Mini Masters and Mini Open on the 9-hole Championship Miniature Golf course which used to be at the venue. That particular course was the 84th played on our tour. It closed in 2013.


We're looking forward to swinging by the new course at Dino Falls Adventure Golf when it opens.

Dino Falls Adventure Golf at the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester

A look at the new Dino Falls Adventure Golf course at the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester.


After an evening's shopping at the Trafford Centre we swung by the Trafford Golf Centre for a look at the new Dino Falls Adventure Golf course.

We're looking forward to having a round on the 18-hole course when the weather is a bit nicer than it was last night!

It's not the first time the Trafford Golf Centre has been home to a minigolf course. Back in the late noughties there was a 9-hole Championship Miniature Golf course on the site. A course I won two tournaments on in 2009 - the Mini Masters and Mini Open! The previous minigolf course there was the 84th we played. Dino Falls Adventure Golf became the 792nd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

New Adventure Golf course at Cardiff Golf Centre

There's a new dinosaur-themed Adventure Golf course opening at Cardiff Golf Centre.


We've got a new course to add to our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour 'to visit' list as there's a brand new Jurassic Adventure Golf course opening at Cardiff Golf Centre this week!

The 18-hole dinosaur-themed Adventure Golf course has been created by the team at HM Adventure Golf and will be open very soon. Visit the Cardiff Golf Centre and Tee-Rex Golf websites for more info, opening times and prices.

In April we played one of HM Adventure Golf's creations on a fun visit to Haigh Woodland Park in Wigan. I also had a round on their nice indoor layout in Bolton last December.

New dinosaur Adventure Golf course heading to the Trafford Golf Centre

New Adventure Golf course at the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester.


A jurassic adventure golf course is heading to the Trafford Golf Centre in Greater Manchester. The new 18-hole DinoFalls Adventure Golf course will be built at the golf facility which sits just off the M60.

It's not the first time the Trafford Golf Centre has been home to a minigolf course. Back in the late noughties there was a 9-hole Championship Miniature Golf course on the site. A course I won two tournaments on in 2009 - the Mini Masters and Mini Open!

We're looking forward to visiting and playing the new dinosaur adventure golf course at the Trafford Golf Centre as part of our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour to visit all the courses in the UK. It'll be very local to us! Since 2006 we've been to 752 courses. The previous minigolf course at the Trafford Golf Centre was the 84th we played.

As well as the new DinoFalls Adventure Golf course, Trafford is also home to the 36-hole indoor courses at Paradise Island Adventure Golf at the intu Trafford Centre and an 18-hole Crazy Golf course at Wythenshawe Park. In central Manchester you can play at Junkyard Golf, although this month the indoor Crazy Golf course is moving from its location in Piccadilly to a new home in the Northern Quarter.

There are also minigolf courses in Bolton and Wigan which are worth a visit.

Mr Mulligan's Dino Golf at Tonbridge Golf Centre

New Mr Mulligan's Adventure Golf course now open in Kent.


There's a new Adventure Golf course in Tonbridge, Kent as Mr Mulligan's Dino Golf is now open at Tonbridge Golf Centre.

The 18-hole Adventure Golf course looks very good and is certainly a lot different to the course I found there back in 2011.

Check out the Tonbridge Golf Centre and Mr Mulligan websites for more info, opening times and prices.

We've played Mr Mulligan's Adventure Golf courses in Castleford, Milton Keynes, Sidcup, Stevenage and Woking. We've yet to visit the Nottingham course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
