Street Golf Felixstowe at Manning's Amusements

The new Street Golf course at Manning's Amusements in Felixstowe, Suffolk is opening soon.

Street Golf Felixstowe is opening at Manning's Amusements in the seaside town and it is hoped to be completed and open this month.

We were in Felixstowe last month and swung by Manning's Amusements and Beach Street. The old entrance to the indoor course had been sealed off, with a new entrance to the course created at the rear of the building

Street Golf Felixstowe.

Felixstowe will be home to two new 9-hole indoor Crazy Golf courses as Street Golf Felixstowe opens inside Manning's Amusements at Beach Street in the Suffolk seaside town.

Construction work is underway at the site of the former Magical Golf FX course.

We're looking forward to checking out the new Street Golf layouts when they open.

Playing minigolf at Manning's Amusements.

We've played minigolf at Manning's Amusements in Felixstowe a lot over the years. The first time we played there was back on the 19th November 2006 when it became the fifth course we ever visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. It was also the first indoor minigolf course we played.

Back then it was one of only two indoor minigolf courses in the whole of the UK!

We've now been to 1,083 courses (1,022 in the British Isles) and there are a lot more indoor minigolf venues than there were in the mid-noughties.

The Golf FX course at Manning's Amusements was a brilliant layout, with lots of optical illusions and practical effects. It was a unique course and ahead of its time with its sound and light effects. 19 years later and many many many courses later, very few we have been to have come close to capturing the fun of it.

Since our first visit to Manning's Amusements the course had a several upgrades, refurbishments and name changes - it was called 'Golf FX' when we first played and has been known as 'Magical Golf', 'Magical Golf FX' and 'Harry Putter and the Magical Crazy Golf'!

The green on the old first hole is still the only revolving one we've seen on our travels! It'll be interesting to see how the new course at Manning's evolves...

Hopefully the two new Street Golf courses being built at Manning's Amusements are as good as, or better than, the course they will be replacing.

Updates at Manning's Amusements and Beach Street in Felixstowe.

Over the last few years the team at Manning's have transformed the amusements and leisure area to incorporate Beach Street - a container yard for dining, drinking and entertainment.

You can get lovely sea views from some of the seating and we enjoyed meeting friends for tapas there on our last visit to Felixstowe. It was also fun having a go on some of the new arcade games.

Sea Road Adventure Golf in Felixstowe, Suffolk

A look at the Fantasia Adventure Golf course in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

We swung by the Fantasia Adventure Golf course on Sea Road in Felixstowe while visiting the Suffolk seaside town on Monday.

It's one of our most visited courses and was originally the 7th we went to on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The course opened in 1997/98 and was one of the first adventure golf layouts to open in the UK.

The course is planned to close for good...

Sadly the Fantasia Adventure Golf in Felixstowe, Suffolk is set to be demolished.

The course will be closed and the site turned into residential properties after plans were approved for the work to go ahead.

It's a shame to see minigolf courses close down. Fantasia Adventure Golf has always been fun to play.

We've just returned from a road-trip and visited several miniature golf courses along the way.

Southend Pier Crazy Golf

First up was a Mini Golf course at Horton's in Northampton. This indoor venue was spotted by our friend and minigolf rival Marc 'The Roller' Bazeley. Unfortunately we didn't get to play it as it wasn't open during our time in the town.
