Playing the Adventure Putting Green at Formby Golf Centre.
Heading for a day out in Southport Emily did a quick search online and spotted that Formby Golf Centre had a Minigolf course - so we had to swing by for a game.
There are a lot of obstacles on hole 4
The golf centre calls the course an 'Adventure Putting Green'.
On hole 8
It's an interesting layout and had a real mix of playing surface and obstacles, drawing inspiration from regular / big golf with it's long holes and lack of borders to rebound off, but with artificial Crazy Golf obstacles placed around the course. Including plastic volcanoes on the first and second holes!
Emily on hole 2
In our match-up Emily picked up the win 26-31, although I did ace hole one.
Hole 8
It was £3.50 a round and we received a nice welcome to the course, with the man there saying we could play a few rounds if we liked.
We replayed some of the tricky holes after our scoring round to see if we could get any more holes-in-one.
On hole 7
The 9-hole Mini Golf course at Formby Golf Centre was the 417th played and 714th miniature golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since September 2006.

Hole 4 from the green - the cup is within a flat loop obstacle - reach after putting through a loop-di-loop and over a choice of two bridges! That's Crazy Golf!
