Crazy Golf at Stoke Park in Guildford

A look back at our visit to the Crazy Golf course at Stoke Park in Guildford, Surrey on National Miniature Golf Day in 2016.


Back in 2008 the Crazy Golf course in Guildford's Stoke Park became the 75th course played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Our visit this time was as part of the Surrey Invitational Minigolf Tournament that took place on National Miniature Golf Day 2016.


The Swedish Felt B-Run course used to be a 12-hole layout. In 2016 it had grown to be a full 18-holes, and had a very different playing surface - with astroturf 'grass' and raised 'bunkers'.


Check out the photos of the new 18-hole Crazy Golf course layout below.















The course was built by City Golf Europe

It's a very tricky layout

This hole was nigh on impossible to play!

This one was trickier now it has thicker 'grass'

The longest hole on the course

A loop-di-loop with felt on the outside of the obstacle!

Another very difficult hole to play

We've played several Mulligan's courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour over the years. The latest two were in Milton Keynes last October where we enjoyed rounds on the Enchanted Forest and Underwater Kingdom 12-hole indoor courses at the Theatre District venue.

On a visit to Guildford, Surrey back in April 2012 my friend and minigolf rival Oliver 'The Machine' Florence competed in a number of sports and games. One of those wasn't playing Putting at Allen House Grounds as the course was not yet open for the season.

Crazy Golf in Stoke Park, Guildford

Back in 2008 the Crazy Golf course in Guildford's Stoke Park became the 75th course played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Last weekend it also became the 399th played. It has certainly changed a lot - even since my last visit in 2012.


The Swedish Felt B-Run course used to be a 12-hole layout. It's now a full 18-holes, and has a very different playing surface - with astroturf 'grass' and raised 'bunkers'. Quite different indeed.


Check out the photos of the new 18-hole Crazy Golf course layout below.

The Stoke Park Minigolf course is in a very nice setting. It's worth a play - but don't expect to get a low score!

Our visit this time was as part of the Surrey Invitational Minigolf Tournament that took place on National Miniature Golf Day 2016!
