Crazy Golf in Ipswich (Christchurch Park) - Crazy World of Minigolf Tour - Course Played #183

Crazy Golf in Ipswich (Christchurch Park) - Crazy World of Minigolf Tour - Course Played #183

Mini Golf in Christchurch Park, Ipswich
On Saturday 24th July 2010 we made a trip to Ipswich, Suffolk and the new Crazy Golf course that has been set up in the town's Christchurch Park.




We had been tipped off about its existence by Emily's sister who lives in the town (Emily originally hails from Ipswich).

When we arrived at 10.50am the course was being laid out.

By 11.15am we were able to play, however only 8-holes were set up. With the 9th hole about 1/7th of the way to being complete!?




It's £1.50 a round and you do get a scorecard with a game.

In our Irregular Mini Golf Tour Ipswich Classic Competition Emily won with a great 24(+8), to my 32(+16).

Gluten Free in Suffolk - Ipswich & Felixstowe

While in Ipswich and Felixstowe we managed to find some excellent Gluten Free restaurants and shops.

In Ipswich we went to Church's Bistro & Bar for lunch. They have a dedicated Gluten Free menu and a huge range of options.

I chose the Ham Hock Terrine followed by the 100% Beef Burger. Both were magnificent.




If you're a Coeliac and in the Ipswich area you must visit. And even if you're not, the 'normal' food was great too.

In Felixstowe we spotted that The Good Food Shop sells Gluten and Wheat Free Cakes and food. I had a really nice Iced Banana Cake.

On the way we also went to Cox's of Letchworth - a brilliant Fish & Chip Shop that does excellent Gluten Free Batter. While in Letchworth Garden City We also drove round the UK's first roundabout (six times)!
