KK’s Krazy Golf & Sports Bar in Burnley
KK’s Krazy Golf & Sports Bar in Burnley, Lancashire has an indoor Krazy Golf course.
Having a search for minigolf courses in Lancashire I found that an indoor layout opened at a venue in Burnley last year!
KK’s Krazy Golf & Sports Bar on Queen Street in Burnley opened in June 2024 and is home to an indoor 9-hole Krazy Golf course.
We haven't been to Burnley in some time and the town is long overdue a revisit. It'll be nice to check out KK’s Krazy Golf & Sports Bar on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
Visit the KK’s Krazy Golf & Sports Bar Facebook Page for more information.

Quest Krazy Golf
A look back at the Quest Krazy Golf course at Merry Hill shopping centre in Dudley.
We headed to Dudley to play the Krazy Golf course at Merry Hill shopping centre nine years ago this weekend.

The challenging 9-hole course was the 528th we visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Sadly the unique and colourful layout is no longer there.

Porth Island Krazy Golf in Newquay
A look at the Porth Island Krazy Golf course in Newquay, Cornwall.
We played the Porth Island Krazy Golf course in Newquay on our road-trip around the South West coast of England back in June 2015.
The course was similar to a Beton Concrete type of miniature golf course and interesting, if a little too difficult, to play.
The course was the 47th visited on our two-week holiday, the 377th played overall and the 646th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
Visit the Newquay Football Golf website for more information on the Porth Island Krazy Golf course.

A look back at the Krazy Golf course at Quest Merry Hill
Seven years ago today we headed to Dudley to play the Krazy Golf course at Merry Hill shopping centre.
The colourful and challenging 9-hole course was the 528th we visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Sadly it's no longer there.
As people look for extra entertainment options while shopping there has been an increase in shopping centre minigolf courses, both in the UK and around the world.

Crazy Golf at The Whitehouse Inn, Truro
There's a Crazy Golf course at The Whitehouse Inn, Truro, Cornwall.
I believe the minigolf course at The Whitehouse Inn is a fairly new addition to the pub. It's great to see a pub beer garden including the activity.
The course is a fibreglass layout made by the team at DK Fibreglass. I wonder if it's got a Humpty on it?
| The course at The Whitehouse Inn is similar to this fibreglass layout we've seen a number of times on our travels |
We've always been surprised at how few pubs have a miniature golf course set-up for customers. We'd certainly be inclined to visit more pubs and spend longer in them if they had fun activities too.

| The last pub beer garden Crazy Golf course we visited was at The Railway Hotel in Garswood, St Helens |
We're looking forward to having a game on The Whitehouse Inn's Krazy Golf course when we're next down that way.
Back in 2015 we spent two weeks exploring the south west coast and visited 62 minigolf courses. Only one of those was at a pub.
| Beer garden Crazy Golf at The Alexandra Inn in Penzance, Cornwall |
Minigolf is certainly booming at the moment and we have seen an increase in venues opening up as alternatives to the pub by offering a crazy, mini or adventure golf course combined with a bar, food and cocktails.
My Minigolf and Crazy Golf courses in Pub Beer Gardens blog post is due an update too as there have been a few more pub courses open up around the country.
Visit The Whitehouse Inn website for more information on the course.

Crazy Golf at Stanley Park in Blackpool
A revisit to the Crazy Golf course at Stanley Park in Blackpool.
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 there. One of those was the Crazy Golf course at Stanley Park.
We first visited and played the course back in April 2008.

Krazy Golf Lydney in the Forest of Dean
Playing the Crazy Golf course at Krazy Golf Lydney.
On our Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire road-trip we visited Krazy Golf Lydney in the Forest of Dean.
| Krazy Golf Lydney is in a nice spot in the Forest of Dean and can be found just off the A48 next to Taurus Crafts |
We received a very nice welcome and it was great to chat to Roger and Georgina about Krazy Golf Lydney and it's history.
![]() |
| There's plenty to do at Krazy Golf Lydney |
The course is an interesting 15-hole layout, with a unique setting. We had a feeling the site was previously something else and this was confirmed by Roger who told us the area was once a miniature railway and model village!
![]() |
| This wavy wooden ramp was a tricky hole to play |
Each of the 15-holes on the themed Krazy Golf Lydney course is based on tourism in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley. You can see the full list of attractions on the Krazy Golf Lydney website.
| Hole 1 has a Paintball Combat theme! |
Interestingly one of the holes at Lydney is based on the Wye Valle Mini Golf course at Symonds Yat West! That Roman-themed course was the 193rd we played back in August 2010.
| Another look at the wavy wooden hole |
Krazy Golf Lydney became the 468th played and 787th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

| We had a hoot playing at Krazy Golf Lydney |

| A railway hole! |
| This hole was interesting as the rules state that you must play your ball through at least four of the 'gates' before you could hole out |
| I got past the four gates in one go. The second putt was a longish one though |
| Through a maze |
| Emily's shots were on target |
| There wasn't much room to manouevre for your second shots on this hole |
In our match-up on the 15-hole course we tied on 38. However, as Emily scored a hole-in-one she picked up the win.
| Emily was the Lydney Krazy Golf Champion - what a nice touch to get a certificate. It's proudly displayed on our trophy shelf |
As well as the Crazy Golf course you can play Foot Pool, Air Hockey, Pool, Table Tennis and Table Football, and a selection of garden games.
| This was the second version of Foot Pool we'd seen on our recent travels. The first was at Pontins Prestatyn Sands |
Krazy Golf Lydney also has a Crazy Golf Pool table game! We hadn't seen or played one on our travels before!
| Crazy Golf Pool - another new game played on our adventures |
Check out Krazy Golf Lydney's website, Facebook and Twitter for more information, opening times and prices.
